World Book Day in Mrs Sturrock’s Class

What a fantastic day we have all had today celebrating World Book Day!

We have taken part in lots of exciting activities including a costume parade, a reading quiz, masked reader contest, book scavenger hunt, sketching activities to be like a real illustrator and lots of story times where we read some really funny books. We went to base camp and enjoyed a delicious cookie, while Mrs Sturrock read us a story about a crocodile, who at the end of our story, jumped out of the book and ran away! We used our imagination to find clues in our base camp area to find where the crocodile went next once he’d jumped out of the book. There were some great ideas.

The story boxes that were sent in with the children were super. The children enjoyed sharing them with the class.

Take a look at some of our photos from the day including photos of our amazing costumes too!

We hope you have enjoyed looking at our pictures. We are looking forward to next year’s World Book Day already! 😊

World Book Day in Miss Fisher’s class.

What an amazing day we have had in Year 1 for World Book Day!

We had an amazing assembly, a book character quiz, a book swap, a book scavenger hunt, a ‘drop everything and read’ session, illustration tutorials and finally a cosy forest school story time with a cookie.

As always the children have made us proud with their enthusiasm, behaviour and attitude as they totally immersed themselves into all of the activities.

 

 

World Book Day forest school.

Forest school for Year 1 is on tomorrow but as it’s dry, wellies are optional, we’re only out for a forest school story time for World Book Day.

BeSMART cup treat – Mrs Evans/Mrs Sturrock’s class

Congratulations to Mrs Sturrock and Mrs Evans’ class who have won the BeSMART cup.

As their special treat the children have voted to watch a film with popcorn and a blanket or cuddly toy.

This treat will take place on Friday 7th March (this Friday) in the afternoon.

The children can bring in a cuddly toy or blanket to school with them if they wish. Please ensure anything brought in is clearly named.

If you do not want your child to take part in this, please let Mrs Sturrock or Mrs Wilmot know by the end of the day on Thursday (6.3.25).

Eatwell Project

Today we took part in ‘The Eatwell Project’. We had lots of fun learning about different types of vegetables. We then discussed if we liked the smell, feel and taste of them. We were then taught why we must try to have Five A Day and the importance of vitamins and minerals in our body.

 

NSPCC Speak Out Stay Safe

We will be participating in the NSPCC’s Speak Out Stay Safe programme during the week starting 17th March. This important initiative aims to educate children about the different forms of abuse, how to recognise the signs, and the importance of speaking out to stay safe. The programme includes engaging virtual assemblies and interactive classroom activities designed to empower children with the knowledge and confidence to seek help if needed. We believe this programme will greatly benefit our students and support our school’s safeguarding efforts. Please see the attached letter for more information.
