Forest school fun

This afternoon we have had so many amazing, imaginary adventures in forest school.

We had pretend birthday parties, we made pirate ships using the logs and planks and we role played being Mr Thomas.

Super teamwork Year 1 you were all showing fantastic friendship skills which is our value of the month for November.

Update 23.11.20

Dear Parents/Carers,

 

As part of our ongoing risk assessment, we need to ensure levels of ventilation across the school are high. We are told this constant movement of fresh air helps us keep our school safer.

 

This means that we need to have periods of time where the doors to classrooms and windows are left open. Before now, this was not too much of an issue but now the temperatures are dropping it could be.

 

Please ensure your children are adequately dressed e.g. with an extra layer under their shirt and of course please make sure they have a coat.

 

We continue to do all we can to protect everyone in our school, but we need your help along the way.

 

As ever…

 

  • Keep your children off school if they are displaying symptoms (do not risk it for the sake of everyone else).
  • Maintain social distance yourselves at all times and wear a mask.
  • Make sure children wash hands before arriving at school and immediately when they come home.
  • Keep us up to date – communication is key at this time.

 

If in doubt, call the office (01952 387720) and someone will do their best to help you.

Junk Modelling Week in Year 1

We have absolutely loved being builders and engineers this week. We had SO much recycling brought in from home so thank you very much! The children loved looking through all of the different shapes and materials we had. They thought carefully about what they needed and the best way to join them together. We were all very excited to bring our models home and share them with you! 🙂

Remembrance Day in Year 1

Today, we learnt all about Remembrance Day and reflected on why it is such an important day. We all participated in a two minute silence and wrote sentences to answer quiz questions about Remembrance Day. We took part in our ‘11’ challenge by completing 11 laps of the bicycle track.
