Our trip to Weston Park

Class 4 had a fantastic time today at Weston Park. We had a tour of the house and heard all about what it was like to live there in Victorian times as well as looking carefully at artefacts and features in the house. We then had a lovely time doing some pond dipping this afternoon where we had to identify the creatures we had caught using an identification key. We then ended the day with a play on the adventure playground! All in all it was a brilliant day and I’d like to say a very big ‘well done’ to Class 4 for their excellent behaviour, you were a pleasure to take out for the day!

Class 4 Superstars Competition

Some children from Class 4 represented Bicton at a sports competition at Thomas Adams School on Monday. They competed against some other primary schools in different sporting activities. All the children worked really hard and came in 5th place. Well done for all your hard work and excellent behaviour!

Strange goings on….

There have been some very strange goings on in our forest school area lately. Class 4 have been investigating what it is and found some very odd objects and what appeared to be some sort of slime! Feel free to ask someone in Class 4 what their theory is!

No Drama Club this Week

Just a reminder (the children were informed last week), there will be no drama club tomorrow.

Thank you.

Outdoor Activities – Wellies and Waterproof Needed

Dear Parents,

 Class 4 will be spending some time doing activities outside this week.  Given the weather forecast, it would therefore be very useful if your child could bring in wellies and a waterproof coat each day as we will adjust which times these activities take place according to the daily weather.

 We will also be doing an outing to the woodland area outside school. Please let me know if you have any concerns about this.

Thank you for your continued support.
