The 3 Billy Goats Gruff

Class 1 have been looking at the story ‘The 3 Billy Goats Gruff’ this week. Today the children worked in groups to act out the story with one person acting as the narrator. They also used the bridges in the play area to act as a prop for the goats to cross. There was some fantastic acting and good use of character voices!

Welcome Back!

It was lovely to see so many smiling faces coming on to the playground this morning and children have enjoyed sharing their news today from the Easter holiday.

Sunny weather

Judging from the array of tanned faces today, it seems as though lots of children enjoyed and made the most of the sunny weather last week! As the warm weather looks as though it is here to stay for this week at least, it might be a good idea for your child to bring a hat to school to wear at break-times. Drinking water is always available in school but they are welcome to bring a drink to school as well.

Letter home

A letter has been sent home today with every child with information regarding chicken pox and scarlet fever. If the letter does not reach you, please do not hesitate to ask for a copy from the School Office.

Calendar

Please remember to check the calendar for clubs, etc. as it has been updated over the weekend so will differ to the weekly email sent last Friday.

Many thanks.

Science in Class 1

Class 1 have been working hard this term in science finding out about different materials. Their task this week was to use their knowledge to talk about what materials would make a good shelter for Pebbles (our class penguin!). They decided that it needed to be waterproof so they planned an investigation to test which materials were waterproof or not. They also discussed how they would test a material to check it was waterproof, what will happen to the water as they tested it, what equipment they would need and how they would make it a fair test. The materials they decided to test were wood, tin foil, paper, card, plastic and cotton. They found out that wood, plastic and tin foil were the most waterproof.

Well done Class 1!
