It was fantastic to work with class 2 and class 3 today to think about why we raise money for Children in Need. We thought about what we would like our pound to go towards. Here are some of the suggestions: Joel-"I would like my pound to give everyone a warm cosy home, I know a pound won't be enough [...]
Class 2 have been busy in maths today working on creating symmetrical patterns and models. We also did lots of folding to find lines of symmetry in 2d shapes 😀
It's lovely to have our parents come and have a look around the school, seeing their children active and learning and finding out how the classroom works, rather than hearing about it, or not (!), over the dinner table. Thanks for coming! ...And a perfect opportunity to spread out lost property out, and offer the use of our Sharpie Pen!

We found out about life in a castle and learnt that they only used a spoon and knife, with a piece of stale bread for a plate. We then had [...]

A big well done to Year 2 for an excellent sleepover! Enjoy the photos!
We had an excellent day today, walking from Lee Bridge, down to Lee and then on to Bennett's Mouth and up to Mortehoe - just under four and a half miles! The weather made it a perfect day to appreciate our local environment. The hedgerows, woods and meadows were teaming with flowers; it was stunning! We had fun following the [...]
