The Essex Dance Company bring their group over to North Devon every year for their week-long dance extravaganza. This week, Class 3 were treated to many dances and were challenged to learn and perform a few sequences of their own too. Hopefully, the video clips work!
Update later! But here's Oscar so far: It's been fun today and we won one match so far and lost three at the moment. It’s also been hot. We played well but we've let a few points through. It has been tiring and some of the matches have been hard. Probably the hardest was Caen; they scored 20 and we [...]
Thanks to those who came this afternoon... We know there's only a couple of weeks left until we break up but we thought it would be nice to offer an opportunity to look round the school, see what it was like in your child's classroom and to see what they'd done over the year. Lots taking place - here's a [...]
A new piece of software we've purchased is TTRockStars. It's a Times-Tables tester but put into a Rock Star context where you can earn money gigging, get new backgrounds, personalise your character and purchase new instruments. It's also done completely anonymously... meet Roxy Friedman (me!) Class 3 and 4 have been using this a little over the year, but only when [...]
Class 3 and 4 spent the whole day on Croyde Beach today. The activities included; surfing, coasteering, beach volleyball, a talk from the RNLI and a walk with the Beach Ranger. We were so lucky with the weather. It's days like today that make you realise how lucky we are to live in this spectacular part of the world. A [...]
Started off writing our own aria with The Royal Shakespeare Opera Company... Danced a ceilidh (loads of fun but extremely hot!)... We sang Gospel, and then some Rock & Pop. A lovely, lovely day (a Bill Withers song) with some, now, very hot and tired children!
As part of our science unit, class 4 planned and led PE activities for class 3 to increase heart rate and promote the importance of exercise in a healthy lifestyle . Great co-operation and support seen all over the field 😀
Class 3 had a great day visiting Cheddar man (who is 10,000 years old) today. We walked through Gough's cave which was inhabited by Cheddar man and his people over 10,000 years ago and learnt that its constant air temperature of 11 degrees made it a great place to live when winter temperatures at that time in Britain could reach [...]
Class 3 have just returned from an action packed overnight residential to St George's House - far, far away in the little known village of Georgeham! It's been a great couple of days, with the children really making the most of the activities and opportunities they have had. From enjoying a perfect afternoon paddling in Ilfracombe harbour on Monday night, [...]
I've heard they're having a lovely time and that I missed the Mars Bar sauce and the chocolate cake! Looking forward to hearing more tomorrow!
