We are exploring Judaism and the life of Moses. This week we acted out the story of Moses and the Red Sea taking on the roles of Moses, God, Pharaoh, the Israelites and the Egyptian Army.

Reception F were very excited to have a visit from PC Emma Dimmock. This links into our current topic ‘People who help us’. PC Emma Dimmock told us all about her job role, showed us all of the equipment that she uses and even let us try some of her uniform on :) the children had lots of opportunities to comment and ask questions and some of the children said they would like to become a police officer when they are grown up.

3HW have begun a new shared text in Whole Class Reading. They are reading about the adventures of Fantastic Mr Fox written by Roald Dahl. So far it has been full of fun and mischief. The children have studied the characters and cannot wait to find out how Mr Fox escapes the farmers.

In English our class text is ‘Looking after the egg’. After lots of fact finding and research it is time to categorise our knowledge under the sub headings - Habitat, Appearance, Diet and The egg in a non- chronological report.

Reception have been reading Zog and the Flying Doctors and discovered how Princess Pearl had cured her uncle of Orange Fever. This morning we had a letter from Princess Pearl who is now poorly herself with Yellow Fever. She asked us to search our forest for five particular ingredients for her potion and we managed to find them :) We hope that she feels better soon.

The children were told all about the water cycle and the journey of water across rivers and reservoirs. They were also informed about the importance of saving water when we wash, shower and clean our teeth.

Reception children joined the Severn Trent Water assembly today where we learned about the importance of water, the journey of water and even a look at the water cycle. They enjoyed meeting Robbie the raindrop and learned of ways we can save water. There were lots of games involved which made the learning fun.

The Year 1 children were shocked to find out that someone had visited their classrooms and made an awful mess! The visitor even had a snack whilst they were in there. Some of them even accused Mrs Wright-Jones of being our secret visitor because she had eaten oats for her breakfast. They all were using their inference skills to think of questions so that they could find out more clues about who it was. We even asked Mr Walker - our caretaker - to check the cameras to see if t

A race to answer questions brought lots of energy, teamwork, and sharp thinking to our revision session today.

We’ve had a fun-filled week in Nursery exploring ' The Gingerbread Man'  and  Easter  🐰🍪🥚. The children took part in Easter activities, including an Easter egg hunt, making chocolate rice krispy cakes, decorating Easter eggs, making Easter cards and bunny faces. 🎨🐣.
