RE in Reception

As part of our RE work, we have been learning about how Christians believe that God created the world. We talked about all of the wonderful, natural things in our world and then drew some amazing pictures. We have some fantastic artists in Reception. Well done!

Science fun in Reception

This afternoon, Reception explored some zoom in, zoom out pictures on Explorify. The children had to guess what the object was and say why they thought it was that. We had guesses such as ‘ I think it’s grass because it’s green’, ‘ I think it’s a plant because it has orange flowers on it’ […]

Year One’s Computing

What a challenge Year One have faced this week!

We’ve created our own avatar (and talked about how […]

Year Three Are Ready For The Rain!

Reception: The story of Diwali

This afternoon, Reception recreated the story of Rama and Sita exploring in the woods. They had a fantastic time and even made up their own Diwali song, accompanied by a range of musical instruments. Fantastic Reception.

The children were tasked with putting them back together again. There was lots of fantastic conversation about where each of the bones are located in the body and some […]

Year One’s Plant Hunt

Year One have been venturing around the school looking for a variety of plants 🌱 They had to work in pairs to search and then create a tally chart to chart how many of the different varieties they found. There were a surprising number of daisies still out and they found dandelion clocks to blow. […]
