Y2 PE
Y2 started the Gymnastics unit 'balance and co-ordination' today. The children worked so hard and used their growth mindset when balancing on the higher equipment. Well done Year 2!
Reception Class - Junior Jam!
We had a very exciting morning in Reception today as we had three new teachers join us from Junior Jam! Miss McDonald is our new music teacher. The children practiced playing the glockenspiel, listening to the high and low pitches that the instrument made. Mr Miakukila will be teaching us French this year. The class practiced how to say 'hello' and 'goodbye' today! And finally Mr B is our p.e teacher. Today we worked on call and response in Mr B's bean game! The children especially liked being 'jelly beans' jiggling across the playground. Junior Jam will hold these lessons every Tuesday morning, we have lots of fun and lots of learning ahead!
Y1 - RE - Harvest
Year one have enjoyed talking about Harvest in our R.E lesson today, and where all different types of food come from. Year one all tried 3 different types of apple and we loved the Pink Lady apples, they are lovely and sweet.
St James over Darwen Church - Book of Commemoration

First Week in Pre School

Y6 Skills Builder Afternoon
On Friday afternoon we had a skills builder teamwork project all about fashion design. The children had to work together in teams positively to design and make either a hat or a top. I think you’ll agree that they all created some fabulous and very creative designs!
Y2 Growth Mindset
Y2 have been thinking about the importance of having a positive growth mindset and how this helps with our learning. After listening to the story 'Giraffes can't dance', the children were set the challenge to make a giraffe using marshmallows and toothpicks. The children worked so hard and persevered, even when they found it tricky. Well done Year 2!
Reception Class Lunchtime
Reception Class have had a wonderful first week in school. Here they are enjoying their first lunch with us. They were able to carry their own tray and select their meals. Well done!
