Family Easter Egg Competition
Dear Parents/Carers, Our annual Family Easter Egg Competition is almost here! This year’s theme is “All Things Easter”, so let your creativity shine! You could design your eggs based on: • Easter animals like chicks, bunnies, or lambs • Traditional Easter symbols such as crosses, baskets, or spring flowers • Fun Easter scenes like an egg hunt or a chocolate feast • Characters with an Easter twist—perhaps an “Egg Minion” or a “Bunny Superhero”! All entries should be clearly labelled with your child’s name and class and brought into school by Wednesday, 9th April. The winners will be announced during worship on Thursday, 10th April. Good luck—we’re egg-cited to see your fantastic creations!
Nursery - World Book Day! Creating A Mr Potato Head - Literacy
For world book day this year the children were tasked with decorating a potato! In Nursery class we made Mr Potato heads using different facial features and accessories. The children used their knowledge of facial proportions to select and place the correct features on their potatoes. They then chose from a variety of accessories, shoes, bags, hats etc. The children did a fabulous job and their potatoes turned out amazing! Well done everyone, what a great way to celebrate world book day.
Year 1 - Science - Testing For Toughness
Year 1 carried out an investigation into toughness, aiming to identify which materials were strong and which were weak. As part of a fair test, they struck each material with a hammer and observed the results. They discovered that some materials, like plastic bottles, changed shape, while others, such as metal bowls, remained unchanged.
Reception’s Exciting World Book Day Celebration!
Reception had a fantastic time celebrating World Book Day this year! Our chosen story was Supertato, and the children were absolutely thrilled by the adventures of Evil Pea and his mischievous antics. In the afternoon, they got creative by decorating their own potatoes to represent their favorite characters from the story. To end the day, we visited the library to swap our books and enjoyed sharing the Supertato story with our grown-ups. It was a wonderful day full of fun, creativity, and a love for reading!
Year 1 - Maths - Measuring Using Centimeters
Year 1 used rulers to measure various objects around the classroom in centimeters. They were very careful to line up the object to 0 on the ruler and look at where the object ended to work out its length.
