We've never seen a child reading on the school roof before!  We wonder where else Year 1 can get caught reading!

We have continued our dance routine from last week.  We did very well with some of the complicated rhythms!

Look who has been reading in a strange place!

We look forward to seeing who else can find a funny place to read in.

Today, we are transforming our classroom into the World Famous Fraction Museum! We shall post some of our exhibits later today.

Today we were set the challenge of building Percy the Park Keeper's hut.  We had to work in groups to see which model was the best!

We hope you like the huts we created!

In Year 1 we are looking to see who has been caught reading in strange places.  If you find anywhere please take a photograph and send it in to school.

This afternoon we went into the Eco garden looking for winter treasures. We have popped them into some small bowls filled with water. We are hoping to go back tomorrow to see what has happened.

In maths today, we were given a challenge by James Bond.  MI6 believed that sweet manufacturers were deliberately holding back on our favourites.  We had to investigate the fractions of different packets and find out whether their suspicions were right.

The children expertly applied their knowledge of paint to produce this living flame effect surrounding their collaborative artwork featuring Samuel Pepys.

Just received a phone call from Mrs Angela Touray, the new Head Teacher at Serrekunda - our link school in the Gambia. We lost contact with them for a few months but now our link is up and running again. Later this term children from both schools will exchange letters about life in the two…

... and it's a boy. Well done, keep it up!

The children collected synonyms for fire to support our learning on the great fire of London. We then colour mixed shades for our fiery word choices ranging from burnt oranges, blazing reds and golden yellows.
