What a great week we have in the lead up to our Easter Holidays! It certainly has been action packed!

We have been learning about ‘Our European Neighbours’ in Geography – and have become experts in human & physical features, flags and capital cities – using a Top Trump style game. It has also given us another excuse to celebrate how many different countries our families are from. 

We have enjoyed the practical side of our Science unit on ‘How Plants Grow’ and daily checked how our broad beans were germinating (although some of the class did not believe that they would in cotton wool and water!) So yesterday, we planted them and they went home with a promise to record their growth and share on DoJo! We used other types of seeds when making bird feeders to help encourage birds into our gardens – It was great fun moulding the various ingredients with lard!

Tuesdays are our P.E. day and we have been lucky to have Mr. Poplett coaching us in ‘Chance to Shine Cricket’ in the mornings together with tennis in the afternoons! The children are looking forward to continuing developing their cricketing prowess at local clubs in Dynamos or All Stars cricket coaching sessions.

Finally, some children in the class were recognised for achieving 100% attendance this term – they had a great time on the bouncy castle (that took up most of the field!) and we are keeping our fingers crossed that the whole class can achieve this next term!
