Science club has got off to a great start with ten budding Year 2 scientists. Week one saw the children engaging in a ‘Magic Ball’ activity and week two involved making a laughing chicken. The children work enthusiastically during the club and the staff are so impressed with their scientific knowledge. All of the children are currently growing an alligator at home with the help of their parents. We will all look forward to the next session.
Please find below a selection of pictures taken at the recent Y2 trip to Beamish and a number of photos from Y2KB class assembly.
Our children have taken part in a wide variety of different sporting events and have done extremely well.
It’s been a busy seven weeks but our reception children are well and truly settled into their new classes. Here are a few pictures of their first few days captured at the start of the term.
Martin Lightfoot from the RNLI visited school today to deliver assemblies to both our Infant and Junior children. He talked to them about the dangers of being near water and the 4 rules they can follow to keep themselves safe. The 4 rules are: Stop and Think, Stay Together, Float and Call 999 or 112. The children were very responsive to Martin’s questions and he was very impressed by them. The children who were in Mrs Allan’s class last year then presented the RNLI with a cheque for £116.40 that they had raised in the summer from the sale of artwork. The RNLI receives no government funding and relies on fundraising efforts.
In Y2 the children have been reading a range of fantasy stories and decided to end the topic with a day dressed as their favourite character. Don’t they look fantastic in their costumes.
Reception had their own mini sports morning this week and enjoyed doing many team events which tested their speed, balance, agility and team working skills.
Great work Reception!
