Orange class worked brilliantly together in teams on these BeeBot space mats.
Wow! What a morning Year 2 had!
To launch our new topic in Term 3 about the Great Fire of London, we made our very own Tudor houses. We took them outside and recreated a street scene in London. Suddenly, our houses caught fire and we watched from a safe distance as they burnt to the ground just like in September 1666!
To remember, thank and show respect to our armed forces, each class created a giant poppy for their classroom. We held these during our 2-minutes silence on 11/11/21.
Year 6 children have been voting for our new House Captains and Sports Captains.
Please keep checking back for more photos each day!
Due to COVID restrictions, our Sports Days have had to look a bit different this year. We have continued to offer a range of experiences for the children, while adhering to government and LA guidance, and have offered KS2 children the competitive aspects of Sports Day as well.
During Sports Days, children had the opportunity to practice/compete in activities relating to:
- Golf
- Croquet
- Football (penalties)
- Basketball
- Agility
- Tennis
- Running
- Fitness
- Throwing
- Jumping
- Balance
- Hockey
Please take a look at some photos from our Sports Day experiences...
The children have been enjoying learning about Japan to celebrate this year's Olympics through art, dance, drama, music and sport.
We clapped for our carers, now we've clapped for our children.
Our children are the first generation to be confined to their homes; to have their freedom taken away; to not be able to play with their friends.
On the last day of the Spring Term, all staff joined together, watched on by our pupils, to clap for them. We wanted to let them know how much we appreciate them, that we applaud them and that we thank them.
Schools across the county Clapped for Children with Child Friendly Gloucestershire.
Year 2 definitely had the chance to answer our big question on a ‘WOW’ day this week. The day began with the children immersing their senses in the spices, smells and sounds of India. Both classrooms were full of fun, laughter and discussion about Indian clothing, food, music and artefacts.. After this, the children got to shower the playground in powder paint, just as people would do in the festival of colours called Holi. Rangoli patterns were also made with some very intricate and imaginative designs. The highlight of the day was the Indian banquet and the children got to try a range of dishes such as pilau rice, samosas, onion bhajis, chicken bhuna, kolee molee and the favourite...naan bread!
“I wish we could turn back time and eat all of that food all over again” Zeke, Blue Class.
Thank you so much to Indian Brasserie for cooking such a delicious feast for us.
We rounded off the day with some traditional Indian Dance, which was more of a shuffle than a dance after all the food we consumed!
It was lovely to have a special topic day, which we have not been able to do for so long.
This year, to support and raise money for Comic Relief, we invited children and staff to come dressed as either someone funny OR a superhero. Please take a look at some of our hilarious and super costumes below.
We also explored what makes us laugh and what makes us feel happy. Below our photos, you'll find some of the things that make us happy!
