In Year 1, we have been making bags for a fairy. We designed our bag yesterday and then today we made them. We had lots of rules that we had to follow so that the bag was right for the fairies, for example it needed to be small so they can carry it and it also cannot harm any nature so flowers were off limits! We took great pride in our creations and we were so proud of how our bags turned out and we hope the fairies love them just as much as we do!
This week in 4 Red we have been learning about the ‘tempo’ of music and how that can effect how music makes you feel. We explored this by creating some artwork inspired by music with different tempos The children have also composed some of their own pieces of music in the major key of C.

What a fabulous afternoon Reception had! Thank you to all the adults who came to support our stay and play! The children were so excited to show everyone around and it was lovely to see them proudly showing off! ❤️⭐️❤️
As part of our Learning Means The World Theme, ‘Powhatten People’, we found out that Pochahontas attended a masquerade ball and had to learn how to dance. This was very different from the customs she was used to in her tribe. We made our own masquerade masks and learned how to do a dance typical for that era.
A great week in Reception. We are using Rainbow Fish for our English jobs. There has been so much creativity and writing linked to this fabulous story! Reception showing off their talents as always ❤️
We’ve had an brillint day at Jarrow Hall, learning all about Anglo Saxon Life. The children took part in three workshops. Learning about ‘crime and punishiment’, ‘life on the farm’ and ‘making textiles’. We also enjoyed listening to the tale of Beawulf, told around a firepit.
