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.
Some of year 2 were lucky enough to be invited to take part in an orienteering session at Marine Park. They received a map and had to look for different numbered stations around the park. Each of these stations had a letter, number and a picture. The children had to collect the data from each station to fill in their quiz sheet at the end. The children were all amazing and we have had a brilliant afternoon.
Another busy week in Reception. We are showing off our independent writing, maths skills, creativity and simply how amazing we are ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️
Year 2 have been making our own birds as part of our Going Wild’ theme. We have loved learning about the elephant bird so we decided to try and make one. We used our Design and Technology skills to sew around our shape. We then added stuffing, closed our bird with more stitches then added on eyes and wings. I think you’ll agree we are SEW great!
We have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Amy who was from a company called Active Futures. Active Futures run a range of sporting activities around the North East and have been running some of these in our local area. This week the children engaged in an activity called Futsal which is like a smaller scale game of football. Amy showed the children some tricks to do with the football and then played lots of games. The children really enjoyed their sessions and even received a leaflet to take home with all of the information about the activities that Active Futures run. Please feel free to have a look and sign up to the activities!
Reception had a fabulous time experiencing Futsal this week!
As part of our ‘Picture Our Planet’ theme we have been learning about the brazilian artist, Romero Britto. Inspired by his colourful work, we decided to create a textile piece of art, using the technique of layering.
To celebrate VE day, we dressed in red, white and blue and enjoyed a picnic outside.
Year 4 have demonstrated their excellent multiplication skills today in Mathematics.
Year 2 have really enjoyed taking part in our Futsal session. We tried lots of new tricks like The Ronaldo step over, The Neymar Rocket and the side step pass. It was so much fun!
