Reverand Ian joined us today to talk to us about helping others and that Jesus taught us to help others before we help ourselves. We discussed how even using our words in a positive way can be helpful.
We’ve had lots of Easter fun this week in Nursery.
We have….
- made Easter cards;
- made Easter baskets;
- decorated Easter bunny headbands;
- made some delicious chocolate Easter cakes;
- played Easter games;
- went on an egg hunt;
- had fun ‘egg rolling’.
Have a wonderful Easter break!
We have had a very busy week in Reception. We have been learning about the Easter Story and the build up to Easter. The importance of Easter for Christians and what symbols represent Easter. We have been making chicks, eggs, baskets, chocolate nest, retelling the story of Easter and so much more! Ask us to tell you about Easter and when you are supposed to have Easter eggs!
Wow,wow,wow! Thank you to each an every one of you who entered our ‘decorated’ egg competition. It has been very difficult choosing the winners as the entries were all eggstremely eggstatic! Winners will be revealed in tomorrows’ celebration assembly.
We loved making our decorated eggs for our Easter competition!
Reverend Ian from St Johns Church joined us for our Easter Celebration assembly. We looked at the Easter Story and how sometimes the impossible can happen. Easter is a sign of new life and new hope and that we should rejoice in the lessons Jesus taught us.
Happy Easter!
Year 5 have been extremely lucky to learn some new dance moves!
We took part in an Indian dance work-shop and learnt the steps to a very famous song, “Jai Ho”. We put the steps together in sequence and performed our work-shop dance as a year group.
Everyone was on board learning the moves, and having a lot of fun on the way.
Well done Year 5!
During RE day Year 1 were looking at how Jesus is special to Christians. We looked at how Jesus was special to God and Jesus returned that feeling by making us feel that we are special too. We found out about the stories Jesus told and how they impact on our lives. We also looked at some symbols that were important in the Christian faith.
On Monday, in RE 4 Red looked at how Christians believe that Jesus is the light of the world. We learned that this metaphor is used because Jesus lights a path for Christians, it is also a symbol of hope and warmth.
As part of this, Year 4 developed their previous skills of making stained glass windows, this time adding symbols of light. Take a Look.
Wow, wow, wow! Reception were absolute superstars in the Christmas Nativity show, they have worked their socks off learning lots of songs and lines and are all truly magnificent stars in the making. We definitely have some budding actors and musicians amongst them and the Early Years team are bursting with pride.
