Year 3 Library Time

By Miss L STEWART21st February 2023

Year 3 have had a wonderful time in our school’s fantastic Library today exploring the amazing genres of books it has to offer.  We ensured that we read the Blurb of our chosen book first to see if it captured our interest, rather than judging the book by its cover, before finding a comfortable spot to settle down and lose ourselves for a little while. We knew to treat our books with respect and place them back on the appropriate shelf once we had finished before choosing yet another book. Our quiet, hushed tone also allowed for everyone to enjoy their quality reading time too…we hope to visit again soon!

Miss Stathers’ class were very excited to end the half term with a trip to the school library. 

We had the opportunity to spend time looking at the amazing books and we even had chance to read some.

Some of us read books to ourselves, some of us read books to each other and some of us shared books and read them together.

There is so many books to choose from we had to choose carefully.

We looked at the illustrations on the front of the book and read the blurb on the back to help us decide which ones we wanted to read.

At the end of the afternoon Mrs Smith read us a story. She read ‘Stick Man’ because it was one of her girls favourite books when they were little. We were all really happy when Stick man finally got home.

There were so many books to choose from we can’t wait to go back!

Letter Writing in Year 2

By Miss P STATHERS10th February 2023

Year 2’s non-narrative unit this half term has been letters. They looked at different letters and identified the features of a letter. Then we learned about statement sentences and wrote our own questions and statements. As an end outcome, we thought of questions to ask King Charles III and wrote a letter to him. We then walked to the post box to post our letters! We hope that we get a reply!

Year 5 Creative and Performing Arts Day – Sirius

By Mr J SUTTON20th January 2023

Today the year 5’s visited Sirius Academy to partake in an amazing day of Creative and Performing Arts. The children loved watching the performance ‘The Adam’s Family’ before being part of the crew. Children were given workshops to enhance their drama skills and become an undead cast member before practicing and performing a dance routine. They also got the chance to add to the set of the final show through creating props that will be used on the actual performance nights!
