Troll faces

 Look at our scary troll faces!

We have been thinking this week about words we can use to describe the troll… mean, ugly, angry, scary, frightening, smelly, wrinkly…

Can you think of any more? 

World Book Day

We had a fabulous week this week celebrating World Book Day. We came to school dressed as our favourite book character!

There were some amazing costumes!

The theme for World Book Day this year was ‘Share a Story’ so our day including several different storytelling sessions. During assembly with Miss Stathers, the whole school did a choral rehearsal of ‘The Three Little Pigs’ using sounds instead of words!

In the afternoon,  we split into our houses to share a story. The teachers in each house read their favourite stories and then the children found a buddy to share a story with.

The older children were fantastic with the younger children.

We had a brilliant day and can’t wait for next year!

Y5 Reading Stars

This morning we had a visit from Callum Burton (goal keeper for Hull City). Callum had come in to present certificates to children who have successfully completed the Premier League’s ‘Reading Stars’ program, which Tigers Trust have been delivering for the past eight weeks.

The children have been working incredibly hard on their reading and have made some excellent progress and developed their love for reading! Well done!

Certificates all round for their hard work! 

The children learning about the importance of reading. 

The school was also presented with a poetry pack to widen children’s reading choices.
