Caring Crew❤️

As part of our Crew Curriculum this term we have been discussing Mental Wellbeing and the importance of being mentally healthy as well as physically healthy.
Some of the strategies we talked about this morning to help our wellbeing included practicing gratitude, showing kindness and compassion for others and keeping physically active.
we then discussed the things that make us happy. We talked about our favourite books, films, activities and food; our favourite things!

Reading Plus

23rd February 2024Mrs Lewis

This week some children in Year 1 and 2 have been enjoying trying our new reading platform, ‘Reading Plus.’ The children have gone home covered in stickers for their hard work and they have loved improving their comprehension and vocabulary. Keep it up everyone!

Pond Habitats 🐸🐟

23rd February 2024Joshua Meade

Yesterday we looked at habitats for fish and amphibians. We made sure our ‘pond habitat’ had fresh, clean, calm water. As well as lilypads, rocks, green leaves, sticks, branches and water plants, along with some sand and soil at the bottom.

Stop Polluting Our Oceans 🌊

23rd February 2024Joshua Meade

SAVE OUR SEAS! In geography today we learnt about the Mariana Trench which is the deepest part of the ocean on Earth. Sadly, pollution is having a huge impact on our oceans and sea creatures! We discussed and explored how we need to stop single use plastic, recycle and reuse. The children created some powerful posters! #LovePlover

Pond Habitats 🐸

This afternoon, 1/2K created our own pond. We discussed what we would need to create our pond. We found out we would need fresh water (not salt water), plants and rocks.

World Book Day 2024

22nd February 2024Mrs Graves

We are looking forward to celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 7th March.

It would be lovely to see the children dressed up as their favourite book character, but please don’t feel like you have to rush out and buy a costume!

ÂŁ1 Book Vouchers will be given to children on the day which can be spent in most supermarkets and book shops, but we do also have a Book Fayre coming into school the following week, and children can put their voucher towards the cost of a book at that event – more details to follow soon.

More information can be found on https://www.worldbookday.com

SAVE OUR SEAS!

21st February 2024Abigale Ketteringham

This afternoon in 1/2K we learned about pollution in more detail. We learned that pollution is usually rubbish that has been dumped into the rivers and carried out to sea. We found out that it can end up in the deepest part of the ocean; The Mariana Trench. We practiced our recycling by sorting different objects into plastic, metal and paper. Then we created posters to help raise awareness about sea pollution and what it is doing to the animals.
