Thank you 1M for being the best children and class ever! So many beautiful children with different skills, abilities and personalities who have all grown and shone in one way or another. I will miss you all dearly.

Thank you to our wonderful 1M grown ups too for your continuous cooperation, communication and generosity – it is greatly appreciated!

Have a lovely summer 1M crew, stay safe, stay cool and have lots of fun! Mr Meade #LovePlover

YEAR 1/2 – FAITH DAY.

17th July 2024Abigale Ketteringham

Today we have been learning about a very special person in Buddhism. We shared the story of how Buddhism came to be, the story of Siddhartha Gautama and the journey he went on. After sharing the story and we engaged in a true or false quiz in teams. Here are our champions!

Then we talked about what kind of person he is and used adjectives to describe him. We came up with adjectives like caring, patient, curious, content and wise. We then used our word bank turned them into sentences.

We then followed a guided meditation, just like Buddha did under the Bodhi tree. This was led by a Monk. The children practiced the most popular breathing meditations in the world.

Red Crew Reward

The children from red crews in KS1 had a great afternoon! As the winning Crew for Spring term, they enjoyed a water fight and even though it wasn’t very sunny, their smiles and laughter were enough to brighten the dull day. Congratulations to Crew Lewis and Ketteringham!

Today we learned about the religion of Buddhism! We sequenced the story of Buddha. Then used words to describe the calming influence of Buddha. Did some meditation and completed a Kahoot quiz. #LovePlover

When we grow up! The new 2L

12th July 2024Mrs Lewis

What a busy two days we’ve had in 2L! We’ve been thinking about positive and negative changes and how we’re all special and unique. The children enjoyed getting to know their new surroundings, new adults and new children in class. We’ve been so busy thinking about our aspirations for the future and we were lucky to have some visitors come and tell us about their exciting careers.

I can’t wait for our Y2 adventure to begin in August!

A taste of the new 2P.

12th July 2024Mr Pickering

It has been great getting to meet the new 2P for next year. We have enjoyed 2 days together where we have explored whether change is a positive or negative thing. It was decided that it could sometimes be both. One child said that change, ‘Was a chance to challenge ourselves to be better’. We shared what made us special and created special stars to show the class. During our active learning, we played a game where we had to focus, listen and watch our classmates. We copied the actions that they were doing to show we were giving them our attention.

Today we explored our aspirations for the future. We shared examples of the jobs we could do when we grew up and enjoyed two expert visitors who taught us all about jobs on cruise ships and in the army. We then created a poster to share what we wanted to be when we grew up. I can’t wait to get the new class back together again in August.
