This afternoon we have been talking about life cycles and metamorphosis. We then created the life cycle of a butterfly using different shapes of pasta to represent each stage.

KS1 Movie Night
Thursday 1st February 15:00 – 16:30
As part of the expedition, we will be learning how bees and insects play an important role in helping our planet survive.
We want to invite the children to attend the KS1 Movie Night. We will be watching The Bee Movie.
The event is free to attend. However, we would appreciate any donations to help our birds survive in our eco-garden. This could be some bird feed, feeders, fat balls or a homemade bird feeder.
Please could you complete the form attached to book a place.
KS1 Playground Area – We need your help
Yesterday, the children began to develop the mini eco garden by planting a fruit orchard.
To help the trees have time to grow, please could we ask that people do not walk on the grass areas and stick to the paths when dropping off and collecting from school.
Thank you in advance for your help in protecting our orchard.
Bird Experts 🦅
This afternoon 1/2K took part in an online learning lesson all about Birds. As part of the lesson we learned about lots of different varieties of birds that we might find here in the U.K. and what we can do to help look after them as lots of birds are losing their habitats.
We had lots of fun taking part in the quiz online!
Bird experts
This afternoon, we had a webinar with experts that taught us about habitats and biodiversity. We were able to use the knowledge that we have already learned to answer questions about habitats and birds. There are over 11,000 different bird species and we hope to be able to identify some of them when we do our Big Bird Watch event next week!

Building Habitats: Protecting our Planet!
Key Stage 1 have been learning about the importance of plants and trees to our planet but also about how they provide habitats for birds and other wildlife. Today, we started work on our final product for our expedition. Using our experts from the Council, we have planted 5 fruit trees to create a mini-orchard and also many different types of plants to create a hedgerow along the boundary of the fence.
We learnt about how to care for our newly planted saplings and also how we can protect them whilst they are still establishing themselves in their new home. We can’t wait to see how they grow and develop in the months and years to come. Hopefully, one day, we will have apples, pears, cherries and plums to eat!
The trees and hedges were kindly provided by the Tree Council as part of their Orchards for Schools project.

What do we want?
All about the shape!
Fabulous writers!
The children in 2L have been busy researching and writing about flamingos this week as part of our first Case Study on Air. They have written great reports using subheadings, paragraphs and photo’s. The children have tried their best to do their neatest handwriting and everyone did a beautiful piece of work
A big shout out to the children below who told Mr Sprakes all about their learning.
PE ⚽️
In our PE lesson this week, we were practicing dribbling the ball using small touches. The children were then asked to work as a team to race each other to see who could complete the course the fastest.
The children we then challenged further by having more cones to move through. We had lots of fun with Coach Morgan & Coach Adam!
Big Congratulations to Lola and Joe, our sports stars of the week! 🌟
