We are designers

6th October 2025Stuart Longley

This term, we have been designing kindness badges as part of our expedition: How can I be a hero in my community?

The children looked at different designs for badges and thought about messages they could include on their badges.

The children have been using their design technology skills to create their badges.

They chose the correct materials, added them to the machine and then created their final product badge. We can’t wait to share these with you later in the term.

Cake Completed

1st October 2025Joshua Meade

Today we got to decorate our cake. We mixed the icing, added sprinkles and covered out cake, finishing with cherries on top! Then we got to eat it and the cake we made tasted delicious! #LovePlover

This week we have been learning about compassion. We have learnt that we are all different and we can all do different things. To celebrate we had a ‘this is me’ paint party which started with us dancing to the song This Is Me, from The Greatest Showman, before doing our colour run. Keep your eyes peeled for a video over the coming weeks.

Elmer

25th September 2025Amy Woods

This week we have been very busy collaging milk bottles to create our own Elmer elephants. We used our motor skills to independently spread the glue onto the bottle, chose which collage pieces to put where and used coloured eye stickers to stick either side of the trunk. We read the Elmer story together and discussed what patterns we could see.

Compassion – Different Families One Love

24th September 2025Joshua Meade

F2M created our ‘Perfectly Crew Meade – This Is Us’ collage – which represents everyone, diversity and our we care Wednesday motto ‘Different Families, One Love’ where we discussed how some people have different family dynamics.
This all links to our compassion character trait for our colour run tomorrow!

Mark Making

17th September 2025Amy Woods

F1 have been exploring chalk and paint in different way today to create patterns. We used a variety of different tools such as cotton buds, brushes, toothbrushes and sponges. We laid on our tummies whilst doing this to work our stomach muscles, and practise our gross motor skills at the same time.

Working hard making cards

16th September 2025Joshua Meade

Today we have been working hard making cards, drawing ourselves and writing our names. We read the story ‘It’s my birthday’ then shared how birthdays make us feel and things we’ve have done at our birthdays! #LovePlover

We Are Artists

16th September 2025Amy Woods

F1 have been working hard to draw pictures of themselves. We worked hard on remembering to draw bodies and add detail to our drawings, using shapes to build up our pictures.
Some children also worked extra hard, trying to write their names on their pictures.
