We Are Historians

This week we have done a slice on ‘how can you shine your light?’ We have learnt about Diwali and Bonfire Night, including the history of Guy Fawkes. We spoke about Bonfire safety and created our own sparklers and fireworks pictures in provision, the children have worked so hard.

Y5/6 Netball Comp

Well done to some of our Y5/6 girls who took part in a netball tournament this afternoon at Laurel Academy in Mexborough. The girls developed their skills as the tournament went on. They missed out on reaching the final by a last minute point 2.1. #LovePlover

Shine your light!

What a brilliant afternoon we had! We had some expert visitors.

Firefighters shine their light by saving people and keeping them safe. We learned about keeping safe on bonfire night. The most fun part was trying their kits on…or was it using the hose to knock the footballs off the cones? Or was being in the drivers seat of he truck? Or was it being in the back trying on the headphones and looking out of the windows pretending to be real FIREFIGHTERS? Oh, we can’t choose! Another awesome day at Plover school!

We are historians

In 2L we are enjoying our new History Case Study. Today the children found out all about a significant person in our history, Queen Elizabeth II. We learned about her life and then put important events into chronological order on a timeline.

We learned lots of facts about her. Did you know her favourite castle was Balmoral Castle in Scotland? Oliver thought it would be very peaceful there away from the crowds in London.

Check out our timelines.

2P Faith Day

2P looked at the Sikh faith and how prayer is an important part of worship. We considered things that we are thankful for and also others who might be in need of help. We wrote our own list of things that might be used as a prayer for those with beliefs. We then looked at the Sikh Khanda symbol. We created our own mosaics using this symbol as a central part of our patterns.
