World Book Day Crew Meade

The children looked brilliant in their world book day costumes and we enjoyed listening to lots of stories today! Thank you Catherine from the Literacy Hub who very kindly gave us all a brand new book and read wonderful classic story. We then got to pick a book from the book shop and was given a £1 book voucher. #LovePlover

F2BP World Book Day

We had a wonderful day for World Book Day. Thank you to Catherine from the Literacy Trust for sharing the Gruffalo story with us and for the books that the children were able to take home. We played character guessing games, made pictures of our costumes for other people to guess and even went to the book store in school to choose our books.

Thank you also to our families for the wonderful costumes.

Our local community

Today we have been for a walk around the perimeter of the school grounds. We learnt about different types of houses in our community, including; semi detached, terrace, flats and bungalows. We spoke about what things were the same/different to school and our houses. We then made a bar chart of the different types of housing we live in, and drew pictures of different types of houses.

Self care posters

For we care Wednesday’s crew session, we discussed the importance of looking after our mental health. The children all created self care posters to show how they care for themselves. Some great discussions and ideas shared. Well done crew!

Investigating teeth

In year 3, we have been investigating the impact of sugar on teeth and how to take better care of them. We used plaque disclosing tablets to check how well we brush our teeth and created posters to promote better oral hygiene.
