F1 have enjoyed learning all about Africa today. We had lots of fun tasting the orange cake and juice we made yesterday, using African instruments, doing African dancing and African colouring. Thank you to all the parents that supported us by sending their child dressed up, everyone looked amazing.

We have had a great day today, baking orange cake and making our own orange juice! We even had a special visit from Nana Bubb this morning, as our expedition expert, to help us make the cake. We are so excited to taste them tomorrow for our African celebration day.

We are not sure if we loved it more or if our visitors loved it more today? Residents from Oaklands Care Home came to share some stories. Some of them loved reading to the children and some of them loved hearing stories with the children. Ernest used to be a teacher and even taught Mrs Price when she went to school! We showed off our counting too to see if it helped him feel like he was back in the classroom at Hall Cross. We got lots of smiles from him, despite him missing all the skittles when he played bowling with us 🙂
Lizzy loved reading to the children and made lots of friends- Mrs Reeve said she was after her job! There was lots of giggles and joy shared.
We hope to see our new friends at our Celebration of Learning later in the term.
Today we have been working hard on our oral blending . We had to say the sound in each hoop, before blending it together to say the whole word.

What a lovely time we had singing WW2 songs and sharing a picnic soon the school field at lunchtime today, to commemorate 80 years since VE Day.
After posing for a whole school photo, it was time for a bit of fun, with some dancing and singing some more recent tunes!
We took a moment to thank those who gave their lives for us today.

We would like to say a very big thank you to Mekaal’s dad for donating some indoor and outdoor footballs. The children were very excited to see the footballs and are looking forward to playing with them later.
