On our first day in Year 1, 1CU dusted off their creative skills and had a go at some pastel art, based on the artist Wassily Kadinsky. We looked at different pieces he had created and the colours he had used before deciding on how we would use his work as inspiration for our own!
Have a look at some of our beautiful circle drawings using oil pastels!
We hope you have all had a wonderful summer break!
During our first week back, we would like to take the children in year 3 for an XP outdoors experience to litter pick around the local area in places such as the Intake library park and the Multi-use Games Area (MUGA). Litter picking equipment has kindly been provided by the local council. Not only will this act of service improve the local community area used by many of the children at our school, itĀ will help us to develop our crew.
The trip will be on Friday 30th August 2024 at 9:15-11am.
There is no cost for this field trip. However, we require the children to have sensible outdoor clothing and footwear.
It would be lovely for as many parents/carers to attend as possible. Please let class teachers know if you are able to support.
A letter should be sent out by the end of the day and we would appreciate it if reply slips could be returned by Thursday 29th August 2024.
Thank you,
Miss Brown and Mrs Haycock
Another busy week in 1CR.
As mathematicians, we have been learning how to find one more, one less, and compare numbers and objects. Using the new mathematical signs to compare was tricky, but we persevered and made everyone proud of our determination to understand the concept.
As writers, we have been continuing to develop our handwriting as well as using adjectives to describe the wolf and the pig. We have enjoyed learning about the ‘True Story of the Three Little Pigs’.
As scientists, we have been finding out about the different uses and properties of common materials. This will help us to think about the best materials to use within castles and for protection.
We also enjoyed a special visitor. Heather from the Children’s University visited to tell us all about the university, how to collect hours and to show us what happens at the graduation ceremony.
From all of us at Plover school, we wish you a fantastic summer break with family and friends.
We look forward to welcoming you all back on Tuesday 27th August.
Stay safe and enjoy!

Everyone in Year 2 worked hard today to learn about Buddhism. The children did a Gallery Walk of images of Buddhism and enjoyed discussing the similarities and differences between Buddhism and the other religions we have looked it. Today they found out about puja, a special ceremony, where Buddhists offer prayers to Buddha to ask for help or request their blessings. The children learned about the importance of a puja plate and the things needed to go on it.
