We opened up the box to find out what was inside. There were lots of objects and the children decided that they were for a birthday party. We shared the story “Cake” to hook us into the rest of hook week and painted and collaged the cake for our display. We talked about the different textures.

Year 5 have been getting creative in art, inspired by the brilliant artist Clare Youngs. Clare makes colourful animal collages using lots of different shapes, patterns and textures – and we decided to have a go ourselves!
Our theme was rainforest animals. We created creatures like butterflies, jaguars, toucans, birds and monkeys. First, we drafted our ideas and sketched out how our animals might look. Then came the really exciting part – working with a partner to create a final collage together. It was great fun to share ideas, combine our designs and see how two brains could come together to make one amazing piece of artwork.
The finished collages are bright, bold and full of rainforest life. They look incredible on display and really show off our teamwork as well as our creativity.
We’re so proud of what we’ve made – Clare Youngs would be too!

F2BP have been superstars today sharing, taking turns and helping each other. In crew, we talked about acceptable and unacceptable behaviours and the children were able to say what they had done today that was good behaviour. Many of them said sharing, taking turns and helping each other. Well done crew!

Whilst learning our school rules, F1 have also been looking at our new school character traits and what British values are. We can’t wait to explore these deeper in the coming weeks.

On the second day of Crew Week, 4B were learning all about the character trait “Craftsmanship and quality”. We used demonstrated this by creating and critiquing drafts of a poster about our school charity the RSPCA. After several attempts, we produced some beautiful work which we are proud to display in the classroom.

Today we have learnt how to keep our bodies healthy, by learning to wash our hands. We used glitter to represent germs and practised washing our hands thoroughly using soap. We noticed that if you just dip your hands in the water the germs don’t come off, you need to soap to wash them properly.
We learnt the song “wash wash wash our hands, wash our hands all day. Wash wash wash our hands, wash the germs away”.
