The start of term is always good fun as each phase plans a hook day to hook their pupils into their new topics.
Foundation Stage
Children in Tintern and Turvey have been enjoying using their Tonie box in the reading area, listening to stories together and joining in with their favourite phrases.
They have also built on their number knowledge in Mastering Number lessons and in provision by subitising and exploring numerals through number track games and building staircases to explore 1 more than the number before.
Creativity has been fantastic in the children's playdough animal creations as part of their Baa! Quack! Moo! topic. The children are on a countdown to the arrival of some hatching eggs and can't wait to care for baby chicks in a few weeks.
Ks1 are learning all about the Arctic!
The children did some research on Arctic animals, finding out about their habitats and eating habits. They have been carrying out some observational drawings too.
Year 3/4 are learning all about light and shadows. Their hook day involved experimenting with torches in the darkness, creating shadows!
I think they had a giggle!
Year 5/6 are learning all about space. Their hook day was a VR space session. They really enjoyed themselves! But were a little dizzy afterwards!
Last week we also enjoyed our annual school pantomime, Dick Whitington. It was great fun and the children were cheering and booing loudly!
We have already booked Peter Pan for next year.
