Yesterday, our Class 2 children enjoyed a wonderful visit from Mrs Plant, a local artist, who led an exciting paper-making workshop.

The children had a fantastic time learning about the paper-making process and creating their own handmade paper. They were fully engaged throughout the session and loved getting creative with different materials.

A huge thank you to Mrs Plant for sharing her skills and inspiring our young artists. It was a memorable and enjoyable learning experience for everyone!

💦 Today's warm weather made the perfect opportunity for Class One to put their English learning into action!

The children carefully read and followed a set of instructions to make water bombs, developing their reading, listening and sequencing skills along the way. They worked brilliantly together, showing excellent concentration and teamwork as they followed each step.

Learning has never been so much fun! Well done, Class One! 🌞

📸 Class One enjoyed spending time outside today, exploring our outdoor environment with cameras in hand. The children had lots of fun looking carefully at the world around them, choosing interesting objects and taking close-up photographs for their "Guess What?" game. This activity encouraged them to observe details, talk about what they could see, and develop their curiosity while enjoying some fresh air and working together. 🌿🍃📷

What an amazing day we had yesterday at Sports Day! 🏅

The children took part in a fantastic range of events, including throwing, jumping, the obstacle course, the egg and spoon race, and the ever-popular Year 6 water race. They all did an incredible job, showing determination, teamwork, and great sportsmanship. There were some very close races, making for an exciting day!

It was wonderful to see so many families join us to support the children and stay for the picnic afterwards. Thank you to everyone who came along and helped make the day so special.

🌊 Friday Fun at Branscombe Beach! ☀️

The children had a fantastic day exploring Branscombe Beach on Friday! They took part in a beach scavenger hunt before using their treasures to create wind chimes. They also got creative with clay and shells, making their own unique nature creations.

The fun continued with toasting marshmallows over the fire, creating beach art, enjoying a refreshing dip in the sea, and, of course, finishing the day with a well-earned ice cream! 🍦

What a wonderful day filled with adventure, creativity, and lots of smiles. 💙

On Friday, Class 2 continued their learning about light by exploring shadows. 🌞👥

The children used their creativity to create their very own shadow theatres, experimenting with how light and objects work together to make different shadows. They had lots of fun bringing their ideas to life while developing their understanding of this exciting science topic!

Well done, Class 2! ✨
