Day two of our residential saw crate stacking, laser tagging, climbing Jacob’s ladder and cave-mazing! Fireless campfire tonight with songs and an excellent opportunity stitch up your teacher! The children are having such a fabulous time and representing Burntstump brilliantly. All ended the day tired out so an earlier bedtime expected 🤞

One of our lovely Robins children spotted a little mouse on the playground today and we all enjoyed observing it closely. One child noticed that he was breathing very quickly and maybe he was scared , so we all came up with the idea to find a spot for him to run free. We named him sonic and off he went on his adventure!

In computing, Kestrels have been learning about computational thinking. They now know what decomposition and pattern recognition means and we applied these skills to different activities. They had to organise a picture, try to build a house out of Lego, unscramble different stories and organise objects in different ways. 💻🌟

🌟 Thank you Next Level Sports for a fantastic day where we tried golf and soft archery.🌟The children really tested their skills in these individual sports and I think we might have the next Tiger Woods or Robin Hood! ⛳️ 🏹

Kestrels have become budding thespians today in history! 🎭

As part of our Anglo-Saxon unit, we have looked at their justice system. Each group was given a punishment to act out and the rest of the class had to guess what it was. The children LOVED learning about punishment but were not keen when Miss Richards suggested using some of them today at school! 🤣
