⏰ Time Travellers Suitcase! ⏰

Reception have been stepping back in time with our very own Time Travellers’ Suitcase!

Inside, we discovered some fascinating old photographs, including some of the very first aeroplanes!

We compared the old aeroplanes with modern jumbo jets and talked about how things have changed over time.

What a wonderful way to become history detectives!

🌟 Stay & Play at St. Paul’s! 🌟

We are delighted to invite families to our Stay & Play Sessions, offering a wonderful opportunity to explore our Nursery and Reception environments, meet our dedicated Early Years Team and find out more about starting school at St. Paul’s in September 2027.

At the heart of everything we do in our Early Years is the children. Our fantastic EYFS team work tirelessly to create a nurturing, inspiring and welcoming environment where every child feels valued, supported and excited to learn.

We were especially proud to receive such wonderful feedback from our recent parent survey. Read more on our website: https://stpaulsprimaryschool.org.uk/eyfs

🎨 Typography Through Collage! ✂️

In Art, our Year 5 / 6 children have been exploring typography and getting creative with letters!

This session, they used collage techniques to create their own letters, thinking carefully about the different curved and straight lines they could use.

It was fantastic to see their creativity come to life as they experimented with shapes, lines and textures!

🪨🍫 Chocolate Rocks! 🍫🪨

As part of our Science unit on rocks, we have been exploring the three main types of rock: sedimentary, metamorphic and igneous.

To help us understand how each type of rock is formed, we used white, milk and dark chocolate to model the different stages of the rock cycle.

We discussed what each stage of our investigation represented and thought carefully about how the changes we observed related to the formation of real rocks.

We were delighted with our results and had great fun learning about rocks through this hands-on investigation!

🌿💦 Muddy Monday Fun! 💦🌿

Our nursery children had great fun during their very first Muddy Monday session!

Although the rain stayed away and there weren’t any muddy puddles to splash in, that certainly didn’t stop the children from having a wonderful time! They enjoyed exploring the outdoors, getting stuck into a range of activities and embracing the spirit of Muddy Monday.

There were lots of smiles, laughter and exciting discoveries as the children learned, played and explored together in the fresh air.

It was a fantastic first session, and we can’t wait to see what muddy adventures the weeks ahead will bring!

🧠 Positive Growth Mindset 🧠

In Reception we have been learning to develop a positive growth mindset whilst understanding that it’s okay to find things tricky.

We had a lovely discussion about things we sometimes find difficult. The children shared some brilliant examples:

💬 “I find it hard to put my coat on.”
💬 “I find it hard to write my name.”
💬 “I find it tricky to go on the big slide at the park.”

We talked about how, when we keep practising and challenging ourselves, we help our brains grow and become stronger!

We have all made a special pledge to keep trying, keep practising and NEVER GIVE UP!

We also learnt the power of one very important little word… YET! “I can’t do it… YET!”

We made some lovely growth mindset headbands to remind us of this!

We CAN do hard things! Well done, everyone! 👏💙
