Harvest Festival
Last week in RE, Year 1 and 2 learned about the Harvest Festival and the importance of this to the community. We started by thinking of the things that we are thankful for before exploring what the Christian church do during Harvest festival. We learned that they have donations to the church which they then donate to others who are less fortunate or just need a helping hand.
This led on to this weeks lessons where we learned about Sukkot which is the Jewish celebration of Harvest. The Jewish people celebrate takes place in September or October depending on the Hebrew calendar. They build shelters which they pray, eat and even sleep in as a way to remember the story of Moses and his people in the desert.

STIK inspired artwork
Today we created some beautiful artwork for our final product based on the British graffiti artist STIK.
To start we did a gallery walk to critique his artwork. We then did several drafts before doing our final designs.
Rainbow Ribbon Dance
During today’s activity, the children participated in a rainbow ribbon dance session.Each child received a ribbon and followed along with an instructional video to work on their hand-eye coordinationThe children loved waving their ribbons.
Arts and Crafts time
“Today in arts and crafts, the kids created unique fox collages using a mix of fun textures and materials!”
Ham and cheese sandwich
We first buttered the bread, then added our ham and cheese before placing another slice of bread on top. We then cut it in half and ate it.
The Power of Play
It was lovely to see Year 4 and 2 playing alongside each other during our Friday crew session.
What is play?
We have enjoyed our first few lessons of our new expedition.
Today we unpicked what play is. We talked about how play can take lots of different forms such as imaginative and individual. Most of all we agreed that play should be fun!.
This is the definition of play that some of our crew came up with together.
“Play is when we have fun with our friends. We are kind and respectful to others. We can be a crew when we play together.”
We then went on to produce some beautiful work all about what play is.
Great work CrewRobson
Fine motor skills
As part of their morning task, they developed their fine motor skills by carefully threading pasta onto string. This activity helped to strengthen their hand-eye coordination, concentration, and control of small hand movements.
