Easter buns.
If you’re stuck with lots of Easter eggs, do what we did and melt them to make yummy Rice Krispie buns.
We broke the chocolate into small pieces, melted it in the microwave, and added as many Rice Krispies as we could fit in the bowl.
We shared the mixture out evenly and added our special mini eggs on top!
Took them home to share with family. YUMMY 🙂
Mathematicians
Well done to the children in maths, who were exploring number bonds within 10 using cubes. You worked incredibly hard! 🔢💡
Hook Week – Day 1 🪝
Easter Week.
Before the Easter Holidays, we finished our paper mâché nests and decorated them, ready for the Easter Bunny. The children have also made Easter cards, creating bunnies out of handprints.
Using concrete resources, we incorporated Easter into our maths lessons with number matching and colour-by-number activities. We then used Easter in our phonics lessons to support blending CVC words. These activities were completed with minimal adult support—fantastic work!
Hope you all had a lovely Easter break!
Red Nose Day
This week, we have been baking and decorating some cupcakes for Red Nose Day, and while doing this, we had discussions around fundraising and how baking and selling was one of the many ways we could raise money. We used visuals and videos to explain what Comic Relief is, and the children completed tasks based on money and feelings.
Mother’s Day
Last week the children created beautiful Mother’s Day cards using their own handprints to form bright, blooming flowers, each one as unique as the child who made it. They also explored paint blowing, carefully guiding colours across the page to create some unique shapes. As they worked, we spoke about the special people in their lives—mums, grandmothers, and other loved ones. Showing off there progress with writing inside the cards themselves.
papier-mâché Easter crafts
Adam and Emily happily kicked off their Easter crafts with a fun papier-mâché session, filling the classroom with laughter and creativity. Using newspaper and paste, they shaped Easter eggs over balloons.
By the end, their eggs were full of charm, and the morning was bright, creative, and full of smiles.
Well done, Emily!
A big congratulations to Emily for being awarded Dancer of the Week at her out-of-school dance class — we are so proud of you!

Dodgeball Tournament Success
A huge well done to our Year 3 and 4 pupils from. who recently took part in an exciting dodgeball tournament against other local schools. The children showed fantastic crew work, determination, and sportsmanship throughout the event.
After a series of great matches, our team proudly finished 2nd place out of 10 schools! This is a brilliant achievement and everyone represented the school incredibly well. We are very proud of their effort, enthusiasm, and positive attitude during the tournament.
