Today in crew we started to think about Anti-Bullying week and kicked this off with showing off our odd socks! We celebrated everything that makes us unique and special. It was a great start to the week and linked perfectly with World Kindness Day 🌎 💜
Today we were visited by PCSO Barker and PC Parish to learn more about their jobs and why they are heroes in our community. They spoke to us about the two areas of their job, caring and controlling. They shared how they much prefer caring and keeping us safe.
This week in KS1 we have been we’ve been learning all about the Hindu festival of light – Diwali! We’ve explored how Diwali is celebrated through looking at photographs and videos, this morning in Crew we made our own Diwali baubles to celebrate 🎉
Crew Godley joined Crew Haddock outside today splashing in muddy puddles
Today we were lucky to be visited by Mrs Godley’s Grandma who talked to us about what it was like during World War Two and her experience of being in hospital.
The children asked some great questions and we all learnt a lot!
Today in crew we explored what kindness with our hands looked like. We thought about what kind things we can do with our hands to show that we care, for example giving a high five 🖐️ or a wave 👋 or even a hug 🤗 We then worked together in mini crews to sort kind and unkind actions, this led to some great discussions about our views and opinions. This linked perfectly to our stewardship roles in crew and the children were able voice how we take cares of not only each other but our environment too.
This morning in crew we have looked at what is kind and not kind regarding our hands. We did a fab job of organising them into groups.
This week, we have been discussing the qualities that make us a good friend. Children shared with their peers how they were good friends to others. Lovely to hear them saying they are helpful, kind, thoughtful and considerate towards others.
Today we consolidated our unit on the Christian faith. We loved the Kahoot quiz and we were top of the class with everything we had remembered! We can wait to see which religion we will study next!
