KS1 Toy Afternoon

As part of our Hook Week activities we will be holding a Toy Afternoon on Wednesday 2nd September.

Children are allowed to bring one toy into school to play with during the afternoon.

Please ensure it is named and can be kept in a carrier bag on their peg until the afternoon.

Thanks

Making Our Final Product!

Crew Ramsay enjoyed attempt number 3 at making our animal sculptures. We have learned so much through our previous drafts and our critique and were so excited to give it another go. We know that Austin’s butterfly got better and better so we were kind to ourselves after the first two attempts. Out sculptures are amazing and we cannot wait to show them off at our COL.

Geography

After learning about the four countries that make up the United Kingdom (UK), Crew Farrow rearranged the furniture to mirror the shape of the UK. We then set sail across the four surrounds seas; English Channel, Irish Sea, North Sea, North Atlantic Ocean. 🛶🌊

What an incredible afternoon we had celebrating our Presentation of Learning! A huge thank you to all of our parents and families who joined us – we loved every minute of sharing our learning with you.

This term, our expedition explored Ancient Egypt alongside healthy lifestyles. The children investigated the foods Ancient Egyptians ate before designing and creating their own Ancient Egypt-inspired energy bars, combining historical inspiration with modern healthy ingredients. It was wonderful to see everyone taking part in our taste test, sharing thoughtful feedback and helping us decide on the most successful recipe.

We also shared our product for our last expedition- our Tudor Trivia Card Game! Families also put their historical knowledge to the test with our Crime and Punishment trivia challenge, bringing plenty of smiles, teamwork and friendly competition to the afternoon.

The atmosphere was simply pyramid perfection – filled with curiosity, laughter and pride! We are so grateful for the continued support from our families, whose encouragement helps make these special learning experiences possible.

Thank you again for celebrating with us. We hope you enjoyed being part of our learning journey as much as we enjoyed sharing it.

Baby Pictures! 👶

In expedition, we were identifying how animals change as they grow, including us! Thank you to everyone who was able to bring their baby pictures in and share them with the class – including teachers! We had lots of fun looking at our younger selves and explaining how we have changed over time.
