Update on Learning

We finished the end of last week with a Celebration of Chinese New Year. We ate noodles using chopsticks, which was great fun. We listened to and retold the story of the Great Race, made our own dragons and tried to write in Chinese characters. As well as this we paraded around school, playing instruments, with the Nursery Dragon  This week we have continued to practice our fine motor skills using the chopsticks to try to pick up rice.

On Sunday, the children in the church service were superb. Thank you to everybody who came along to worship with us.

This week about how we can be ‘Superhero Learners and Citizens’. The children have been coming up with their own Superhero characters and thinking about what their special powers might be. We have been appreciating all the different qualities our classmates and family members have.

The children have been exploring heavy and light and using the vegetables have been ordering them in different ways and explaining their thinking.

In addition to this Miss Mackenzie’s Class went on ‘The Canon Burrows Bee Trail’ with their Year 6 buddies this week. They loved looking for the bees.

We have enjoyed looking at all the invitations that the children have completed for home learning. On Friday 7^th February the children can come into school in their own clothes or dressed as Superheroes for our Superhero party.
