We have been using apples to weigh and paint. We talked about which side of the scales was the heaviest and the lightest. The children then tried to balance the scales evenly which was tricky because the apples were all different sizes. We used apples to print autumn colours and we made chalk autumn trees with the leaves falling onto the ground. What a busy week!

We made our own owls after reading the story, Owl babies. Some children made the mummy while others made the baby owls. Aren’t they cute? πŸ¦‰

It is so great to see everyone in P1/2. On your child's first day they made a first day poster. They painted their hands and created hand prints. Then they wrote their name in the middle. I am finally getting round to uploading all the lovely photos!

Everyone has settled in extremely well in P1 and it is great that we are all now in a full day until 2pm.

Year 1/2 have been very busy learning about the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee. They had great fun using finger paints to design a colourful Queen’s head. The boys and girls were busy writing diamanté/diamond poems. A diamante poem, or diamond poem, is a style of poetry that is made up of seven lines. The text forms the shape of a diamond. Have a look at the finished masterpieces πŸ‘‘

On Monday it was our turn to walk, bike or scoot to school. We got out on our wheeled vehicles to have some fun on the playground. It was so encouraging to see so many confident riders in our class already!

Thank you so much for your fabulous contributions to our growing challenge! We weeded the bed before planting onions, carrots, peas, sunflowers and some beautiful wildflowers! We can’t wait to see the little seedlings sprout but until they do we have some weeding and watering to do each week!

As our world book week author was Julia Donaldson, each child brought in a wooden spoon to transform into their favourite Julia Donaldson character. The children chose their characters, painted the spoon and then added details once it was dry. We had great fun retelling our stories using the spoons, don’t they look great?

As part of our topic ‘In the toy box’, Year 1 & 2 enjoyed making their own sock puppets this week. Mrs Kane helped with the hot glue gun and the children chose their materials and where each item would go. We can’t wait to use them next week to tell stories!

What a fantastic effort that was made by our children, staff and parents today for World Book Day.  The children were allowed to wear pyjamas or a book character costume and the effort put in was amazing.  

Well done to each of you. 😁
