Y6 Meal
Last night, Year 6 went out for dinner at Saint Angelo’s to celebrate the end of their time at St James’. Thank you for a lovely evening.
Living and Learning: I can reflect and look ahead.
“Today’s the day, the teddy bears have their picnic!…”
Wow! What a lovely day meeting all of your fluffy friends!
We have enjoyed making teddy biscuits this morning, before donning our teddy bear crowns (made earlier in the week) and taking our pals outside for a lovely picnic and extended play time.
Some of the children told us it was their “best day ever!”
What a lovely celebration for our last few days of the school year 🙂
Living and Learning: I cope with change
Roundhay Park and Tropical World
F2 have had a fabulous day out at the park and Tropical World.
We did leaf collecting and rubbing, played in the play park, had circle games and songs, a picnic and parachute games. We then walked to Tropical World for our tour.
We finished off the day with goodie bags and ice- lollies!!!
Ask your child what their favourite part of the day has been.
What facts can they remember, about the different tropical species they have seen today?
Perfect Pizza!
Today, Foundation made some yummy and importantly healthy wrap pizzas, as part of Staying Healthy Week.
We discussed how our ingredients are good for our bodies, practised the hygiene routines that must take place before and after preparing food and had a go at safely chopping and grating. We then chose which healthy toppings to add to our pizza.
We enjoyed our delicious pizza creations at snack time. Many children tried vegetables they were not sure they liked, which was great to see.
Foundation gave their cooking a big thumbs up!
Can your child help you at home to recreate a wrap pizza or another healthy meal? Take a picture and let us know if they do!
Healthy Cooking
It’s health week, so we decided to cook and eat lots of vegetables. We made a delicious stir-fry with onions, beansprouts, peas, courgettes, cabbage and much more.
“It tasted gorgeous; I had sticky plum sauce with it.”
“I thought I didn’t like the sauce but when I tasted it, it tasted really nice.”
Next Week- Staying Healthy Week
Next week, Foundation will be taking part in
Staying Healthy Week
Activities will include:
Monday (AM)- Tutti Frutti Production.

Looking forward to a happy, healthy and active week ahead! 🙂
The day the classroom quit!
This fortnight, we have been reading The Day the Crayons Quit.
In this story, Duncan comes into the classroom and discovers his crayons have quit for various reasons. Red Crayon is tired of colouring strawberries, Santas and fire engines; Orange Crayon and Yellow Crayon are fighting over who is the true colour of the sun; Blue Crayon is used too much so it short and stubby and Grey Crayon is fed up of colour such big animals like Hippos and Whales.
This week, we have written our own stories pretending to be different items from the classroom that quit. The children came up with some really imaginative ideas as to why each item might quit. Here is a few examples of our letters to Duncan.
