What’s growing?

Posted on Wednesday 06 May 2020 by Miss Beatson

Mr Atkins has been very busy planting some vegetables in our school allotment. Can you guess what he has planted?

There are peas, carrots, radishes, lettuces, beetroot, spring onions and potatoes! Thank you Mr Atkins for watering them and keeping them going until we are all back at school.

Storytime: Pog by Lynn Lee

Posted on Tuesday 28 April 2020 by Mr Roundtree

If you fancy listening to me reading the story of Pog, the little monster who was afraid of children, click on the link. It’s my first time at videoing me reading a book, so I hope it’s ok! We are all learning new things in lockdown!

Poetry

Posted on Thursday 23 April 2020 by Mr Roundtree

Hi all,

How did you get on with Monday’s poetry task? I had a go at recording myself reciting one of my favourite poems, Eletelephony by Laura Elizabeth Richard. It’s my first go at recording myself, so I’m quite proud of it, even if I do look a bit silly! Evie sent us a poem that she wrote, which is awesome. Have you any poems that you have recited and/or written? If so, send them in!

There once was a bear
Who was friends with a hare
He went to his house
But only found a mouse
He went to the lake
But only found a cake
He went to the shop
But only found a lollipop
He went to see the mayor
And there he found the hare          by Evie

Holiday fun!

What wonderful and inventive things have you been getting up to? We treated ourselves to a meal out – ok, so it was at a camping table on the drive, but it was still a different venue! Ellie has managed to create her very own jacuzzi, learn some British sign language and help her dad create their very own McDonald’s burgers. What a busy beaver!

A little quiz…

Posted on Tuesday 14 April 2020 by Mr Roundtree

Hi children,

We hope you’ve had a lovely Easter break. Isn’t the sunshine just fab?

Maddie enjoyed her first Easter egg hunt and has definitely got her love of chocolate from me.

Whilst you’re enjoying your break, why not have a go at this little quiz? Can you work out the titles of the 20 famous children’s books? I’ll post the answers tomorrow.

Enjoy!

Mrs Rowley

Happy Easter!

Posted on Saturday 11 April 2020 by Mr Roundtree

So, how are the Easter holidays going? How are you getting on with the Easter challenge activities? What were you up to last week? What will you be doing this week? Helping with the cooking? Practising a sport? Completing a jigsaw ? I’m trying to do the  Joe Wicks workouts every day. Mrs Rowley is getting better at piano. Send us some pictures of all the fun things that you are doing – we love seeing what you’re up to! Here are some we’ve already received.

Hi children

How are you finding the Easter holidays? Have you completed any of the Easter home learning? The den building looks fab – I can’t wait till Maddie is older and we can build lots of dens!

We’ve spent lots of time in the garden playing in her sandpit, reading books, colouring in our picnic blanket and even playing in her water tray in the lovely sunshine!

We have loved receiving your emails about all the things you are doing at home – both learning and fun things! Have a look at Evie making pizzas and Ellie kickboxing with her dad. Please do keep sending us emails – its fab to see what you’ve been up to and you might even appear here on the website!

We hope you have a lovely Easter weekend.

Love

Mrs Rowley
