In Year 1 the children have been very busy!

They have been listening to stories! Their

favourite was ‘We’re Going on a Bear Hunt’.

Some of the activities included sequencing

the story, drawing pictures of the different

settings, writing warning signs for the bear

cave and using playdough to make the char-

acters from the story.

In Geography the children have been finding out

about different places that Barnaby Bear has vis-

ited. Barnaby Bear wrote them a letter from Ant-

arctica asking them to design him a new suitcase

because his own was becoming worn and damaged.

Barnaby Bear thought the children did a great job

when he saw their designs! Barnaby Bear also vis-

ited Egypt and showed the children pictures from

his trip which they talked about then wrote and

drew what it was like there.

In Year 2, the children fresh back from their

holidays dived into a seaside topic in Literacy

and Geography. The children learnt the sea-

side vocabulary and shared their experiences

from their seaside holidays and made lovely

displays for the Key Stage 1 hall.

Our first visit of the year will be on Thursday, 30th September. Year 2

will be exploring the Botanical Gardens to understand how different

plants can be found in different habitats, this relates to our Science

topic. During our Science lessons we will be planting seeds and the

children will be observing how the seeds produce new plants.

Year 3

Already this term we have been

extremely busy in Year 3. 3R started our

school assemblies with a fantastic

musical performance of Snow White,

which was a joy to watch for pupils,

teachers and parents alike. Once again

congratulations to all of 3R for all your

hard work and efforts you were

fantastic. We have just all enjoyed our

first trip of the year with a visit to the

Art Gallery, to look and study the

Portrait Paintings there. This links in

with our art topic of ‘Portraying

Relationships’ we all really enjoyed

looking at the paintings and trying to

work out who was who and how they

knew each other. We had a picnic lunch

in the park and many of us carried on

our drawings there, although some of

us became fascinated by the rocks and

soils on offer-which is our current

Science Topic, proving it doesn’t matter

where we are, we are always learning in

Year 3.
