This week we have been carrying out debates. In groups, we have researched facts about different topics such as homework, watching television, PE in schools and uniform. We have used persuasive language to argue for or against each topic. The rest of the class then had to vote for the most…

We love listening to stories in Nursery and acting them out. Everyone wanted to be Handa today and try to carry a basket of fruit on their head. We are holding on with just one hand and keeping an eye out for cheeky, hungry animals.

We enjoyed finding all the different phonic sounds around the playground. We read the sound and then had to come up with a word. We thought of lots of words!! 

 

Over the last few weeks we have been reading and writing plays. We have looked at the story of ‘Robin Hood and the Chocolate Cake’ and turned it into a play script. Today, we have looked at some familiar nursery rhymes and have acted them out in groups.

Mrs Todd Bryce told us the story of the “Very Hungry Caterpillar”

we used the knitted props that the soroptomists brought us. We talked about our favourite foods and what happens when you eat too much.

Thank you to one of our lovely Governor, Mrs Quainoo, who organised for our Enormous Turnip Story Sack to be made and presented to us alongside some other members of the Soroptomists group. We thoroughly enjoyed it. 
We will enjoy retelling the story using the characters and cannot wait to create…

Thank you to the parents who came to our, ‘Reading Cafe’. The children loved listening to a range of stories and we even enjoyed some juice and a biscuit! 

We have enjoyed listening to stories today. Thank you  to Y3 for coming and reading to us. We love to see you. 

It was a very special end to the day today when the mummies and daddies came in to read with us. Thank you to so many of you for coming in. The children loved it.

The children who have received their purple bands had a treat last Friday. They met Rosie the reading dog, had an ice lolly or sweets and listened to a story about a reading dog. 

We enjoyed listening to the stories that the Year 4’s read to us. We also enjoyed trying to guess the ‘Masked Readers’ from Y4 and Y1 ! They were very well disguised !
