Year 1 and 2 Seascape Art

Our Year 1 and 2 children have created wonderful seascape artworks. They began by sketching their scenes and then used watercolours to bring their ideas to life. To finish their pieces, the children added colourful card curtains, giving the effect of looking out at a seaside view.

We are very proud of their creativity and hard work!

Year 1 and Year 2 Learn About Climate Change.

Year 1 and Year 2 children have been learning about climate change and how it affects our world. They found out what climate change is, what causes it, and why it is important to look after our planet.

The children learned about different climate zones, including polar, desert, rainforest and temperate climates. We talked about how climate change is affecting these places, such as melting ice, hotter temperatures and changes in weather.

The children showed great interest and shared thoughtful ideas about how everyone can help care for the Earth.

Gymnastics with Josh!

Year 1 and Year 2 children took part in an exciting gymnastics lesson this week led by Josh, a gymnastics coach from our local area. The children thoroughly enjoyed the session and were keen to take part in all the activities.

During the lesson, the children used a range of gymnastics equipment to practise and develop different body shapes and jumps. They worked carefully to balance, stretch, and move with control, building both their confidence and coordination. Josh and the class teachers supported and encouraged the children throughout, helping them to improve their technique while having fun.

It was wonderful to see the children engaging so positively, showing great enthusiasm and effort as they developed their gymnastics skills. We look forward to building on these skills in future lessons.

Year 1 Visit to Our Local Church for Christmas Activities.

Last week, our Year 1 children enjoyed a wonderful afternoon at our local church, taking part in festive activities that helped them explore the true meaning of Christmas.

During their visit, the children reflected on some important themes such as joy, bravery, and welcoming. Through stories, crafts, and discussions, they considered how these values can be part of their own lives and the world around them.

The afternoon also encouraged curiosity and deep thinking. The children shared some big questions they would like to ask, such as ‘Why is it important to welcome others?’

It was a thoughtful and inspiring experience that brought learning to life in a meaningful way. A big thank you to the church community for making us feel so welcome and helping us celebrate this special season together.

Year 1 & 2 Welcome a Special Visitor.

This week, our Year 1 and Year 2 children enjoyed a very special visit from one of our school’s former headteachers, Mr Green. As part of their learning about the history of our school, the children had the opportunity to hear first-hand stories about how the school has changed over the years, as well as what has stayed the same.

The children were fascinated to learn about past traditions, old classrooms, and the ways teaching and learning have developed. They asked thoughtful questions and were excited to compare their experiences with those of pupils from many years ago.

We are grateful to our visitor for sharing their memories and bringing our school’s history to life. It was a wonderful opportunity for our pupils to deepen their understanding of the past and feel even more connected to the place they learn and grow every day.

1C and 2S Art

Within our unit of art work this half term we have been considering ‘What colours and patterns can be found in nature?’ The children started off by looking closely at the autumnal objects found and brought into school and arranging them against their chosen background. Next, the children had a go at sketching their choice of objects, including as much detail as possible. The children then created templates and used these to cut out their autumn objects from their choice of fabrics. Finally the children arranged and fixed their objects on a hessian background as well as adding a range of embellishments to reflect the patterns found in nature.
