Farewell Little Butterflies

Today we released our beautiful Butterflies into the school garden. We really enjoyed watching them transform from tiny, baby caterpillars into beautiful Painted Lady Butterflies.

Matilda

In Second Class, we are reading Matilda. We have been using ‘Role on the Wall’ to record what we find out about her character. We look forward to adding to it as the story goes on.

Today’s Story

‘After the Fall’ (How Humpty Dumpty Got Back Up Again) was a huge hit with 2nd Class today. An inspiring tale about over-coming fears. I won’t spoil the ending but it was a real special moment for the class. The look on their little faces was priceless!

Competition time!!!

Dear students,
We would like to invite you to enter a story/poetry or song writing competition!! The theme is on the topic of time and what we are doing now that we are all at home with our families.

Well done to Fazla and Lukas!!

 

 

All students in 6th class recently received a copy of the book ‘The Person Controller’ by David Baddiel. We had lots of fun activities planned as part of this community project which included working with lots of other schools as well. Due to our recent change in circumstances the students of 6th class are now designing their own book cover and writing a report on the book.

Well done to Fazla for designing the wonderful book cover above and to Lukas for writing a great book report!
