Puppet Show

We had a real treat on Thursday, when David returned and entertained us with his wonderful puppets!

Everybody's favourite was the 'naughty puppet'!!

Each class had a workshop where we got to use the puppets.

We had to make our puppets talk to other puppets.

It was hard to make the puppets talk without our mouths moving!

Some of us even put on our own puppet show in class afterwards!

Visitors from Switzerland

Two very special visitors from Switzerland joined us for Assembly last week.

M. gave her Granny and Grandad a tour of the school afterwards.
We hope that they enjoyed their visit!

Problem Solving

In Problem Solving we had to work out how many different ways we could arrange three children.

We discovered that there were six different ways to arrange them!  We also found out that it was much easier to do it in an organised way, with each child standing in the same place twice.

After that, we had to work out how many ways we could arrange three different teddies.

Again, we found it was easier to do it in an organised way!

Drama

In Drama last week, we had to think about how different minibeasts move, and then try to move around the hall in the same way.

Some of us were butterflies!








Some of us were slugs crawling under unusual objects!

Outdoor Learning

Last Thursday, during Outdoor Learning, we went on a 'minibeast hunt' to see how many, and what different types of minibeasts we could find around the school grounds.

It was very wet, but we managed to find lots of minibeasts!

We found ones in the grass,

in bushes,

under stones,

in the soil in the raised beds

and even in the trim track boat!

We wondered if we would have found more minibeasts if it had been a dry, sunny day, or if we would have found different kinds of minibeasts?

Roots of Empathy

This week we were amazed to see how much baby L. had grown since her last visit before the Easter holidays!

She likes to try standing now, with her Mum, Anna, supporting her.

She is very interested in toys and often reaches out to get one.

Baby L. loved hearing us singing  nursery rhymes to her!

Rugby

Last Saturday six members of our class were part of the P4/5 team, which won their age group in the Rugby tournament held in Dounby.

                               Well done to the whole team!  We are very proud of you!
