All Classes Activity Flow
A Royal delivery
When Prince Harry married Meghan earlier this year, Class 2 designed wedding cards and drew pictures to send to the happy couple.
Today, we received a reply from the offices of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex thanking the children for their kind words.
Every child who sent a card and picture have received a personal letter to keep.
Class 2 visit to the Ancient High House.
What a wonderful day Class 2 had exploring the Ancient High House in Stafford where we had the opportunity to learn more about the Great Fire of London.
We learnt how to write in the style of Samuel Pepys where we gained our quill licence. We investigated the lives of rich and poor people during that time and even wore some of the fashions they wore too! We looked at how the houses were built and why the fire was so devastating to London. We also held a fire bucket from the time period and realised just how heavy they were.
Class 2 take on the TV chefs
Class 2 have been preparing for their TV presenting debut with their very own cooking show. They have been looking at how TV chefs present their shows and are now designing a recipe that will be part of their broadcast.
They will be creating their own mini TV show demonstrating their chosen recipe.
Making recycled art!
On Thursday in Class 3 we set out to create our recycled fish, bubbles and seaweed for our Plastiquarium! A huge thankyou to all that brought in great materials, that otherwise would have been thrown away, for us to use! We really enjoyed creating our art pieces, and the Plastiquarium shall be open soon, watch this space!
Plastiquarium
Recently in Class 3 we have been researching different artists that create art using recycled materials, in line with our current topic ‘Materials that shape the world’. We have found Rodney McCoubrey and David Edgars’ fish made of recycled materials to be very interesting, so have decided to make our own ‘Plastiquarium’ using recycled materials! This week we have painted the bases of our fish, and next week we plan to layer them up with materials! We are really looking forward to it!
If you have any bottle tops, wrappers/ other recycled materials please bring them in for Thursday next week!
