Nightingales loved reading Stanley’s Stick by @LaytonNeal and created their own sticks deciding what they could turn into. Amazing imagination Nightingales and we can’t wait to see your ideas develop into stories. 💭 ✍️ 🍃
Falcons took their learning outdoors creating their own base (warp threads) and selected from a range of coloured wool to weave. Some children started weaving in natural resources found around school. #learningtogether #collaboration #flourishing
Robins and Nightingales have been working together practising their Sports Day skills on our amazing field this week.
They are finished and are truly AMAZING! Falcons have demonstrated such perseverance and creativity throughout this mini project. The way they were able to take a simple material and develop this into a 3D mask has been very impressive. The layers and thought about colour and shape demonstrate a true understanding of the various mask types there were. 🎨 🤩
There has been lots of painting going on in Owls and Magpies this week. 🎨 Owls have been exploring colour mixing with primary, secondary and tertiary colours and Magpies have been colour mixing for their African Sunsets. 🌅 🦒
As a school, we use Facebook to share our exciting learning through social media to our families and wider followers but we do also have a school Twitter X account that we use to engage with other education accounts. This week Falcons have been interacting with author Lindsay Galvin, the author of Darwin’s Dragons, sharing their learning with her and their excitement about the upcoming Wells Festival of Literature visit. 🗣️📝📚 #learningtogether
We love Falcons' unique and reflective artwork representing their class and the school as a whole. The children have been inspired by one of their class artists, Torres Garcia. It has been lovely to hear about what the children feel are the strengths and important aspects/characteristics of our wonderful school.
Thank you, Falcons 🙏
It was a really exciting day as we welcomed our new Reception Robins as part of our transition to St Aldhelm’s. The weather was glorious and we enjoyed lots of play in the sunshine as well as creative fun inside. Parents and Carers were able to meet and chat too. Some children didn’t want to go home but are really looking forward to coming back to play next week! #learningtogether
An exciting new beginning, this week we welcomed our new Reception Parents for our first event of our transition to St Aldhelm’s. We can’t wait to welcome children and parents on Thursday to come and play too. 🤩
This week in worship, we have been exploring the Christian Value, perseverance. We have looked at inspiring people including Rob Burrow, Emma Raducanu and Max Woosey and considered how we can be changemakers like them. Maybe a dinner table or long car journey discussion this week to share who inspires you to keep going and make the world a better place! #learningtogether #LifeInALLItsFullness #RobBurrow The Boy In The Tent #changemakers
Falcons have been researching, designing and creating masks inspired by those from Maya culture. They applied their knowledge of the Maya and other civilisations to design either death, celebration or warrior masks to wear into battle. They had a range of materials to select from and are using these to build up the layers. We can't wait to see the final masks.
