Hannah the Nurse came to talk to the children in Kingfisher Class about germs and the importance of washing their hands properly. We met different germs – cuddly toys!! Hannah had a special light to show the children what germs they had on their hands.
The Kingfisher Class had Mrs Hunter the Dental Nurse visit them. She told the children how to look after their teeth and what food is good and bad for them.
Kingfisher class walked around the village finding out what buildings and shapes they could see. They saw the Post Office, Vets, Garage and Church. They found circle, triangles, squares and rectangles.
Our new School Council were recently elected. One of their first decisions was deciding on the ‘Theme’ and ‘Names’ for the ‘House Groups’. It was decided, after much discussion, that the names of the Houses will be ‘Foxes’, ‘Badgers’, ‘Hedgehogs’ and ‘Otters’.
Four boys from the Swans class were selected to take part in a recent Table Tennis Competition and whilst they didn’t make it to the final, played really well and were proud to represent the school.
As part of their topic based on ‘Food’, Woodpeckers Class visited Pizza Express in Colchester to learn all about what happens in a restaurant and they even got the chance to make and eat their own pizzas!
The children from Woodpeckers, Owls and Swans, recently had a morning dedicated to Tag Rugby. They took part in lots of different activities and games all linked to Rugby. A fun time was had by all.
