Creative Seed – dance workshops

11th July 2023Fiona Wilson

To celebrate the opening of the new coastal path in September, Creative Seed have worked with all our children to rehearse an amazing carnival dance.
The children have been encouraged to attend the parade and join in the dances – once we know more specific information we will be sure to let you know!

👂 Listening Walk 👂

26th June 2023M Hanratty

Last week, the children and staff may have spotted Nursery exploring the school on our listening walks! We used our listening ears and heard some quiet sounds as well as some loud sounds, even making our own sounds.

Can you guess what we heard?

Well Done Year 6!

17th May 2023M Hanratty

EYFS wanted to say a massive “Well Done!” To Year 6 for their mature and positivity during SAT’s Week. We made them a little good luck card by drawing something to make them smile with a poem on the back.

Then on Friday, we made the trip up to the Year 6 classroom armed with cookies for our smart cookies 🍪

We hope you liked your treats as they were well deserved.

Coronation Celebrations in EYFS

12th May 2023M Hanratty

The EYFS children enjoyed participating in a variety of different coronation themed activities yesterday. Dressed in red white and blue we made crowns, had a tea party, created decorations and many more.

Mrs Walton even had the opportunity to make cakes with the Nursery children which were the highlight of the day.

Easter Patterns in Nursery

1st April 2023M Hanratty

Nursery staff have been blown away by the progress the children have shown in their pattern making and mathematical vocabulary.
The children went on a pattern hunt with Mrs Elliott around the school, finding patterns and describing them.
In the classroom, the children continued Easter Egg repeating patterns and then made their own repeating patterns. Some children wanted an even harder challenge so we created some ABBABB patterns!

Let’s Celebrate Holi

14th March 2023M Hanratty

EYFS are always eager to learn new information about the world, especially if it involves a celebration! Last week, we talked all about the Hindu festival Holi which is also called the “Festival of Colour”.

Traditionally, people throw coloured powder at each other however we decided to use a clever piece of technology called Sphero to help us spread colour. First, we squirted different coloured paint on a large white sheet. Then we made Sphero move by controlling a blue spot on the app.

We loved our final Holi masterpiece!
