Reception have been learning all about the story behind Chinese New Year. It is a story called “The Great Race” involving the animals of the Chinese Zodiac. The children were tasked with retelling the story, focusing on the beginning, middle and end.
We could believe the amazing story that James produced. What a fantastic job!
Year One are very concerned about the whereabouts of the Big, Bad Wolf. He was last spotted in our storytelling area, however there have been possible sightings throughout school and outside. Year One are currently looking for any clues as to where he could be hiding. If you find him, please let Year One know immediately.
On Friday, we had a very special visitor in our school….Emma Lewell-Buck.
The Year 6 children had written letters to her as part of their debate on where new houses should be build in our area. In her role as Labour party MP for South Shields she came to talk to us about what she thought and also to give us an insight into what life is like in the Houses of Parliament.
We asked some very challenging questions and enjoyed hearing her responses.
Here are a few pictures of the day and also a couple of questions and answers.
Year Four thoroughly enjoyed their visit to the cinema to see ‘Swallows and Amazons’! The film was great and we were thrilled with our surprise snacks! All children were impeccably behaved and a credit to Marsden!
This week Nursery have been learning about the story behind Chinese New Year, “The Great Race”.
We made a list of some of the animals in the race and I could not be prouder of the children and their process in mark making.
Here is a selection from Anais, Dylan, Alice, Georgie, Layla and Olivia. Well done everyone!
Congratulations to Jessica, Keira and Abigail on passing their Royal Music Bronze award for violin.
