The Nursery children were very concerned when they found out Goldilocks had eaten all of Baby Bear’s porridge so we jumped to the rescue. We counted out three spoonfuls of oats and poured in the milk, taking turns around the table. They did a great job of following instructions and loved being able to pick some yummy toppings to add to their own portion!
Today Year 3 investigated how far they could throw and collected their results. The children were excellent at measuring and collected their results accurately.
Do we have the next Olympic Champion in our class?
Today, Year Five had the most amazing day with Team Challenge Adventures, learning how to work as a team and survive whilst climbing “Mount Everest.” First on the agenda was putting up their own tents independently, then they competed in a variety of team building tasks including knot tying, bridge building and races. The overall winning team were “ The Fuji Warriors” but every single child was a shining ambassador for Marsden – encouraging one another, persevering and showing support and empathy towards their team mates. They should sleep tonight… I know the adults will!
Today Year 3 have taken part in Safer Internet Day. The children watched Webster’s Friend: https://youtu.be/WixQdofGds8
A lovely story about 2 spiders who are chatting online. We discussed the importance of being yourself and not telling lies and over exaggerating. The children also looked at why it is important to not share personal information online.
They created some beautiful posters which we will put up in our classroom
Well Done Year 3!
For the last four weeks, some of our EYFS families have taking part in some Fun with Maths sessions run by the Northern Learning Trust. They have been super stars 🌟
EYFS celebrated Safer Internet Day today by sharing the story of Dot.
Dot liked to play on her devices inside and had forgotten how much fun she could have outside unplugged.
You can share the story at home by clicking on the link below.
All of the children and staff would like to say we hope she has a restful time at home before the arrival of Baby Reed. We will miss her but can’t wait for cuddles 💛
This week marks Children’s Mental Health Week. All of our children joined in a special themed assembly this morning which looked at the theme ‘Let’s Connect’. We discussed different ways in which we connect with others and the importance of having these connections for our mental wellbeing. The children all pledged that they would look out for one another and try to recognise when they might need to make a connection with someone else in school.
Congratulations to our winners this week!
