Shared reading

3rd March 2026Fiona Wilson

At the end of last half term, Mrs Potter was blown away by the children’s writing in Y2 so she desperately wanted the children in Y6 to enjoy it too! The older children were very impressed by Y2’s creative writing and were thoroughly entertained – just what a great story should do.

Y6 had enjoyed the opportunity to free write in English this week and produced stories with a moral for their special friends in reception. It was good to have a real purpose for writing and the Y6 children took real pride in producing some lovely tales for their younger friends.

We hope you love what you find inside! 💕

We have loved learning the story of the great race in EYFS this week and couldn’t wait to wear the dragons head and perform our own dragon dance. To continue our learning about Lunar New Year celebrations we have also made muddy noodles in the mud kitchen, blossom trees in the art area and even wrote our names in Chinese.
