Cooking on a budget with Parents and Children.

The first session was great, the children tried lots of new food, some they loved some they didn’t, all had a great time.  Can’t wait to hear how cooking with the slow cookers INEOS provided for us goes.  

We celebrated World Book Day by decorating our classroom doors as our favourite story book.

Some of our children went to visit  Poppy Dene (Extra Care Living Development)

Have a look at our images below:

Well done to all the children who have raised £107.80 for Comic Relief.

This is our kindness tree. Whenever a pupil shows kindness they are given a red balloon and it is displayed on our kindness tree. Well done to those who have already shown so much kindness during our first week back at school.

We have been following some of the Oak National Academy lessons.

One that we particularly enjoyed was the experiment learning about how water is transported in a plant.  The children in Year 3 were all given a piece of celery and could choose a food colouring of their choice (red, blue or green).

We watched the Oak National Academy lesson, and then set up our experiments. We left them a week, and then checked out our results. The children who used blue had the best results!

As part of Culture week at school for the past few weeks Year 3 have been learning about Spain.

They looked at the work of Salvador Dali, and then tried to create some simple start-stop animations using Dali inspired animals.

Have a look at some of the start-stop animations we created. We’re pretty impressed, as it was a first attempt!
