Cut Throat Celts

 

What a fantastic day we had out in the Forest on Wednesday. The school was thrown back 2,000 years and invaded by Cut Throat Celts. There was tribal flag designing, bread cooking over the fire, spear whittling, pinch pot preparing, thatcher's thatching and medallion making. The sun was shining for us all and the kitchen prepared a delicious Celtic stew with porridge and berries to follow! As you can tell a great day was had by all! Please enjoy the photos! Have a wonderful Easter 🐇

Celt Day

Celt Day

Fractious fractions Cut Throat Celts!

 The weeks are speeding by and we can't believe we only have one week left until Easter! The children have firmly settle back into the routine and we are filling their days as soon as they enter the classroom. The clubs are still an important part of the day and we are certainly setting up homeowners of the future with no bake cookery skills and shoe polishing!

Fractions are continuing throughout maths and a visual aid that's helpful to learning all about fractions a is a fraction wall. 

In RE the children have been learning about the lead up to Easter in the Christian faith and they have created their own Last Supper guest list, IF another lockdown came - hopefully not the case and we're sorry to say not many brothers or sisters were allowed as they would be in lockdown with them so they didn't want them at their meal! Over the next week we will be finishing our Easter wreaths ready for the holiday. 

Drama has played a part this week as the children have been creating a 'heated' discussion between Boudicca and the Roman Governor Suetonius -  we know the Romans defeated Boudicca back in the battle of Watling Street in AD60 but we're not so sure she would have been captured in 2021!

Looking forward to Celt day next Wednesday when we will bring those Cut throat Celts to life!

Crazy hair and funky fractions

 Red Nose day brought lots of crazy hairdos! Lots of Mummies must have been up early plaiting, crimping, curling and dying hair! We had a lovely morning and were treated to Red Nose day cakes for dessert at lunchtime - they were yummy!

 

The next couple of weeks were are looking at fractions. We enjoyed using Lego to help us recognise them and test our friends.

We also enjoyed making a fraction wall whilst finding the equivalent fractions.

We hope the dye, gel, plaits and bobbles (and bird nest!) washes out of the children's hair without any tears before bedtime! 

Have a fabulous weekend.
