School Fun!

Our Nativity Trip To Perlethorpe

We had such a lovely time on our school trip. The children were so brave and did so well enacting the Nativity story with Keith. Everyone worked so hard in the classroom too, making lovely Christmas decorations. Thank you to all the children for being so well behaved and trying their best, and to the adults who came with us. Without your support the trip would not have been possible, you were a wonderful help to us and the children.

We were stars in our Nativity Play!

We really enjoyed learning all the songs for our Wriggly Nativity! We were all amazing stars!

Worksop White Watch came to visit!

We were thrilled to have Worksop fire brigade come to visit! They helped us learn all about how to stay safe, about the dangers of fire and about how fire fighters help people. They showed us their fire engine and we had a go at holding the hose and sitting in the cabin! All the children were very brave and very polite. 

Bonfire Night!

To celebrate Bonfire Night on the 5th November, we had a Fireworks Party! Mr Guest sent us a letter to say he would buy us some fireworks and we had to organise the party. We needed to make a list of all the things we needed to buy and then, before the party, we needed to prepare the food and drinks. We learned about how to stay safe while Mrs Newton lit the fireworks. The hot dogs, party punch and firework biscuits were yummy and the fireworks were amazing! BANG, CRACKLE, POP and FIZZ!! 

We visited Worksop Library

We had a lovely sunny walk to the library! We really impressed the librarian with our excellent listening skills and with how knowledgeable we were. I think he thought we were the best class of children he had ever worked with! Everyone enjoyed the stories he read and then had chance to explore the books. It was a super morning!

 

 

Comic Relief Fun!

We had such a funny day raising money for Comic Relief! We found the joke competition hilarious, well done to Lexi and Alana for the winning jokes! We also loved playing Pin the Red Nose on Mrs Newton!!!

Learning About Chinese New Year

We had a great time learning about Chinese New Year! We received a New Year card and an information DVD through the post and enjoyed learning about how the festival is celebrated. We learned the skills of ribbon dancing, made lucky money envelopes and cooked Chinese food. We made a dragon head and performed our own dragon dance outside!
