Year 1 Christmas Party 🎉🎁🎅🏻

Yesterday we had a lovely Christmas party with year 1. They were all very well behaved and were very gracious in defeat if they didn't win a game. We hope everyone has a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year! 

Superstar 🌟

Our superstar was chosen for showing her devloping maturity and more concentration on the things that matter such as her work which has impressed me recently! Good work! 👍🏻

Look who came to school today!

We had some special visitors in school today - local fire fighters! 🔥👷🏼 They were kindly giving up their time to show and tell us about the equipment, clothing and gadgets they use to fight fires nowadays. This is because we have been studying the 'Great Fire of London' in 1666 as part of our history topic and we have been learning about how people used to deal with fires compared to now. They didn't have a fire service or fire fighters back then - just some frantic people throwing buckets of Thames water onto the flames! 💦The following pictures have questions attached - ask your child the questions to see what they have learned today! 😊

Our recent kindness tasks!

Just some of the daily kindness tasks we have been undertaking at school over the past 2 weeks 😊

 

 

And look out for these in the children's bags tomorrow!

 

Adding and subtracting games 🎲

Today we have been playing adding and subtracting dice games to help consolidate our learning. If the children have dice at home, this is really good way to practice their sums! 🎲🎲

Busy elves have been working hard in 1G this week!

The children have been taking it in turns to become Santa's elves for the morning and have been making and wrapping presents for the other children in Santa's workshop. Making a toy from the children's wish lists using classroom objects and crafts required lots of creative thinking and they all tried really hard - especially green group who really got into the role of it! The children will open these presents during the last week and the aim is to learn about the kindness of giving as well as receiving. Don't they look fabulous! 🎄🎁

Year 1 Christmas craft afternoon

On Thursday afternoon we had a lovely time in year 1 making lots of Christmassy crafts with the help of our parent volunteers. A big thank you to all who came, we hope you enjoyed it too. Here are some of the photos the children and parents took with our Christmas props!

WILF's visit!

This week 1G have had the pleasure of WILF the attendance teddy as last week we had the best attendance in the infants.
