Year 1 Space Workshops
Mon 29 Jan 2024Today we welcomed Mr Chaplin from WJS. He came to talk to each of our Year 1 classes all about Space. As well as talking all about the different planets, he shared lots of fascinating information all about the first moon landing. The children had the opportunity to act out Neil Armstrong taking his first step on the moon and we all joined in with the famous quote ‘one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind’. We learnt some extraordinary facts about how astronauts survive in Space including what they eat and how they go to the toilet! At the end of the session we asked lots of thoughtful space related questions which Mr Chaplin answered brilliantly!

World Religions Day 2024
Mon 22 Jan 2024Today all of the children were given the exciting opportunity to take part in our very first World Religions Day. Each year group was allocated a different religion which was then explored and discussed as an extended curriculum opportunity:
Year R - Judaism Year 1 - Islam Year 2 - Hinduism
Through a range of music, art and stories, the children had the chance to complete an array of creative tasks to extend their knowledge and understanding of different religions. In each class, the children learnt about the key beliefs and places of worship for their focus religion. To make the day even more special, Year 2 even enjoyed a visit from the Year 6 classes at the Juniors to create some very colourful Rangoli patterns using chalks.
