Thanks to all those that came to Opal class Stay & Maths this morning, the children had a fantastic time! We hope to see you next Thursday 1st February for money week!

This morning Opal class have been practising finding half of shapes by folding them. They have also been designing the front cover for their book Jack and the Beanstalk which we will be completing this week.

This morning Opal Class have been practising their number bonds to 10, including playing speed games! We also looked at words to describe Jack and the Giant from Jack and the Beanstalk. We were learning about the un prefix and how this changes the meaning of words like fair to unfair.

KS1 had a surprise visit from Santa Claus this afternoon. He delivered presents to all the children and they spent their break time trying to spot his sleigh on the roof. Thank you Santa!

Opal Class has great fun trying to pin the mince pie into Santa’s mouth! A lot of children complained that they couldn’t see the board – we tried to explain that that’s the idea!

Crystal Class had fun today playing Dreidel today. Thankyou Topanga for bringing this in for the class!

This morning Opal class were planning a route for Santa to their house, also stopping by Oxford! We are learning up, down, left and right directions. Some children even looked at using North, South, East and West. Well done Opal class you worked very hard!

This morning Opal class have been practising their spelling to find out which ones we need to practise. They did fantastic and tried so hard! You will find these in their reading folders, please practise at home if you can.

Unfortunately, the trip to the botanic gardens was not able to go ahead today due to the weather! We are hopefully going to rearrange for January.

Hope to see you all for the pantomime tomorrow: 9:30am or 5:30pm or both!

KS1 had so much fun playing in the snow this afternoon! We found some bird prints and also wrote our names in the crunchy, flaky snow! We have been writing acrostic poems in English and we have been sharing by 2 and using the divide sign in maths. We are still looking at trees and plants as part of our topic.
