In Nursery Class this week the children have beenlooking at themselves with the topic All about Me.In these photos, they were creating tally charts of

the different eye colours of their friends and theywill be looking at old photos of when they werebabies, their families and how they live.

Welcome back and a Happy New Year to you all! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas andNew Year and you have noticed that your children are getting back into the swing of waking upand getting sleepy earlier. It has been a good start to the year and there will be many greatthings to look back on by the time term ends in July. This kicks off with a trip for Years 1, 2 and 3 tothe Science Museum next week as they explore their new Enrichment Time topic. Please

remember to keep up with the blog and do like us on Facebook. What’s not to like! If I’ve notseen you already this year, I look forward to seeing you soon. Have a great weekend. Rob.

In Year 2 this week we started the topic of ‘Reach for the Stars’ (Space) and thechildren were looking at how Earth is the optimum place for life to grow and that otherplanets, because of the climate differences (among other things) affected this. Hereare the children trying out their own Venus, Earth and Saturn planets at different

temperatures!

In Year 1 (and Year 2) they were introduced to their new Enrichment Time topic ‘Reach for theStars’ and as well as beginning to look at space and the planets, they also looked at theirambitions for what they currently want to do when they’re older. The children featured belowwant to be footballers, play the piano and be a queen of the animals and drive a bus.

We wanted to see how the children would settle back into school after three weeks off, so the Starsof the Week went to children who seamlessly got back into the flow of school and showedmotivation to make a great start to the year. Well done to these children! Next week the focus is onplayground behaviour, kindness, sharing and enjoying our facilities responsibly.

The Musician of the Week goes to Robyn in Nursery Class. Her behaviour and level of effortduring Tuesday's music session was amazing! She really enjoyed singing Auld Lang Syneand took part in the dance with enthusiasm. Well done you!

The rtist of the Week goes to Olivia M in Nursery Class for her brilliant self-portrait she drew inconjunction with Nursery Class’ topic ‘ All about Me’. Lovely work Olivia!
