Weekly Newsletter - Friday 15th November

Welcome to our new weekly newsletter. Here you will find news about all the exciting things that have happened this week.

Wonderful Watercolours! This week, Year 1 have been painting fruit using watercolours. They have also been tasting fruit

and writing poems about them.

Year Two Historical Enquiry We used a variety of enquiry methods in history this week to learn about Neil Armstrong. Here are some pictures of Year 2 using the internet,

books, old newspapers and pictures to find out as much as we could.

Fruit Tasting We tried some delicious fruits in year one and

talked about how they tasted! Yum!

The Yark

Year Six had fun this week acting out a chapter from the Yark. The Yark is a monster who only

eats good children. He visits a small, well behaved girl called

Charlotte, who is strangely happy to see him. She finally gets to act badly, so the Yark doesn't

eat her! There are some very talented actors and actresses in Year Six playing the part of

both the Yark and Charlotte!

We’re Going to Wembley! In fact… we went to Wembley! Some Year 5 and 6

children had an incredible opportunity to watch the England v Montenegro game at Wembley Stadium

this week! What an incredible experience.

Donations should go into the recycling bin in the cupboard outside Shirley’s office. Thank you
