Good afternoon everyone,
This week, the standout events had to be boxercise and tennis! I think with the weather improving, the PE sessions seemed to be very memorable!
First off, during boxercise, I was amazed by the memories of the class. They had remembered many of the different techniques covered previously and were putting them into great combinations with their padded-up partners! Then, to top it off, I was utterly in awe of the hard work that was put in during a boxing circuit session! The class were red and sweaty by the end and it is no wonder. The effort and commitment on show was brilliant and the form that the pupils were trying to keep to was amazing.
In tennis, Wimbledon better watch out! The class were working on their forehands and volleys and I was so proud to see such a huge amount of control on show! Matt from Thongsbridge Tennis Club could not stop singing the praises of the skills being practised.
Thanks everyone, have a great weekend!

Good afternoon everyone,
We have had a great week here in class two, we've been busy bees in maths and English, brushing up on lots of grammar and retelling the story of 'The Mousehole Cat'. I was blown away by some of the homework I was given this week. Brilliant persuasive writing! During maths, the class have been awesome and using alternative methods to work out a wide range of number sentences!
We have been exploring the history of seaside holidays and the children were amazed to draw the link between the invention and rollout of the railways and the influence this had on holidays in the past.
What a fantastic afternoon we had in the wild area! We read The Lighthouse Keeper’s Lunch, made an amazing picnic in the mud kitchen and created some fantastic transportation methods. Some of us made great progress in the garden area as well!

Good afternoon all,
We have had a lovely day today! We have celebrated the coronation as a whole school by getting together on the playground and performing our sounds from across the decades and singing the national anthem. The class looked ace in all their red, white and blue. I hope the celebrations continue over the weekend!
Enjoy it, everyone!
Thanks

Good afternoon everybody,
This week in class two we have been going seaside crazy!
During English lessons, we have been learning about a different culture using the classic story: The Mousehole Cat. The story is set all the way down on the south coast of Cornwall, between Penzance and Land's End in the postcard-perfect village of Mousehole. The old world setting and the charming characters have captured the children's imaginations and have led to some lovely discussion and writing.
Throughout our history lessons, we have looked at some old and new photographs of seaside holidays and discussed what we have learnt from them as sources..
Maths has been a mixture of working with money to make totals and work out change and also using tens and ones accurately to add and subtract.
Thanks to everyone for all your hard work and enjoy the weekend!

Hi everyone,
FIRE! FIRE!
As a conclusion to our half term of learning about the Great Fire of London, we received a visit from the Home Valley Fire Service. They brought up their appliance from the station and talked to the class about how they keep us safe and respond to emergencies. The children got to handle some of the hoses and were preparing to squirt some water when the team got the signal to attend to a real emergency and had to leave a little prematurely. They have said they will be back to see us soon.
