In History, we have been learning about Greek gods and goddesses.

In Art, we have created beautiful Christmas cards and decorations for our tree.

We have been comparing the Gospel accounts of the nativity story and thinking about how we can prepare for Jesus’ coming in RE.

Well done to Tom Amos who is our star of the week. He has flourished in his Maths work since he came back in September. He works hard and is a pleasure to have in class. What a superstar! Keep it up!

What a busy week- finishing Christmas cards and decorations and putting the finishing touches to our calendars. We have all tried so hard in our work this week as we finish off our topics ready for when we come back after the holidays. We are really looking forward to our Christmas fun next week!

This week’s star is Zac. Zac has shown great enthusiasm for writing this week. He has worked really hard and has been really keen to get his thoughts down on paper.

In Science, we have been continuing to explore the importance of recycling. We have made some recycled paper using scrap paper. The children are really excited to find out whether it has worked.

In RE, we have retold the Christmas story and have made some fantastic Christmas cards based on the Annunciation.

We are continuing to make our Christmas decorations in DT and have been amazed by the children’s sewing and cutting skills.

A huge well done to our star of the week, Jenny! Jenny has worked her socks off in Maths this week. She has been the first to answer and her enthusiasm is infectious!

In class this week, we looked at the ‘Christmas Jolly Postman’ story. The children then planned and wrote their own fantastic letters to Santa. In Maths, we have been looking at finding one more than numbers to 5- thanks to those of you who completed the Christmas tree homework! We also enjoyed creating some Christmas decorations to surprise you at home.

Meanwhile, in Topic, we learned all about the 4 seasons. Using finger painting to depict a tree through the year, singing a song all about the seasons and sorting/packing clothes for different times of year.
