Wear Red Day Friday 2nd February We are supporting Wear Red Day for the charity Keeping the Beat. We all came to school wearing red. Keeping the Beat is a charity which helps children and their families who need special care to look after their hearts.
Instructions for our jigsaw puzzles. Using numbers to order them and bossy verbs to make them clear, we have written instructions on how to solve our jigsaw puzzles. After writing the instructions we followed each other's instructions and solved the puzzles we had made.
Children came to school dressed as scientists and enjoyed solving puzzles in Professor Spark's Laboratory. It was a super way to begin our new topic and the children were extremely enthusiastic and creative!
Year 2 are loving their new homework project linked to their topic 'Brainwaves'. They look fantastic! Many thanks to our very creative parents for helping their child!
Year 1 and 2 held a Christingle making workshop with parents. Christingles are made from an orange decorated with red tape, sweets and a candle.Each piece of the Christingle holds special symbolism to help children understand the importance of Jesus and its relevance at Christmas time.
- The orange represents the world
- The red ribbon (or tape) symbolises the love and blood of Christ
- The sweets and dried fruit represent all of God’s creations
- The lit candle represents Jesus’s light in the world, bringing hope to people living in darkness
Afterwards we held a traditional Christingle parade on the school playground with children, parents and grandparents whilst singing Christmas carols.
