Today in Geography, Y1 learnt about Brazil and Australia. We had a carnival afternoon looking at Rio Carnival traditions. We tried Brazilian foods, made carnival masks and did some Samba dancing.

Y6 food tasting

The children in Y6 have enjoyed trying some Chin Chin that George kindly brought in after we read about it in our class novel Boy in the Tower. Chin Chin is a sweet and crunchy fried dough snack popular in Nigeria and other West African countries.

Painting in preschool ❤️🎨☺️

Today our preschoolers had so much fun creating sea life art! 🌊🎨

We used special sea animal stampers to make colorful underwater pictures. 🐠🐙🐢 The children loved pressing the stampers to see which ocean friend would appear next! 💙✨

Such a fun and creative way to explore sea life! 🐳🌊

Preschool went on our second CAFOD Lent Walk! 🚶‍♀️💛🪴

We had a lovely surprise on the way when we saw Mr Keen bringing some beautiful flowers to plant, getting everything ready for spring. 🌼🌷 The children enjoyed stopping to look at them and talking about how they will grow.

During our walk we looked at all of God’s wonderful world around us. We spotted lots of spring flowers beginning to blossom and enjoyed the sun shining as we walked together. ☀️ It was a lovely opportunity to talk about how the world changes in spring and to appreciate the beauty of nature.

Well done Preschool for another fantastic walk! 🌿

Walk around our local area

In Geography, Year 1 have been learning about their local area. They went on a walk around the local area and looked out for human and physical features. They then drew maps of the area and added a simple key.

Homework Coffee Afternoon

As always, we were delighted to welcome families into school to celebrate and share all the fantastic effort children have put into their homework projects. Thank you for supporting your child to be creative and share their learning. We were so impressed with each and every project.

Gods Wonderful World 🌎🌸🪵

🌸🌼🌷 Today some of our Preschool children enjoyed a lovely walk around the school grounds. 🚶‍♀️🚶‍♂️ As we explored, the children noticed the beautiful flowers growing around us and took time to admire their bright colours and wonderful shapes. 🌺🌻🌹🌼

🌍✨ The children reflected on how thankful they are for God’s amazing creation and were inspired to hold an impromptu Celebration of the Word 🙏📖 to thank God for the flowers 🌷🌸 and the wonderful world He has made. 🌞☁️🌈🦋🐝

💛 It was a very special moment filled with awe, wonder and appreciation. One child beautifully summed up our thoughts by saying, “I love God’s flowers.” 🌼💐🥰

🌿🌺 We are so proud of the children for recognising the beauty in God’s creation, taking time to pause and appreciate it, and giving thanks for the many blessings around us. 🙏✨💚🌍
