"Stepping Out" with Constable Kendrick.




For the last two weeks of term we are learning about Road Safety through the Stepping Out programme.  The aim of the programme is to encourage and assist children to behave in a safe way as pedestrians or passengers in a traffic environment.  Constable Kendrick has come to help us with the kerb drill and is coming back to help us with patrols and wardens and bus safety.

Room 2's New Classroom


Due to our classroom being deemed as unsafe, we have moved into the hall. Room 14 and Room 3 are also in the hall. We have some dividers now and are still hopeful of some carpet. The children have all adapted very well to the changes and look on it as a bit of an adventure!

Team One's Discovery Day on the 31st of August 2012





Last Friday Team One had another Discovery Day. Room 1 had been studying the letter "i" so the activities were dress-ups and musical instruments, yoghurt ice-cream, insects and igloos. Room 14 had been studying the letter "v" so the activities were making a volcano, painting violets, making vultures and playing with vehicles. In Room 2 we had been studying the "gr" blend. The activities were planting seeds to grow, making origami and clothes peg grasshoppers, putting grated cheese on grainy bread and grilling it and playing "Grab the Bean Bag." Room 3 had a pet theme and you could make pet poppoids, pet puppets, dog biscuits, a fish and a kennel for a dog. We all had to try and do two manipulative activities to show at the end.

Our Trip to the S.P.C.A.





On Wednesday the 29th of September Room 2 walked to the S.P.C.A. We went as part of our Inquiry Unit. Jo talked to us about what they do at the S.P.C.A. and then showed us around. They are expecting to get a lot of cats soon but only have two there at the moment plus her cat Fleur who was visiting.
Here are some of the stories we wrote.
"I patted the cat. She is soft. My Mum came there too. We walked there because it was a sunny day. I felt happy because I liked the animals." by Grace
"I went to the S.P.C.A. I liked the S.P.C.a. because they had so many puppies. I like the puppies." by Dion
"We went to the S.P.C.A. We walked all the way there. When we got there it was noisy. There was a cat caled Fleur. Jo said she was just having a visit. She doesn't have a bed. I really enjoyed the dog." by Kayan
