What a beautiful week we have had at school! Even though it has been hot the children have shown excellent commitment to their learning. Our writing in English has been very impressive with some brilliant stories based on the Queen’s hat and a newspaper report to help find the Queen’s hat!

We have also enjoyed planting some seeds this week in Science. All the children are having a go at growing peas and recording over time what they see happening as well as understanding exactly what plants need to grow!

Have a wonderful weekend.

We had a fantastic day at Staunton. Thank you to everyone who was able to help, it is always much appreciated. The sun was shining and the children had such wonderful hands on experiences with the animals.

We are looking forward to writing about our trip on Monday.

Hope you have a lovely weekend.

This week the children have enjoyed using measuring jugs and water to estimate and measure capacity. We had some wonderful mathematical language come from the children during the activities.

The children have also been hooked into their new topic which is ‘Where in the World’. We have enjoyed looking at a map of the school and walking around identifying all the physical features.

Just a reminder to parents/carers who haven’t returned their child’s permission slip for Stanton if they could do so by Monday 12th June. Many thanks to the parents who have already offered to help. If anyone else would be available on the Wednesday that would be great. Please let Mrs Layton or Miss Allen know.

Have a lovely weekend
