Letter writing in Bats class

The Bats class have been busy writing letters to each other this week.  We have been learning about the features of a letter and the process the letters go through before they get to your door.  They were very excited to finally post the letters yesterday.  Watch out for some post this week!

Healthy Food Visit

Key Stage One and Foundation Stage were led by Linda, who works for Asda and is their community champion.  She talked to the children about how to be healthy, including keeping active and eating well.  
Following the visit she wrote the following

'It was an absolute pleasure coming to visit.  The children at the school are a real credit to you all and they gave such a good impression.'  



Foundation Stage, Year One and Year Seven (Icknield) Drumming Fun!










The children had such a fantastic morning during our drumming workshop.  Led by Dr Leg, the Year Seven children performed with confidence and were patient teaching small groups how to use the djembes. We look forward to collaborating with them again soon.

Thank you to Mr Holdship who came in to visit Key Stage One to share his knowledge about dinosaurs.  The children enjoyed the experience of holding fossils, including teeth and dinosaur poo!

Hedgehogs' Star Gazing Evening

We were very fortunate to have a clear night for the children to enjoy star gazing. They were very excited to see Venus, Orion's belt and many other constellations. The Hedgehogs were lucky that one family brought their telescope so we were able to see craters on the moon. Amazing! Thank you to all the families who supported this event.
