When children are healthy, happy and safe, curiosity is ignited and learning is optimised. In this section, you will find out what children in school and nursery have been learning this week.
The year 6 children, and their families, joined us to celebrate their week away at Arthog. Staff took lots of wonderful photos for the children to share with everyone at home.
We are so proud of the children and all of their achievements. They have made lots of memories to cherish.
Reception Class have been reading the story of 'Mr Gumpy's Outing'. We thought about what we would take with us on our journey in his boat. We then made jam sandwiches for our trip. The children really enjoyed eating them too!

The Reception class have been thinking about the signs of Autumn. We collected items from our school grounds and had fun creating an autumn picture.
Year 3 and Year 4 recently visited Shropshire Hills Discovery Centre. We had a great time learning about life in the Stone Age. Thank you to everyone who helped us. 
Reception and Year 1 are enjoying our Friday music lessons! We are learning to find the pulse of a song and this week we learnt how to play along with the melody, using a simple scale - C, D, E, F, G. It sounded beautiful! 
Our Year 6 class headed off to Arthog last week, and had a fantastic week. We are all looking forward to hearing about their adventures!
Year 4 have been learning about the Stone Age Settlement of Skara Brae. We used Lego to build our own models of stone houses.
Year 1 have been learning all about colour and pattern in art. We were learning about printing techniques and exploring different textures we could make with autumn leaves and natural objects. The sun was finally shining for us to enjoy our lesson outside! 
Children in nursery have been having a lovely time settling back in over the last couple of weeks. Lots of fun activities have been keeping them busy!
Y4 have worked so hardlast week and everyone went 'above and beyond' in their work. Miss Kilby, Mrs Beard and Mr Carr were all really proud!
