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.
This week our friends from Broseley C of E school came and joined us for a multi skills afternoon.
Some children from Year 5 and 6 ran a range of different activities, which included batting skills, hockey, kurling and bowling. The activity leaders did an amazing job.
Reception class have been studying the painting 'Les Betes de la Mer' by Matisse this week. We talked about what we could see in the painting and the techniques that the artist used. The children worked in groups to create their own interpretations.
Year 1 have been thinking about how humans change over time. We talked about some of the things we can now do that we couldn't as a baby. They brought their favourite baby photo in and played a guessing game to see if they could match the picture to the correct person. They had lots of fun!.
At forest school this week, the Reception class used natural items to create sounds and music. We used sticks, stones and leaves amongst other things! The children experimented with the different sounds they could make. They even made a forest school band!
Year 3 have been learning how to prepare and cook a variety of predominantly savoury dishes using a range of cooking techniques. They prepared and cooked ratatouille and then enjoyed tasting it!
Year 2 had an amazing day at the seaside! The sun was shining all day and they all had lots of fun on the beach.
Today the Y2s from John Wilkinson and Broseley CofE have had a lovely afternoon doing some fun orienteering, working together as a team. Great work everybody!
Year 1 had lots of fun dressing up as Victorian children on Friday. They used slates, did technical drawings, played Victorian games and learnt about the differences between schools now and then.
Year 3 have been learning about fractions. We compared factions by pouring liquid into containers to see which was the greatest amount.
Thank you very much to @SainsburysBridgnorthSuperstore and Coop Broseley @TeamBroseley for providing our children with a variety of healthy snacks and fruit to enjoy at break time on Thursday. It was great to see so many children trying something new.
If you would like to download the NHS food app, the school nurses pointed out to the children in our assembly on how to keep yourself healthy and ready to learn, you can find it here.
In Nursery this week, we have been learning about ‘The Big Wide World’. We have looked at maps and globes and thought about different countries. Using information books and the internet children have enjoyed researching fun facts about various countries including different climates, traditions and foods, and how they compare to our country.
This week Year 4 looked at Egyptian statues, statuettes and figurines which links to our English and History topic this half term! The children enjoyed sketching some famous Egyptians… can you guess who they are?
