To kick off Spring 2, we explored equal groups by answering fluency questions and using cubes to make them. We are all amazing math magicians! 🌟
The children have enjoyed learning about France and have worked hard on their greetings, numbers to 10, colours and finished off enjoying some French goodies tonight such as baguette, crepes and cheese!
As part of our World Book Day Celebrations Year 2 and Year 6 enjoyed being reading buddys!
Over the last two days, every child from Reception to Year 6 has taken part in a STEM project.in collaboration with the KAPLA workshop team. They have learned how to work as a team and shown resilience and engagement with the process in order to complete their final build.
We have built ski villages, giraffes, houses, crocodiles, boats and so much more! The wooden bricks needed to be carefully placed to make different shapes that would stand tall. There was no glue, no fixing mechanisms, just pure determination and a methodical, systematic approach.
We are so proud of what we managed to achieve together! A massive thank you to all of those parents and adults that helped our children enjoy an amazing learning experience.
The school council decided that they would like to buy some resources for our chilckens and ducks.
In assembley they launched the idea of a bake sale to the whole school. Each member of the student council explained why they loved our animals so much and how important they were to everyone in school.
The children made 300 cakes and dedicated some of their lunch break to sell them to the rest of the school.
Everyone loved their cake and Wow!!! we raised £75.93. The next decision is what to buy!!
In Autumn 1, as part of our art topic, we created a self-portrait in the style of Alexie Jawlenksy. We drew our portraits using specific shaped features to try to portray a happy or sad face. We then coloured in using pastels, using the “rule of 3” to layer and blend. After, we worked in partners to evaluate our own work and say how we would further improve our art in the future.
Representing Hedworthfield Primary some of our school councillors, attended the Remembrance Day Ceremony at Monkton Cenotaph.
Members of the student council presented a wreath, on behalf of the school and displayed some art work, that the chilkdren had produced to show their respect.
The children have taken part in class elections. They wrote a manifesto and presented their ideas to their classmates. We discussed the UK voting system and British values before attending our very own Polling Station to vote.
The successful candidates were announced by our special guests Cllr G Kilgour and Cllr J Potts.
Well done everyone!
Today our student council planted an apple tree in our Forest School. So we can always remember The Queen’s Platium Jubilee we also placed a commerative plaque next to the tree.
