This week some of our Year 1 children were chosen to take part in Cricket activities at Temple Park. There were lots of throwing activities, catching, group games, batting games and we were introduced to new skills.
Y1T enjoyed a coastal walk to explore special features of the seaside. We began at Trow Rocks and spotted lots of human and physical features. We even stopped for a delicious ice cream on the way, making our trip extra special!
Last week Y1M got to explore our local coastline. As part of our Georgraphy topic, we have been learning about the difference between human features and physical features of our local area. The children were excellent at spotting the different landmarks and used their checklists to find them.
After a long walk along our beautiful beach, the children earned a delicious ice cream from Minchellas! A little treat for all their hard work this year.
It was a lovely day and the children enjoyed exploring!
What a wonderful morning Y1K had at the beach. The children walked beautifully along the promenade , identifying human and physical features of the coast. Then we went for a delicious ice cream. We are really proud of them all and so glad they had the best time.
Before the Easter holidays, Year 1 were very excited to welcome our parents into school to help us decorate our eggs.
We had a fantastic time and created some amazing entries. Thank you to all the grown ups who came to help us.
Today we received a visit from Elizabeth (the RE storyteller). We enjoyed listening to the Easter story and used props while Elizabeth spoke about the events that took place on Good Friday and Easter Sunday. Together, we spoke about why these days are important to Christians.
WOW! What an outstanding effort year 1 made for World Book Day. The children loved dressing up and talking about their most loved stories.
Last week Year 1 had a fabulous visit from author and illustrator Liz Million. She taught us lots about how she draws illustations for stories and showed us how to create characters with simple shapes like a taco, a chicken nugget and even a potato!
The children followed along as Liz taught us how to draw characters from the traditional tale Hansel and Gretel.
We had so much fun and created amazing illustrations!
