Y5 Story Slam

This week, our amazing Year 5 students took the stage at the annual UL event StorySLAM held at Hunningley Primary Academy in Barnsley! 🌟 StorySLAM is a super exciting storytelling competition for Y5 & Y6 pupils, where they get to write and perform their very own stories. It's all about sparking creativity, building confidence, and honing those presentation skills!

We're especially excited to share that this year's special guest was Dan Freedman, author of the beloved Jamie Johnson series! The students were absolutely thrilled to meet him! A massive shoutout to Efah for representing our school with such poise and respect. Way to go, Efah! 🎉

🌟Fun Learning in FS2 🌟

This week in FS2, we had an absolutely fantastic time celebrating and learning about Chinese New Year! Here’s a little glimpse into our fun activities:

🍪 We made our very own fortune cookies for our friends using paper - how cool is that? And of course, we couldn’t resist enjoying some real fortune cookies while reading our own fortunes!

📮 We wrote red envelopes for our friends, a lovely gesture to spread some good luck and cheer!

📚 We even picked up how to say “hello” and “thank you” in Chinese!

🐉 We dove into the story of the great race and discovered all the fascinating animals of the Chinese zodiac!

🥢 In the funky fingers area, we had a blast using chopsticks – it was a delightful challenge!

🎊 We learned about how different people celebrate Chinese New Year, embracing the richness of traditions around the world.

🌳 And of course, we made our wishes for the Chinese wishing tree. Fingers crossed for good fortune all around!

Additionally, we were thrilled to watch the eggs hatch into adorable chicks! It’s been a week filled with wonder and joy! 🐣✨

Bikeability

Y5 has been having an absolute blast with their Bikeability lessons! They’re loving every moment of riding their bikes and learning how to stay safe on the road. It’s so much fun to see their smiles as they zoom around! Keep pedaling, Y5! 🌟💚

5 Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day

Our Nursery children had a lovely time exploring our “5 Little Ducks” themed water tray as part of our farm learning! 🦆🚜

We sang “5 Little Ducks Went Swimming One Day”, practised our counting, and enjoyed scooping and pouring in our little farm pond. A fun way to build early maths skills through hands-on play! 💦🌾
