Dear Parents and Carers,

 

Weekly Roundup – Infants 

 

We’ve made it to the end of another term packed with learning, curiosity, creativity, and fun! We have also survived these peculiar artic temperatures that have enabled some of us to try sledging for the first time in the Willow Garden!  

 

The week started the week with our visit to Church where we marched through the snow and ice to sing with the junior children. On Tuesday volunteers from the church, alongside some fabulous year 6’s came and delivered the Stable Trail. It was great fun and got us thinking more deeply about the Christmas Story.

On Wednesday it was Christmas Dinner and Christmas Jumper day. Click here for photos 

 

Discovery Themes

 

The children have also loved their Discovery Topics this term. 

Sylvie said, ‘ I loved learning the Nativity. I was a child in pyjamas and my favourite song was ‘Mary Mary What a Surprise’. 

Luke said, ‘I made a giant map using foam and orbies. When we went around Larkhall we saw a brook and it made we think of playing Pooh sticks. 

Zac said, ‘When we went around Larkhall we had a search sheet. The church was on it. We went to the church to sing.’ 

Juno said, ‘I know that Larkhall is in Bath and Bath is in England and England is part of the UK.’ 

 

Physics competition 

 

Thank you to everyone who has sent in photographs or videos of their science experiments. Louise and Claire have been so impressed with the entries. They will be sharing the winner early next term and everyone who has taken part will receive a certificate. We will also share the photos and videos with the children. 

School Council 

 

The School Council met on Wednesday and counted the funds raised during Bedtime story. They were thrilled with the £50 that we have collected for Book Trust. The children were also pleased to have received in the post a thank you from Julian House for the food and toiletries that we collected for Harvest. The children want to say a huge thank you to everyone for supporting these events. Click here

Farewell to Lisa

 

In assembly today the staff and children said a sad farewell and a huge thank you to Lisa who has been making out lunches for 9 years. We worked out that that was about 438750 lunches in total! We wish Lisa lots of luck in her new adventures. 

 

Lastly a jolly well done to teachers, parents and carers who have done an amazing job of getting  very excited and tired children to the end of term with smiles on their faces.
