We are SO proud of our hand puppets. The pupils have loved designing and making their hand puppets for Geppetto. We have used so many skills including cutting, sticking, drawing and listening. Arbennig pawb!

Ffair yr Nadolig ac arian!
Our Christmas products are coming along nicely but how much should we sell them for…?
Excel was the chosen software to help us decide. The formulas are often difficult to remember, even for adults, but some remembered the work they completed with Miss Jeakings earlier in the term.
Pyjama Drama
Thank you to Louise from Pyjama Drama. We had a fantastic time using our drama skills to pretend Pinocchio went on a plane to Spain where he had a fantastic camping holiday, swam in the sea, went to a park and had a train ride. We role-played that we were Pinocchio in the ending of our story.
Christmas Fayre preparations! Ffair’r Nadolig!
Mrs Rimmer started the day with Christmas songs in assembly and our very own Christmas Elf (Miss Bunn) has been in to help us make products for the Christmas Fayre! 2 weeks to go…!
Shapiau
Reception have been learning to recognise and name 2D shapes. Here, they used the shapes to create a picture. The pupils talked about their shapes and named the ones they had used.
Music with Mr Burrows
On Thursday Aderyn Du had Mr Burrows from John Beddoes Campus come into class to teach them about some music relating to China. They had a go at creating their own music using the glockenspiels.
Remembrance
Chrome Music Lab
We used our digital skills to create our very own music on the iPads. We were all very good at this and loved exploring on the Chrome Music Lab.
Spaghetti Rollercoaster building
We have been busy designing our rollercoaster and have now started to build a start for our rollercoaster using spaghetti and marshmallows to hold a piece of track ‘ruler’ up. We had a very sticky but fun time and used this practice ready for the big build!
Earthquake simulator
We wanted to establish which shape base was the strongest for skyscrapers. We decided to build models of skyscrapers using LEGO and K’nex and then use LEGO We Do to create an earthquake simulator. We placed the models on the simulator to test how robust they were. Unfortunately the models were either too heavy for the simulator to move or too tall to stand upright on the simulator! We tried it on the table and carpet in the hope that the amount of friction would help, it didn’t. One of our class members thought to attach a LEGO plate as a base for the models to stand on, this didn’t work either!
