Today we played leaf snap. We collected leaves and then used our observation skills to shout snap when we saw similarities.
Outdoor Learning
Cardiff trip _ Trip Caerdydd
Aethon ni i Gaerdydd. Aethon ni i Big Pit, St. Fagan’s, ar y speedboat, i’r Senedd, bowlio-deg, Techniquest ac Aberfan Memorial Garden.
We learned about the history of Wales. Some of us stayed away from home for the first time. We had to organise ourselves and our belongings. We had to share a room with other people. We persevered even when something was tough or tiring. Some of us had to be brave.
Caswon ni lawer o hwyl. We had lots of fun and the behaviour of our pupils was excellent!
A huge ‘thank you’ goes to each of the following for their generous donations: the Blakemore Foundation for their contribution towards our visit to Techniquest, to the Senedd for a grant towards our travel costs and to our Friends of School committee who enabled us to enjoy the speedboat! Diolch yn fawr iawn!
Our Solar System\Ein Cysawd yr Haul
We are so pleased with our paper mache solar system. We have used so many skills from across the curriculum to make them!
Our finished Sola System
Look at our AMAZING Solar System!! We have all worked extremely hard to make this fantastic Solar System. Great team work by all of the children!
Resolving Conflict
In our PSHE Jigsaw session we have been looking at resolving conflicts. In groups we identified reasons for conflict and we used positive problem solving techniques to resolve them.
Enillwyr Tocynnau Cymraeg
Congratulations to our Welsh badge winners this week. You have been using lots of incidental Welsh inside and outside of the classroom. Da iawn pawb!!
Spring play
Here are a few snaps from our Spring play, which our pupils wrote. It was based on George’s Marvellous Medicine with a hint of Matilda. The pupils created their own checklist of everything that needed to be completed in order to answer the question ‘What will it take to be ready for a theatrical performance?’
We think they were definitely ready, we hope you did too…!
Jigsaw
We have been discussing our emotions and relating it to different colours.
Today, we made a colour rainbow and talked about things we can do to help us when we are feeling sad, anxious and angry.
Great teamwork!
Forest School
This term it is Aderyn du’s turn to develop various skills during Forest School sessions. They were much luckier with the weather…!
School Values
Work with Jody, from Stoneglass Windows, has started on our school mosaic, which has been funded by a grant from the Church Mission Fund. Each class created a design based on our school values, and Jody has collated them into one whole-school design. Our value was compassion.
