We had great fun completing VE Day Lego Challenge cards. We chose who we worked with and which challenge we wanted to complete. We made celebration cakes, peace gardens, spitfires, Union Jack flags and old-fashioned radios. We have shown that we have great construction skills!
We had a fabulous VE Day celebration lunch accompanied by Knighton Town Silver Band. Thank you to our wonderful kitchen staff and Knighton band members!
Today we were excited and honoured to be joined in school by ninety-nine year old War veteran Christopher Price. He answered questions asked of him by Years Two, Three and Six. Pupils learned of his experiences in the Second World War as he gave us a valuable insight as to what life was like. Diolch Christopher!
We have been developing our vocabulary about the ‘weather’ in our Welsh language sessions. We have enjoyed learning lots of new songs and following instructions playing parachute games.
Jasmine from Team Wales came into school to do some Judo with KS2. We talked about her career and the competitions she has taken part in and then we had a go at Judo ourselves. We had great fun and enjoyed learning new Judo moves.
In RVE, we created a photo gallery showing things that we found interesting and beautiful. We zoomed in on some of the items so that we can see them in more detail.
We had the pleasure of having a Judo taster session from Team Wales. The children had a great time and enjoyed learning some Judo skills.
Today we were visited by Judo Team Wales. We had a short assembly with Jasmine then some of us had a short session. Pupils learned some rolls, holds and were shown how to throw…one lucky pupil was used to demonstrate! There were smiles all round… hwyl a sbri!
We have been learning about the relationship between multiplication and division. We used a range of resources to help us solve some work problems.
We have been back outside completing some Forest School sessions. This time it was about following the lead of the learners and seeing what they remembered from last time. Everyone remembered the Forest School rules, and the rules around using tools (a knife this time) were also remembered and demonstrated. Den building was a big hit, they used the pegs created by the knives to hold down the tarpaulin and looked at how to tie some different knots.
