Aderyn Du, Cnoc Y coed and Jac Y Do were lucky to have a scientist come into school to complete some science lessons, based on magnets, light and sound. She is a training scientist from Montana in the USA, who is currently studying in Boston. We had lots of fun testing if objects were magnetic and drawing shadows.
Children in Year 2 and 3 have a new mantle of the expert commission. Julia Llewellyn Roberts from Knighton Museum has asked the children to become a team of historians. Their commission is to create an exhibition that brings to life the experiences of Knighton’s residents in Victorian times.
To launch our Mantle of the Expert learning, the children set off on a local walk around Knighton, looking closely at different buildings and discovering how they were used in the past. They were fascinated to learn how familiar places have changed over time and enjoyed imagining what the town might have looked like during the Victorian era.
We have had a great start to our forest school sessions, Week 1 we looked at using the Bowsaw and Axe, and this week we challenged ourselves to make a fire with very wet wood!! We succeeded….and enjoyed some delicious S’Mores!
Well done to Maisie for winning the Christmas colouring competition! Gwych!

The children have been busy making some beautiful table arrangements to sell at our Christmas Fayre. Great creative work!
We have been very busy getting ready for our Christmas Fayre. Everyone has been working hard to start making our special crafts. One of the things we have been creating is decorated bottles.
