Ein Cartref / Our Home

As part of our community-based art project, we worked with Ciara and Izzy from Old School Arts to create a mural of birds flying over Knighton.  Every learner in the school was involved in the project, from painting the mural to creating their own bird.  This project followed our work from Refugee Week and the theme of ‘Community as a Superpower’ and that together we are strong, creative and make things happen.

This is your life!

Children in Years 2, 3, and 4 were absolutely fantastic in their recent performance of ‘This is your Life’. The performance was about the life and works or author Dr Seuss. As part of their mantle of the expert commission for this term, they had the task of writing and performing three plays based on stories written by Dr Seuss. Year 2 wrote their version of ‘The Cat in the Hat’, year 3 wrote their play about ‘The Lorax’ and year 3 pupils created their version of ‘Horton Hears a Who’. Da iawn Pawb!

VE Day Visitor

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!

Judo!

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.

A massive well done to everyone that took part in the annual Powys Cross-Country. A very challenging course made even harder in the heat, with everyone competing showing great perseverance and support throughout the day. Da iawn pawb!

As part of our Mantle, we have been looking at deforestation. We decided to paint some trees on stones after looking at how important it was to save our trees!
