Healthy schools council planned a fruit café, to encourage learners to try some new fruits. We prepared the fruit and invited Reception and year 1 to come at break time. Criw Cymraeg helped us with using our Welsh language to ask for the fruit. We can’t wait for the next fruit cafe!
As we are learning about light, we went outside to explore our shadows. We discussed where the light came from, where our shadows were, and what happened to our shadows when we moved.
This morning we enjoyed a dance workshop with Emily. We practised our best dance moves , balancing and spins while keeping fit and healthy.
This afternoon, we helped Dibble the Dragon with his fire trails. We explored flame movements, fire pathways and dragon commands!
After reading the story ‘Zog,’ we enjoyed a variety of different Zog related activities. One of which was Madam Dragon’s School for Dragons. Here we learned to breath fire, roar, fly, rescue and capture. All the dragons earned their gold stars! Arbennig pawb!
For Internet Safety Day, Year 3 explored how to use technology responsibly, with a particular focus on understanding what is appropriate and inappropriate to use AI for. The children took part in thoughtful discussions about staying safe online, making sensible choices, and recognising when to ask an adult for help.
We also watched a BBC Live Lesson, which helped the children learn more about how AI works and how it can be used safely. Afterwards, the class began thinking about how they might design their own simple chatbot, considering what helpful and safe responses it should give.
Today, E-Safety Council led an assembly for the whole school. Pupils shared information about AI and how we can use it safely. Gwych pawb!
We were delighted to welcome Archdeacon Alan from the Brecon & Swansea Diocese to our school this week. During his visit, Archdeacon Alan spent time meeting members of staff and our Worship Council, and he was incredibly impressed by their enthusiasm and dedication. His encouragement and affirmation were truly uplifting for everyone involved.
Today, we were shocked to find dragon footprints in the corridor. We thought the dragons may need nests so they could lay their eggs. We did a fantastic job with our friends, building soft nests for the dragon eggs. Arbennig!
We looked at holy books and we thought of words to describe them. We also thought about questions that we would like to find out about these sacred texts. We talked about how the Bible is structured and why it is a best seller.
