This week we have been outside using the ‘Playful Play’ equipment. We developed our creative skills and our problem solving skills. 
Foundation Phase Disco!
Many thanks to the Friends of the School for organising a fabulous end of half term disco for us. A lovely time was had by all!
Pupil Voice
As part of our topic on ‘Fantasy and Fairy tales’, we were pleased that Jack (Jack and the Beanstalk) visited us last week to inspire us with our ‘Mantle of the Expert’ planning for the next half term.
He needs our help as he is fed up of living so close to the giant and he want to move house to a nicer area. We have suggested that he and his mother move to Knighton. Over the next few weeks we will be finding out information about the local area and reporting back to him.
Foundation Phase Party!
Children in the Foundation Phase all enjoyed a fabulous party which they had organised on Friday 25th October. The children had been working very hard planning the party entertainment, fancy dress theme, and the advertising of the party. I’m sure you’ll agree that they did a fantastic job and looked amazing in their costumes. Well done!
Welcome to the Specialist Centre

Sowing Seeds
Today we walked to Ffrydd Road in Knighton and helped the community by scattering seeds on the bank. Hopefully, we will see some beautiful flowers growing there in the warmer weather.
More of 'Stem Kitchen'!
Stem Kitchen in Y5 and Y6
On Wednesday 9th October we enjoyed our ‘Stem Science’ day as a school. In Year 5 and Year 6 we carried out some investigations from ‘Stem Kitchen’- they were great fun! Our focus was ‘Materials and their Properties’.
Physical Literacy
Hwyaid Bach have been using their physical skills even more today.
We started by doing a few stretches to warm-up our bodies. Then we used coloured scarves and moved our bodies to music; ‘Busy Feet’.
We acted like a variety of animals.
Science STEM Morning
The children thoroughly enjoyed looking at ‘Seasonal Change’. We focused on rainfall and decided to make ‘Rain gauges’. we place two in the Quad area and two in the car park.
The children have had a fantastic time over the last three days monitoring the rainfall. With today’s rainfall, we had to measure the water using two measuring jugs as it was too much to fit into one.
