Discoveries!

The Mantle of the Expert spark for this term is discoveries. The children have discovered a long lost tomb on the side of a mountain in the Valley of the kings.  The discovery is reported to the British Museum who dispatch a team of archaeologists to investigate the discovery, open the tomb and catalogue what’s inside. The children will now take on the role of the archaeologists to find out about Ancient Egypt and the treasures discovered. Here are some of the things that they would like to find out about this term in order to help them achieve this…

Frindiau'r Byd

In groups, we have been thinking about creation stories from different religions and what they might teach us. We thought of things that are important to our planet and we diamond ranked them. We then looked at the idea of stewardship and the responsibility that we all have in looking after our world. We also thought of things that we could do to care for our planet.

Dathliad Cymraeg

As part of their round robin of Welsh activities, children worked with Mrs Fielding to learn the song ‘Mi Welais Jac Y Do’, they then used the musical instruments to create a composition to accompany the song.

Forest School

Great work by all the year 3 children that attended our Forest School session today. It was a challenge finding dry fuel for our fire, but the children were an absolute credit and worked well as a team to ensure we had a healthy treat at the end of the session. Da iawn!

Fire Engine

Thank you to Knighton Fire Brigade who kindly brought their fire engine to the school. The children had a fabulous time exploring the equipment.
