Welsh Badges!

Congratulations to our Welsh badge winners this week. You have been using lots of incidental Welsh inside and outside of the classroom. Da iawn pawb!!

Forest School Fun!

We used a Timber Hitch knot and Taut-line Hitch knot to tie the rope to the tree (using instructions to help us!). Some pupils used a knife to make our own tent pegs, and others then built the shelter! Great team-work! Given the weather we needed the shelter and out waterproofs, not that the pupils cared- as demonstrated by their faces at the end of the session!

Cwis Dim Clem

Gweithion ni gyda Lois i wneud y cwis. We worked with Lois, from Mentur Iaith, to do the quiz. The Year 6 pupils competed in groups of 2, 3 or 4. 28 other schools have competed in the quiz, the top 12 teams will go through to the next round…

Ein henillwyr ni! Our winners!

Holocaust Memorial Day

This morning we thought about the Holocaust; what happened, when and to whom. We studied some of the laws imposed upon Jewish people at that time. Pupils noticed that as time went on the laws became more extreme.
Some of the laws that made them feel sad was that ‘Jewish people were not allowed to marry non-Jewish people’ and ‘Jewish children were not allowed to go to school with non-Jewish children’.
One of the laws that made them feel scared was that ‘Jewish people must be home from 8pm in the winter and 9pm in the summer’.

George’s Marvellous Medicine

For the last 2 weeks we have been reading George’s Marvellous Medicine; we have studied the language used and the ideas within it. The pupils are now writing the story in their own words….they could take a while to mark…!

Fire Safety - Diogelwch Tân

Today we were visited by our Fire Education Officer. She explained the importance of smoke detectors in the home, which should be tested weekly. She explained what not to do in our home with the aim of preventing fires from starting. She also explained what to do if there is a fire: Get out, Stay out, Ring 999.
