Knighton Church in Wales Primary School

Throughout the day we thought a lot about keep sakes and how refugee children take these with them when having to leave their homes. We thought about the journeys refugees have to make and how they might feel when they arrive in a new country. By the end of the day we had created a performance to share with our parents during our class assembly.
We thought about the concept of home and how our homes make us feel.
The whole school have worked extremely hard to make Dydd Dathliad Cymraeg a huge success. The children’s attitude to the competitions and ’round robin’ of activities have been exceptional. Excellent performances by all classes delivering a Welsh song. Well done to all of our competition winners and all children for participating in the competitions.
DA IAWN PAWB!!!!
What amazing costumes we have had to celebrate World Book Day! We have been sharing and discussing our favourite books and characters. We have used our creative skills to paint our favourite characters.
In Cnoc-y-coed, we investigated different genres of books and shared our likes and dislikes of books we have read and seen. We then designed our ideal book. We thought about having eye catching front covers and interesting blurbs.
We looked amazing in our Welsh colours and costumes today. We have enjoyed painting daffodils, making Welsh flags digitally on Hwb, and preparing for Dathliad Cymraeg day next week.
Our group won the second round and are through to the next round! Llongyfarchiadau!
The children have been busy investigating soil formation. Here are some pictures of them making their own compost bins.
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!
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.
