Today, we were all smiles for Christmas Jumper Day!
Christmas Jumper Day/Diwrnodd Nadolig Siwmper
Human Rights Day
For Human Rights Day, Aderyn Du looked at a picture and discussed what Human Rights we could see. We then looked at the rights of a child and used diamond ranking to discuss what we thought was more important and least important. The children had a lot of discussion and all shared their thoughts and ideas about the different articles.
Black History Month
We have written biographies to celebrate Black History month.
Measuring Brynny
We measured Brynny in November to to see if the space would be suitable for us to build our rollercoaster on. We used trundle wheels to measure the area and perimeter.
Amser Panto!
We had a fabulous time watching Sleeping Beauty last week in the Courtyard in Hereford. Thank you to our Friends of School for our snack packs.
Ffair Nadolig
Well done for all of the children for working so hard on their table centrepieces and their Christmas Eve plates. Thank you to the following members of staff/volunteers that made these production lines possible…. Sally Humphries, Kath George, Sarah Lloyd, Jade Durban, Carole Stokes, Nick Tranter, Helen Lloyd, Sue Hayward and Simon License. Finally, thank you to our fantastic parents and members of community that have purchased our goods and supported us.
Making our rollercoasters
This week we have been busy making our rollercoasters. Its was really tricky to build and make the curves and the loops, but we persevered and Knighton Town Council were really pleased with our prototypes.
Diwrnod Siwmper Nadolig!
Da iawn Pawb! You all look fantastic in your Christmas jumpers raising money for the Welsh Air Ambulance!
Human rights
We’ve been very busy learning all about the human rights! To help us, we created a human rights rap and made some human rights mini displays.
Human Rights Day - Article 2
Article 2 – All children have these rights, no matter who they are or what they look like.
We listened to the story ‘It’s ok to be different’, and discussed why it is ok to be different. Here are some of the children’s contributions;
“We have different colour skin and that is ok.”
“You might want to speak in a different language.”
“It doesn’t matter where you live. You can live in different places and still be friends.”
“My mummy has curly hair and I don’t, and that is ok.”
“Teasing is not kind, because children will feel sad if you tease them.”
“My mummy is different to me because she has dark hair and I have light hair.”
After our discussion, we played a game of ‘switch places if you ……’ where the children swapped places with another child if they answered yes to the question/statement.
