Dear Parent/carer, Thank you to all of you who provided your support for the Beacon Lighting ceremony in St. Margaret’s Church. We have had many lovely comments sent to the school by people within the community by how impressed they were with the children. We couldn’t have done it without your help in getting them there, so thank you again. Please also pass on our thanks to the many grandparents who attended the “Don’t Dance Alone” event. It was a wonderful afternoon and the photos of the entire day, including Children in need can be found on the school website. Mrs. M. Teague

Nursery – Mrs. Dawn Jones
We have listened to the Christmas story and have
started practicing for our Christmas Nativity Show. All
parts have been given out and I will be sorting the
costumes this week. The show will be on Wednesday
12th December and tickets will be on sale shortly.
We are continuing to look at our 5 senses. Together
we made a class graph showing the colour of our
eyes. The children enjoyed the activity and we found
out that most children in our class have blue eyes.
We will be starting our Christmas activities next week
and we have lots of exciting tasks planned.
Class 1 – Mrs. Catherine Thomas
We have been busy reading our sounds, words and sentences in
Reception. We have been working with a partner during our Read,
Write, Inc sessions to generate words that rhyme with cat.
We have been finding out about coins and in Reception we have been
making coin rubbings and sorting coins. In Year 1 we have been using
the website 'Topmarks' to sort, order and add coins together. During
Children In Need day we created Pudsey Bear using coins.
We have been learning about our sense of smell and we have
undertaken a sniff experiment to guess the smell.
We have been learning about Diwalli and we made Diva Lamps with
repeating mosaic tiles. We also created our own Rangoli patterns using
chalk outside and we also created our own Mendhi designs for our
hands.
We all had a thoroughly enjoyable afternoon last Friday during our
'Don't Dance Alone' event showing off our dance moves in the hall!
Class 3 – Mr. Darren Richards
The children in class 3 have been really
hard at work since coming back after half
term. Our practise for the Christmas
performance is in full swing and the
children have made a fantastic effort to
learn their lines already. Well done! Over
the last week or so we have had a big
focus on doing maths activities through
topic work which the children have really
enjoyed. Da iawn Class 3!
Class 2 – Mrs. Donna Davies
What a busy fortnight! Well done to everyone in Class 2 for
‘beating their score’ in the 200 McNally Spelling test.
We have been using HWB to write a ‘best copy’ of our
‘Harvest’ and ‘Poppy’ poems, so log-on and have a read!
In Maths, we have continued with our weekly table’s tests,
worked with 2D and 3D shapes to create mosaics &
models. Year 2’s have worked on half & quarter turns,
clockwise & anti-clockwise. They have created tally charts,
bar graphs & pie charts. Year 3’s have worked out the
‘perimeter’ of different shaped trenches, as well as
measuring litres and millilitres, weighing in grams to the
nearest 5g, 10g or 100g. We have all enjoyed drawing and
labelling War Soldiers and learning about trenches.
Thank you for your continued support.
Class 4 – Mrs. Gaynor Johnson
Well we come to the end of another busy session in school.
Thank you to all who attended St Margaret's church to
remember the WW1 soldiers and also the Next Steps
meetings. I hope you found the evening informative and
helpful. The children have been using a lot of numeracy
skills and IT skills in their topic work over the past week.
They have been multiplying decimals by 10 and 100, finding
the area and perimeter of rectangles, using co-ordinates
and six figure grid references to specify location and
reading and interpreting scale distances. In English they
have continued their stories and have annotated and
started using the success criteria for a dilemma. Keep
practicing tables please as the children need a thorough
knowledge to help confidence. Thank you! 😊
