Throughout the week clas-ses have been visiting Paignton Zoo. First, we took a look at the Flamingos and Pygmy Marmosets. Next, we divided into groups at the Education Centre and set off to see all kinds of magnificent creatures. After we had our lunch, we met a member of staff who taught us about adaptation and Evolution. After about an-other hour of looking and researching animals, we said goodbye to all the love-ly creatures of Paignton Zoo and left on the coach. by Toby and Georgina, Class 6
On Tuesday, Class 3 & 4 went to Paignton Zoo. We saw an elephant and it was huge! We went to see the fierce lions and we learnt that the reason a male lion has a mane is to protect his face when he is fighting. The camels we saw had come from South Asia and the camels’ lumps has lots and lots of fat in them because their natural habitat is in hot deserts. My favourite bit was when the monkeys catapulted on to the window! by Tabitha, Year 4 My group ran up the hill to see the crocodile swamp. It was so hot in there, even Miss Brown’s glasses steamed up and she couldn't see! We went to see the giant tortoises and learnt that the oldest tortoise was 152 years old!! Class 4 took part in a workshop and learnt about some animals that don’t have bones. If we didn't have bones, we would be big blob! My fa-vourite part of the day was watching the giraffes eating their food. by Betsy, Class 4
We Care. We Aspire. We Belong
OUTSTANDING LEARNERS OF THE WEEK
Class R Harry S, Daniel and Niamh for entertaining the class with their puppet show.
Class 1 Elliott for giving 100% to everything he does; for always making the right choices at school and for showing such care and kindness to his classmates.
Class 2 Henry for his hard work this week, especially with his handwriting and Maths work counting in 3s.
Class 3 Charlie for his amazing scientific knowledge during our zoo visit workshop on skeletons and movement.
Class 4 William for an improved attitude towards his learning across the curriculum and sharing his ideas with his group. Well done and keep this up!
Class 5 The whole of Class 5 for excellent behaviour on their visit to the zoo. Jonah and Nicholas for their great responses during our workshop on Evolution.
Class 6 Rosie for her interesting and exciting story writing this week.
This week Class 3 had Forest School. In partners, we chose a tree to adopt and watch over for the year. We made medallions for our adopted tree. We made them by using big drills to drill holes in a round piece of wood and then we had to choose some wool to weave through the holes to make a pattern. We then hung our medallions on our adopt-ed tree. Lastly, we made sketches of our trees and then drank hot chocolate! It was a great morning! by Isabel and Adri, Class 3
