We are nearly at the end of the academic year! Thank you to everyone who came to see our African animal models after school on Tuesday. I was so impressed with the children's creativity and they all seemed to enjoy the homework project.
We have had a fun week of learning! In maths we recapped 2D and 3D shapes. The children enjoyed going on a shape hunt around the school grounds to see which objects are made from which shapes.
In art we created our own version of Vincent Van Gogh's sunflowers and enjoyed colouring them in with oil pastels.
Thank you to any of you who have given end of year gifts. These are never expected and are always appreciated so thank you again.
It has been a joy to teach every single child in Pear Tree Class and I am looking forward to being their teacher for the final few days of the academic year.
Enjoy the weekend and if I don't see you on Monday or Tuesday, have a wonderful summer.

Another week has gone by so quickly.
In English, the children wrote posters about Africa to recap everything that they have learnt over this half term.
In maths we recapped our understanding of time and remembered how to read the time when the clock is showing o'clock and half past the hour.
We learnt about food chains and how energy is transferred from plants to herbivores and then on to carnivores. The children enjoyed drawing their own food chains.
We had a very sporty Wednesday afternoon on the bottom field and the children took part in a KS1 football festival with three other schools. The children represented our school so well and showed good resilience.
The KS1 disco will take place straight after school on Monday 15th July. The cost to attend is £3.50 (to be paid through ParentPay) and your child can wear their party clothes to school on this day.
You will have the opportunity to see all the children's African models straight after school on Tuesday 16th July.
Enjoy the weekend and see you again on Monday!

The highlight of our week was definitely the trip to The Yorkshire Wildlife Park on Wednesday!
We had a wonderful day and saw many different African animals including lions, zebras, giraffes and even a baby rhino! The children all behaved so well and should be proud of how well they represented the school.
In maths we have spent time recapping fractions and the children have worked practically to find a half and a quarter of different quantities.
In DT we continued learning about where different fruits come from in preparation for making our own fruit salads next week.
Enjoy the weekend and I will see you again on Monday,
Miss Atkinson
