A super well done to these children!
Songs from popular musicals have been the background music to our early morning work and it was exciting to see how animated all the children were when they recognised a track from Oliver! Hopefully, I shall get a chance to speak with all the Y5s about the launch and auditions for our Y3-5 production before the end of term. (Performance dates will be in the week commencing 18 March 2024)
We have also been able to watch the EYFS and KS1 Nativity shows, which have been fantastic!
Fractions and Dickens continue to form the basis of Maths and English in Upper Key Stage 2 at the moment, along with a sprinkling of Christmas essence. This week, Oak Tree Class were able to participate in a national science lesson, combined with artwork. I am hoping your child has told you a bit about this fun Christmas decoration activity, but it has also been posted on the brand new Rufford Park and Nursery page on Facebook.
The best day of the week for the children was Wednesday, when we spent the day designing and building marble runs – at last, the tubes have been fully utilised!
Practices are happening for the Very Victorian Christmas (on next Tuesday) so I hope you will be able to come along and hear all about the fascinating work we have done so far in Year 5, and hear the array of Christmas songs we have been learning too!
Hope to see you then,
Yours,
Mrs Adrienne Amos
