  • Michael Rosen day in Hedgehogs

    Published 21/11/24

    What a wonderful afternoon we had in Hedgehogs class, celebrating Michael Rosen day. We went on a Hedgehog hunt, inspired by the Michael Story "we're going on a bear hunt"  We then wrote our own "We're going on a hedgehog hunt" story- including some amazing adjectives! 

     

    We ended our afternoon by watching a video the man himself perform one of his most loved poems, "Chocolate Cake" We all loved his performance, it was hilarious! After that, there was only one way to end Michael Rosen day . . .  we all had a big slice of chocolate cake! (being careful not to leave any chocolate smudges on our face!)

  • Mayan Ball Game Fun

    Published 21/11/24

    In Year 4, we have been learning about an Ancient Mayan ball game called 'Pitz' where you may only use your elbows, hips and knees to bounce the ball into your opponent's territory. We wore tribal headgear to show which city-state we were playing for and luckily, we didn't have to sacrifice any of the losing team to keep the gods happy!

  • Stephens Shield Cross Country

    Published 05/11/24

    Last Friday, some children from Years 3,4,5 and 6 competed in the Stephens Shield cross country event at Torrington Rugby Club. We had some amazing running from all with several top 10 finishers. They should be extremely proud of the way they conducted themselves in the race and when cheering on their friends. Thank you to the staff (Mr Philps, Mrs Dunn, Mrs Goodban and Mrs Scott) who made the event possible. Thanks as well to the parents who came and supported, we really appreciate it and the children always give it that little bit extra when they see a friendly face in the crowd! Well done all!
