3 Chestnut had fun creating our Stone Age bags and weaving.

3 Chestnut
The pupils had such fun at Cononley Primary School.
"I learned that I don’t need to be shy and I can talk to new people."
"It doesn’t matter that we’re different. You can make friends with anyone."
"My new friend helped me to find things so I will help them when they come to our school."

3 Birch loved making Stone Age bags in history lessons. They learned how to sew and weave as part of this unit.

Well done to Reception Cherry, 2 Cherry and 3 Birch for being our 'Attendance Stars' this week.

We learned how the 1666 fire spread, compared it to modern firefighting, and even used our bodies to demonstrate how fire breaks work!

This half term, the children will be listening to music from Disney films. The first week, we will be listening to Heigh Ho from Snow White. Snow White was the first full length animated feature film and it was released in 1937.

This week, One Birch enjoyed using the class set of tablets to design and create a moving car. Some children have also completed the activity on Purple Mash at home.

Year 2 were making clay animals. They remembered to take the air out of clay before making an animal. They really enjoyed this.

3 Birch enjoyed creating their cave art as part of their art and history curricula. They learned how to use charcoal to create shapes and they loved it.

Year 2 had a fantastic afternoon making clay animals. We used a number of skills including pinching, scoring and using tools to add details. Don't they look great!
