Dear Swifts...

Class of 2020-2021,

I just wanted to say how amazing you all have been this year. Watching you all grow has been wonderful to see and you have come on leaps and bounds. With the tough year that we have had with all the challenges posed, you should be incredibly proud of all that you have achieved! I am beyond proud of you all and it breaks my heart not being able to say goodbye to you. 

Thank you for helping me be the best teacher that I can be and showing me that Bitterne Manor Primary School really does have the most kind hearted children ever! Mrs Mayo, Mrs Rathore and I will always be here for you! You're in great hands with Mrs Norris and Mrs Stubley.

You'll always hold a special place in our hearts. Once a Swift, always a Swift 💜💛💗 

Lots of Love

Miss Sangha

P.S. Have the BEST Summer ever, I can't wait to see you all beaming when you come back in September!

Here's a little something to make you all smile, some highlights of mine...

Swifts SOARED through the...

 obstacle course on Friday! It's been a very busy week for the Swift class and team, we've been to Marwell, had Sports day and finished the week with an obstacle course! I think it's fair to say that we all deserved a chilled weekend 😊

A MASSIVE thank you to the PTA for organising this event, you superstars ⭐

ZOO-MAZING!

 The Swifts got the pleasure of going to Marwell Zoo earlier this week.  My goodness did they have fun! This trip tied in perfectly with our Africa topic and children were able to learn lots of interesting facts about animals and their habitats. It was absolutely awesome!

A MASSIVE thank you to the Swift team, Mr Adams and Mrs Meddings for driving us all there!

Taste the RAINBOW!

The Swift class have been carrying out lots of cool experiments over this half term to help develop their scientific skills. 

Last week we started the 'Skittles' experiment! Children were posed with the question of... 'What do you think will happen if warm water was poured over a ring of skittles...' The Swifts had great discussions and made plausible predictions. This week, they carried out their experiment to see whether their predictions were correct. It was very fun! 

Have a little look below at what we found out...

WARNING: Only a few skittles were eaten before the experiment to test the sweetness of them (By the teachers of course!) 😊

Really cool right? The Swifts LOVED it! 

We are going to try a different experiment next week so will definitely keep you posted on how that goes.

If you are a 'Skittle' fan, give this a go. Just re-arrange the Skittles into a pattern on a plate, pour warm water over them / in the middle of the plate and watch what happens... it's magic!
