Reward time KS2

Key Stage 2 children enjoyed reward time for their excellent behaviour in Spring 2 term.  This Monday they have taken part in obstacle races, running races and had some time playing on the wood chip and tyre park. Well done to all those children involved.

Fairthorne Trip

Year 4 had an amazing time at Fairthorne. All children attempted all of the activities, showing courage and determination and most all teamwork.

Thank you from Year 6!

Year 6 would like to say a HUGE thank you to the PTA who provided funds for new wet playtime games. We had a great time trying them out last week. Table football proved to be a favourite!

New member of Year 1

Look who has just decided to come and play!

Welcome to Bitterne Manor!

Egciting news!

I have been checking the eggs a lot over the past few days and when I opened the incubator this morning, you'll never guess what I saw....

A crack in an egg!

 

I was so concerned about the egg, thinking it was broken, I picked it up, and ...

 

IT CHEEPED!

 

I can officially say, the hatching has begun!

 

I will be back in tomorrow with (hopefully) some fluffy, new members for year 1.

Mosaic Renewed!

You may have noticed someone working on the mosaic art at the front of our school. Her name is Rachel Fenner and she is the original artist who designed and created it for us back in 1990. She has agreed to come back and attempt to restore and repair her work and to try to get it back as near as possible to what it was like when  new. It has been really interesting talking to her about the ideas behind her work and its historical context. Next time you're passing look out for the Roman and Celtic designs. Her original ideas and drawings are in the picture below. If you would like to know more about her art and other examples of her work in our area then head over to: http://rachelfenner.co.uk

Eggciting times!

We are all very egg-cited in year 1 at the moment and looking forward to welcoming our new classmates.  For the parents that haven't been dragged in yet, I thought I'd post a few pictures of our little friends.



 The children have been learning all about hatching chicks and how we should look after them.

 The eggs were put into the incubator on the 2nd of April so we are egg-specting the hatching to start on Monday.  (Don't worry about the weekends, they will be coming to stay at my house and if anything does happen I will make sure it is all captured and blogged!)








Fingers crossed that they all arrive safely and quickly, as it's just too egg-citing for us in year 1!
