ROCKET SEEDS - TAKE OFF!

Today we all began our "Rocket Science" project - growing seeds that have been into space.  200 seeds have been sown by the whole school (100 that have been in space and 100 that haven't) and we now wait to see what will happen.  Which seeds will germinate first?  Which seeds will grow more leaves?  Which seeds will be taller plants?  Watch this "space"!!

Serious scooter fun!

Stuart from my school journey has been providing the children in Nightingales and Rooks with scooter training.  The children have learnt how to scoot safely on the roads and are developing a respect for other road users.  Most importantly,  the children have had fun with their learning!

Manor Farm

What a beautiful day we had for our trip on Wednesday. Robins had a wonderful day getting to know victorian farming tools, having a victorian school lesson, getting dirty by doing some victorian chores and meeting all the farm animals. The staff at the farm commented on the good behaviour of all the children which was great!

I hope you enjoyed yourselves.

The children are now starting to write a recount about the trip so keep and eye out for some lovely examples.

Tadpoles have arrived

Today year R had  little surprise, the fish tank that had appeared in thr classroom suddenly came to life.  We have froglets and tadpoles in different stages.  We have enjoyed looking at them today and have asked lots of questions.  We are eager to know more about them. 

Team Zebra: Green going on...

Team Zebra are back at work after the Easter break. The green design is starting to take shape... some very careful brushwork is required now and we're having to scale back and refine some of our original ideas. It's looking very good though!

ROCKET SCIENCE...READY TO LAUNCH!

We are all busy getting ready to receive our "seeds from space" next week, as we take part in the National project - Rocket Science!  Watch this space for updates on how our seeds are growing!

Caterpillars

Afternoon Robins, the caterpillars are doing well and I have now moved them to the net. We have 3 which have spun their cocoons. Unfortunately one of them has died and the other is has yet to spin its cocoon. Hope you are well and enjoying your time off.
