Children’s Mental Health Week

We have been busy this week in Emerald Class! As part of Children’s Mental Health Week, the children have been looking at ‘connections’ and how we are all connected in some way. To start the week, we read The Invisible String and created our own pictures of all the people we had strings to, no matter how far away they are. We created a giant puzzle to show how we all fit together in our classroom. Finally, we read Words and Your Heart which focusses on how powerful your words are and how they can impact other people. We then created cards and filled them with different words to describe that person.

🔢Number Day 💯

Today we celebrated Number Day. Johnny Ball (blast from the past) showed us some great number tricks and then Mike Askell shared an amazing investigation with subtracting numbers.

We had great fun continuing the investigation and seeing what happened with negative numbers, different shapes, fractions and square and prime numbers.

Cracking the code followed and deforestation fun…..

We loved number day! ❤️

Holly Holy Day Trip

Did you know that Nantwich played a key role in the English Civil War which lasted from 1642 – 1651 ?

Well Topaz class do ! In readiness for The Battle of Nantwich on Saturday 21st January, we enjoyed a very informative and hands on trip to Nantwich and the Museum. Thank you to all the team there for sharing their knowledge in a fun and interactive way.

🎄Oh no it’s not! 🎄

The whole school had a wonderful visit to The Regent Theatre in Stoke today to watch the pantomime- Peter Pan!

Onyx class were impeccably behaved and we especially loved Mrs H having a secret kiss from Jonny Wilkes and Sammy getting to go up on stage!

It’s beginning to feel a lot like Christmas! 🧑‍🎄🎅
