We are so proud of the children’s independent reading in Topaz class. It is a pleasure catching up with their favourite reads every week and see them submerse themselves in a good book to rewind after lunch.
These children have achieved fantastic results becoming double millionaires, millionaires and half millionaires word count readers !! Well done !!
Today the children enjoyed their cricket session with Cheshire Cricket. We learnt how to play a new game – 5 lives- and I was really impressed by everyone’s batting and sportsmanship.
Emerald Class have been learning all about money today! The children learnt to recognise the different coins we use and the symbols for pounds (£) and pence (p). We began to discuss how to can combine different coins to make amounts.
Challenge: Can you play shops that home? Decide what to sell – raid the kitchen cupboard, toy box or wardrobe to create a shop. Price up the items with sticky notes and take turns to be the shopper and shopkeeper! 💰🛒🛍
Topaz had a brilliant session this afternoon with Nantwich Rugby 🏉 Club learning about dodging, tackling, tries and throwing. Throwing backwards was the hardest thing to grasp but they had great fun trying.

On Friday, Emerald Class celebrated French Week! 🤩 The children listened to French music, learnt the colours of the rainbow in French 🌈 and learnt about the Tour de France! 🚵🏻
This morning Emerald Class consolidated their learning of recalling one more and one less of a number. The children had to work in pairs to roll a dice twice, make a two digit number and record one more and one less. We loved being competitive and showing off our wonderful Maths skills!
As part of National Writing Day, Topaz class read the poem “I Come From” by Robert Seatter. The children then had 5 minutes to brainstorm everything about their own lives; family, friends, homes, gardens, hobbies, activities, holidays etc..
We then used the layout of Seatter’s poem to create our own poems. We are sure you’d like to read them too.
