This week it’s French week and as part of it we are doing lots of learning around the Tour de France 🚴♂️🚵🚴
Your challenge this week is to design and make a poster advertising the Tour de France. Try and use as many different Art skills and media as you can.
There are prizes for the most unique and ‘different’ pieces that grab the audience’s attention….. 🏆🏆🏆
Good luck everyone! 🤩
I’ve had a great weekend climbing with Mum and Dad at The Roaches. I love smelling the fresh air and talking to all the other people walking by!
Whilst I was enjoying myself, I couldn’t help but wander what all my friends at Sound have been doing this weekend….
I’d love it if you could chat to me about your weekend when we meet this week, or, if you can’t wait that long, why don’t you draw me a picture or write me a note and post it in my letter box? I can’t wait to hear all about you!
Lots of love,
Padme 🐾
Would you know what to do if someone was drowning? Onyx Class would! 💦
As part of Drowning Prevention Week, we discussed what dangers there could be around different water courses. We know that in Nantwich we have canals, rivers, ponds, lakes and reservoirs that are all areas that ourselves and others could get into difficulties, especially in the hot weather. 🥵
We then went outside and learnt how to rescue someone! Despite having no water in sight, we shouted for help, found something to help our victims float or to reach with, encouraged our swimmer to kick their legs, kept them talking and made them feel safe when they made it to land! 💪
Maybe one day one of us will save someone’s life with this knowledge? 🤞
Well done Onyx! 🤩
Ruby Class had lots of fun playing time board games on Thursday! We are doing brilliantly with learning to tell the time. We have looked at o ‘clock, half past, quarter past and quarter to! 😊
Challenge: Find a clock around the house! Can you tell the time it shows? 🕰⏰ Remember what we have learned about the minute hand! ⭐️
We had SO much fun at Forest School this week!! We built mountains, rivers and seas using nature! We demonstrated amazing team work!! 😀😀
This week the children have been celebrating ‘Drowning Prevention Week’ which commenced on 12th June. The campaign, which is run by Royal Life Saving Society (RLSS) and is supported by a wide range of organisations including the RNLI, RoSPA and the emergency services.
The children have been learning to spot signs of danger at the beach and then played a fun game which helped them remember what each of the beach flags mean!
To learn more follow the link below!
In Diamond Class we have tied in drowning prevention week with our pirate day! We have learnt how to keep ourselves safe near water, especially the sea! The children already knew lots of useful facts which was great!
What a brilliant pirate day we had! We participated in lots of pirate challenges and had lots of fun too! We loved going on a treasure hunt using orienteering skills! It was great to find the treasure!
See some of our wonderful learning today! 🏝⛵️⚓️🏴☠️
Yesterday at forest school, Opal class were learning about the tropical rainforests.
We looked at where tropical rain forests are located and compared the conditions in our forest school to the conditions in a tropical rain forest.
We can’t wait to see what we are doing next week!
This week our wonderful Year 5&6 pupils took part in virtual Primary College!
It is an annual event run by South Cheshire College where we get to take part in a range of interactive activities, developed by their expert tutors and employer partners, to find out more about different careers.
After a democratic vote, Onyx class decided they wanted to have a go at the activities below:
Altimex- they learnt all about robotics and automation. They even designed their own robots!
Engineering- they learnt about state-of-the-art engineering equipment and used their problem solving skills to build free-standing, paper towers.
Hairdressing- they created a festive look using braiding and plaits!
Visual Arts- they learnt to draw fun portraits with Art lecturer Iain!
Even though we were disappointed that we couldn’t do these at the college, we had such a fabulous time in school and learnt sooo much! Thank you Primary college for all your hard work setting this up! 🤩
