Signs of Symmetry

Topaz class enjoyed their Maths today outside in the long awaited sunshine. We spent time exploring symmetry in nature and then played a team relay race identifying symmetry in shapes.

🪴🪴Gardeners World comes to Sound🪴🪴

As part of Team Day, Onyx Class had more extreme fun gardening! In their teams, they all had a specific spot to work on and look after including: planting a new flower bed; filling and planting wellies; planting a new hanging basket; raking and seeding the old vegetable patch; planting wild flowers and filling and planting 4 new containers.

Every single person showed outstanding determination, hard work and worked as a superb team player. 👏 Mrs Coleman and I were so proud of each team and were wowed by the improvements made from the day before! ❤️

Have a look at our finished areas- haven’t they done an amazing job?! 👍

👩🏼‍🍳 Goodbye Mrs Gould! 🥰

Emerald Class loved coming together with the rest of the school to bid a fond farewell to Mrs Gould today. We celebrated with a picnic lunch where she was given cards, flowers and lots of beautiful gifts. We are very sad to say goodbye and will miss her wonderful cooking but wish her the best of luck in her retirement! 👩🏼‍🍳🤍

Thank you Mrs Gould x

I am so proud of Ruby Class! ⭐️❤️ The perfect end to a super topic!

Sounds of Science at Sound

Topaz class had loads of fun this afternoon making and using string telephones. The sounds of ‘Testing, testing, 1,2,3’ and ‘Can you hear me?’ filled the air! Giggles all round, while learning lots about how sound travels.

Finally, the sun came out and Onyx Class got stuck into reviving and rejuvenating the entrance area to school.

Each team worked really hard trimming, chopping, digging, scraping, weeding and brushing. We even painted the fence and found a Chafer grub! Everyone showed superb resilience and great team work. We can’t wait for a spot of planting tomorrow! 🌱🌱🌱🌱

🌻Gardening Week- Day 2 🦆

Hip hip hooray, the sun came out to play! ☀️ What a difference a day makes.

Ruby class had lots of fun in the sun this afternoon. We made tasty bird feeders for the local birds to enjoy, we had great fun exploring nature in our wildlife area and we enjoyed pulling out some giant weeds!

We hope the birds enjoy the tasty treats we left them! 🦅

Final Tidy Up !!

Topaz class were determined to finish tidying up the front of school today. With great enthusiasm and hard work, they armed themselves with spades, forks, gloves, buckets and got stuck in. I think you’ll agree they’ve done a FANTASTIC job !!
