Year 4E visit to Curly's Farm

 

                          

 

Today some of the year 4 pupils had their first farm visit!

After meeting the farmer, we were given our list of jobs for the day. First, we had to collect food from the food store and feed the sheep and even some emus! Then we had to clean and refill the water buckets for the sheep and pigs. Our final job for the day was to help herd some sheep into a different pen. With the help of some food, and working together, we managed to get the flock of sheep across 2 pens! 

We can't wait to find out what jobs are in store next time at Curly's farm!

Year 1 - IPC

 Our topic is The Earth Our Home

We have started to think about habitats so we have been to the pond area to do some pond dipping and look at the plants to find living creatures.In class we had some craft activities to make some pond creatures and plants.

Roald Dahl Day Monday 13th Sept

Y6 begun the afternoon by coming up with their very own Miss Trunchball insults. The aim of the task was to say them out loud without laughing… it’s safe to say the entire class erupted with laughter at the interesting phrases the children came up with. 

We ended by looking at the illustrations in Roald Dahl books and used watercolours to draw our own cover for George’s Marvellous Medicine. 

Year 2 - IPC

This term Year 2 are learning about 'What's It Made Of?' in IPC. 

To start this topic, we explored various materials around us and sorted them into types and their properties. We have investigated the best materials for classroom furniture and how materials can change. 

New Reception Welcome!

I cannot believe the first week is over, it went in a blur! We loved meeting our new Reception children face to face - they were delightful. It is our favourite time of the year as we spend time getting to know their personalities and helping them to settle quickly into our school family. 

They have been given the opportunity to explore their whole learning area, get to know one another, and become comfortable with the whole Reception team.

We are extremely proud of how they have settled into the first phase of their school career, here at WRPS!

Jeans For Genes Day Friday 17th September

Donate a £1 and wear jeans, but still wear your top half of your school uniform!  

Our Allotment Revamp!

 

Year 6 Entry Point in IPC

To begin our IPC Topic - Space Scientists - Y6 designed and created their own rockets. They used card to carefully design their rockets and attached them to a balloon ready to blast off in the playground. We released our balloon rockets and observed how far they travelled! Some went quite far!

Welcome Back To A New Term!

I hope you all had a wonderful summer and are now ready to settle back into the new academic year. The children have come back to school today with a renewed energy and readiness for learning, and it has been so lovely to see them all again and to catch up with their summer news.

We are looking forward to welcoming our new Reception children, who will begin school over the coming fortnight with us. I know that all the older children will remember how they felt when they were that tiny and do their utmost to make our newcomers feel welcome and safe.

As always, we are more than happy to help you, should you have any further queries at this stage in the term. Please do use the usual channels of communication to contact us, should you need to.
