Tokyo Olympic Dance Workshop

Year 1 enjoyed the Tokyo Olympic Dance Workshop today where they learnt a dance to some Japanese music which incorporated movements from lots of the different sports we will see at the Summer Olympics. 


Year 1 and 2 Athletics Competition

Year 1 and 2 really impressed everyone in their athletics competition this week. They took part in sprinting, hurdles, throwing, long jump and speed bounce events.  A big well done to everybody! 


Year 1 and 2 Euros Football Tournament

Year 1 and 2 showed great sportsmanship in their football tournament. They showed great teamwork and scored lots of goals. Great Britain and Portugal won winning 3 of their matches, Brazil came a close 2nd winining matches and China and Argentina 3rd winning 1 of their matches. 


Tokyo Olympic Themed Dinner

To fit in with our Sports Week, the children had the chance to have a Japanese inspired Olympic themed dinner. They could have chicken gyozas, yakitori shredded beef with noodles and beansprouts, tempura vegetables or oriental egg fried rice with spring onions and peas. For desert there was a choice of Tokyo banana, purin or peach jelly and fruit. The children all thoroughly enjoyed their dinner and liked trying something new. Thank you for all the kitchen staff for cooking such a great meal.

Money

Year 1 have been impressing both Miss Mainprize and Mrs Hallam with their work on money. We spotted different types of coins and even visited the Year 1 shop. 


Martial Arts

Year 1 have been loving their Martial Arts lessons. They have been learning different punches and kicks and even got the chance to use the pads this week to help perfect their skills. 


Old toys

To start our new topic, we played with lots of different toys from the past to try to work out what they were and how to use them. We noticed that most of them were made of wood but were shocked to find that some are still similar to ones we play with today.
