Anti-bullying assembly

Gary and Simon from Holy Trinity visited our school and spoke about how bullying wasn't the right thing to do. They spoke about Jesus and how he would do the right thing. We shared an important message:

Do to others as you would have them do to you!

 


Mathematics in a workplace

This week we are celebrating Mathematics Week England 2022. Year 2 were very lucky to have a parent visitor to talk and share how mathematics is used in his workplace and express the importance of Mathematics being a fundamental part of life. Thank you very much to X Dad for your time and support, the children loved it!

Flag making

Today in forest school the children have been playing the sparrow hawk game, making bows and arrows and using clay. They also used the hapazome technique to colour cloth with leaves and berries to make their own flags.


Ashton Mosque visit

Today, Year 1 and Year 2 visited Ashton Mosque as part of our RE topic (Year 2) ‘Who are Muslims and what do they believe? The children learnt all about the Islamic faith and took part in activities including greeting in Arabic, removing their shoes when entering the Mosque, trying on head scarfs and designing a prayer mat. The children were already very knowledgeable about Islam. The children also got to see Mosques from around the world and see / learn about what happens in a Mosque. Thank you to our parent helpers who supported us on our visit!
