Practising our presentations

Here we are practising our presentations.

Writing our dragons' den presentation

We have to decide what to include in our presentation. We've watched some presentations, including Levi Roots'.

Swimming Lessons!

NEWS: We will start swimming lessons ON THE FIRST DAY BACK! 

On Monday 5th January 2015 we will start our swimming lessons. We will take the register in the morning and then head straight to the coach to take us to the pool, and be in the pool by 9.30am. The lessons last an hour. We should be back at school by 11am.

You'll need to bring a swimming costume and a towel. If you already own goggles or a swimming cap you are welcome to bring those with you, too. 

What a lovely, healthy start to the new year! 

The lessons will last for the whole of the Spring Term.

Because of the swimming lesson, you won't also have a PE lesson on Monday, but you'll still have one on Thursday.

Market research

We went to other classes in the school to ask the children which of our enterprise trooper ideas was their favourite.

The official opening of our library

We were very lucky to have the author Mark Dorey in today to do some creative writing and storytelling with the children. He also officially opened our library! 

Planning our Christmas art

Here are the children planning their Christmas designs.

Jamie's coaster

When Jamie was in Year 3, he, along with all of the other Year 3 children, had to draw a Christmassy picture. All of the pictures were then sent to a company which turned each picture into a coaster, and then parents bought them from the school.

Next week, we will be drawing a picture to turn into a coaster, and your parents and relatives can buy them. But the company can also print the pictures on mousemats, bags, all sorts of things.

I'll tell you more about it next week!
