Summer 2, Week 1
The children thoroughly enjoyed their class trip to Knebworth House on Tuesday. It was a lot of fun but also provided an opportunity for them to discover how plants grow in the context of a beautiful, established, working garden. They took part in a plants workshop and explored the formal and walled kitchen gardens, before enjoying a visit to the dinosaur trail and the adventure playground. Thank you Ms Coutinho, Mrs Sheahan and Miss Lawlor for support the class.
In Maths, the children have been exploring lines of symmetry. They’ve enjoyed using mirrors to find symmetrical and asymmetrical shapes.
The class have also been busy preparing for Sports Day next week and have enjoyed running the daily mile together at lunch time.
Our new History Topic is The Great Fire of London. This week, we have investigated where, how and why it started.
In RE we have learnt about different types of prayer. This helped us prepare for the Blessed Sacrament on Friday.
Have a restful weekend
