On Friday some of the Rainbow Fish wanted to put on a talent show for some of their friends! They were some amazing performances – from jokes, to dances and even some singing! They also had their very own judging panel!
During this week’s Open Afternoon, Year 3 were able to share with their parents what they do during PE with Gordon. They worked on various skills including balance and core strength. It was lovely to share with our parents what their children do in these lessons.
Year 6 enjoyed a visit to the Nottingham Broadway Cinema this week to watch The Lion King movie. They were inspired for their own performance and have brought back lots of ideas!
Year 1 had a lovely afternoon on Wednesday as we invited our parents, carers and family members into class. We enjoyed planting sunflower seeds together and painted observational drawings of beautiful flowers. This all linked into our science topic on growing.
The children and adults had a great time working together. We could see where our children’s artistic talents came from as all of the adults created beautiful pieces of artwork.
Thank you so much to everyone who came and got involved!
Year 6 have been very lucky to have a coach from Trent Bridge come and teach them cricket! They’ve learnt key skills in batting, bowling and fielding, alongside good communication and effective teamwork. Some of them are naturals!
Year 3 and 4 had the opportunity to celebrate Mass at Corpus Christ. It was so special, with all the children praying and singing with such joy. Mr Penna played the guitar so we could sing ‘Burning in my Soul’ with actions. What a joyous occasion.
Recently, we had the Theatre company RISE visit us and made us think more deeply about our role as Stewards of God’s Gifts.
We had a packed day of singing, dancing, and interactive drama, As well as all this, we created our own Rainforest birds and wrote a Class Psalm. What a busy fun day!
Year 5 had a lovely walk to Clifton Village this week. We learnt all about out local history from Mr Bryan and were even lucky enough to walk around St Mary’s church. Year 5 really enjoyed learning about the Clifton family and their influence on the local area.
All week the FS2 children have been applying everything they have learned over the year into the counting collections sessions. They have worked brilliantly in pairs to ‘choose,’ pick a ‘strategy,’ ‘count,’ and then record,’ how many objects they have in a collections. We have seen some grouping, using tens frames, mats, containers etc to find out how many they have. They have also been recording in so many different ways too! Fabulous work from the Rainbow Fish children all week!
As we didn’t manage to get to Forest School today we had a wonderful time creating maps to help us get to our church and then back to school. The children were amazing landmark spotters in our community noticing the two churches, shops, homes of friends and family and many more! We even time for a snack and story back at school before we hunted for ladybirds!.
