We are so pleased to report that all the teddy bears (and snakes, dogs, cats etc) were feeling much better after their visit to the doctors from the Teddy Bears’ Hospital.
The children showed excellent communication skills (and confidence) talking to the unfamiliar adults and joining in with activities to help them learn about hospital visits, exercise, dental hygiene, emotions and mental health.
This was a wonderful joint celebration with children from KS1 and EYFS leading their friends through prayer, song, dance, time to think and talk, meeting together with Jesus, getting to know his friendship even more.
In Art we have used inspiration from Marc Chagall and our learning about World War 2 to create our own skylines of the Blitz. We used vibrant watercolours in the background then made the silhouette using oil pastels.
The children in FS have had a fun morning playing in the snow; building snowmen, throwing snowballs, investigating foot and hand prints and ‘having the best time ever!’
We are very proud of all the children who took part in our wonderful show today. They showcased drumfit, poetry, songs, dough disco and were amazing with their confidence, loud voices and musical talent. Thank you to everyone who bought tickets to help us raise money for new musical instruments.
Here’s the Music for Year 3’s Nativity. Practise with the words and the sing-a-long version first, then start singing along to the backing tracks with your words to see if you have the timings right.
Finally, sing without the words to the backing track – then you will be ready and confident to sing in front of an audience!

Year 3 spent some time exploring playscripts and their layout in order to identify key features. What better way to do that then to actually perform one?
Working in groups, they organised themselves into different roles and then used the stage directions to ensure actions and dialogue were accurate.
They were then able to use these features in their own plays, a ‘Revolting Rhymes’ style version of Goldilocks and the Three Bears. Some fantastic playscripts were produced because they worked so well together. Great work Year 3!
The children loved visiting the Greens Windmill on Friday. They were excellent when climbing up and down the steep stairs, growing in confidence with each step! They learned how flour is made and couldn’t wait to have a go on the grinder. They used their super ‘Hulk Smash,’ skills when kneading the dough to make bread roll shapes – they told us they couldn’t wait to try it when they get home! They also explored the science museum where they tested magnets, tested their strength and even found some funny looking mirrors. What a great morning Foundation Stage.
The children were amazing at the Windmill. They had so much energy and confidence climbing up and down four flights of steps! They learned about how the Miller turns the grain into flour for our bread. They kneaded the bread to make different-shaped bread rolls – we hope they shared these with their families! They also had chance to explore all the scientific and mathematical exhibits – look out for some funny photographs of the mirrors!
