Yesterday we had a very special visit from Florence Nightingale who was kind enough to tell us all about her life. We have been learning about the work that Florence did as part of our topic ‘Jobs People Do’. We looked at some of the things she had and we also got to pretend we were in the hospital, girls as nurses and boys as soldiers! It was a great experience!

Here are some photos from the visit…

We had lot’s of fun in Maths yesterday after finding some rather unusual bottles in our classroom. We used things like Dragon’s Blood and Fish Slime to follow a recipe to create Invisibility and Fairy Dust Potions! The children had to measure out each amount carefully learning all about capacity as they did this. They also had to work collaboratively in teams and each child had an important role in their group!

todayy year 2 had a very special lesson with the sports leaders. The year 6 children planned for and set up a great variety of activities for the children to do. They taught the children how to improve their throwing, catching, dribbling and skipping skills. The year 2 children had a great time.

Apologies for the delay in posting these photos of the dress up day that we had last week.

The children were even able to role play some of their job choices to see if they would really enjoy doing that job in real life!
