Frozen!

23rd October 2025N Sikka

Today we launched our new theme in LMTW ‘Come Fly with me Arctic
Circle’. We started by discussing that frozen water was ice. The children found out that the Arctic was mainly made of ice and snow and that it is very cold there. We discussed that global warming is affecting the Arctic more and more each day due to climate change. As a class we decided to have an ice challenge to see who could hold the ice for the longest periods without it melting and used classroom objects to prevent it from melting too quickly. This was extremely fun but quite challenging. The children came up with some amazing vocabulary to describe how the ice felt.

Making a witch’s brew

16th October 2025Ashley Clark

In Year 1, we have been looking at instructions and how we use them. Today, we decided to make a witch’s brew using lots of different ingredients. We used our imagination when making the brew and changed the name of the ingredients to fit the theme of Halloween. We used sequencing vocabulary to orally tell our friends how to make the brew before finally drinking it. We loved being witches in this lesson!

A visit from Reverend Ian to our school assembly.

1st October 2025K Richardson

This morning we had a visit from Reverend Ian at St John’s church. He talked about how God created people in his image. He talked about how people are special and how you see their images on coins etc. He then talked about how everyone is special, how we have to treat everyone with kindness and look after everyone.
