What a day!
As part of our ‘Out and About’ theme, that we start next week, we headed to Gibside, National Trust. We had a day of den building, orienteering, walking through the forest and up too many hills to count!! We even had enough energy to play at ,Strawberry Castle play area. We loved every second but the den building was a firm favourite. We can’t wait to go back again.
This week we took a trip to Gibside, an 18th century park and garden. The children loved spending the day running around, building dens using their OPAL skills and using new maths skills to try out orienteering! We will be using some of our photos of the day to support our learning in our last Learning Means the World topic of the year ‘Out and About’. We had a lovely day. Thank you to everyone who came along and helped support our trip!
Today we were lucky enough to have a truly memorable visit from the author Stuart Reid. He read from his books and we helped him to reenact his favourite ( but disgusting !) parts. I think we have all been inspired to follow our passions and write about what makes us happy and makes us laugh!















































































We have been so lucky to have had the opportunity to work with Amy who was from a company called Active Futures. Active Futures run a range of sporting activities around the North East and have been running some of these in our local area. This week the children engaged in an activity called Futsal which is like a smaller scale game of football. Amy showed the children some tricks to do with the football and then played lots of games. The children really enjoyed their sessions and even received a leaflet to take home with all of the information about the activities that Active Futures run. Please feel free to have a look and sign up to the activities!
