How to Catch Santa
In English Class 2 have been basing their writing on the book ‘How to catch Santa’ by Jean Regan. Today we came up with ideas of how we could catch Santa on Christmas Eve and then we designed and labelled our traps.
Look out Santa Class 2 are waiting for you !!!

Buddy Bench
School Council have been busy over the last few weeks thinking of ways to improve school. One idea we had was to have Buddy Benches- Thank you to Jackson who has designed a brilliant poster for our benches.
Remember to use them if you are in need of a friend.
Walter Tull
In History this week, we have learnt about a WWI officer called Walter Tull. We used historical sources to deduce information about his early life and to find out about his involvement in World War I.
Knitting in Class 4
In Class 4 we have been leaning to ‘cast on’ our stitches. We are becoming really confident with this skill. Maybe you could ask your child to show you how to do it?
Houses and Homes Past and Present/Then and Now
In history today we looked at houses and homes comparing the similarities and differences between Victorian homes and our homes today. The children sorted pictures into past and present and then they matched the rooms by observing which features were similar.
