Year 1: What We Are Learning W/C 23rd Mar 2026

 

Year 1: What We Are Learning 

In maths this week, we have been learning about capacity. The children explored different units of measurement including multilink cubes and cups of water. The children decided that water gave a more accurate result since it was able to completely fill the space within the containers whereas multilink didn’t fit in so well leaving lots of space unaccounted for. See photos below of children exploring these units of measurement.

We are delighted to share that our Year 1 children enjoyed a wonderful Cultural Day during an afternoon session! It was a fantastic opportunity for them to explore and celebrate different cultures from around the world. Throughout the afternoon, the children learned about Buddhism in Nepal, discovering some of its traditions and beliefs. They also explored aspects of Indian culture, including traditions, clothing and celebrations. In addition, the children were introduced to Romanian culture, learning about its customs and what makes it unique. The session was filled with engaging activities, discussions and opportunities for the children to share their own experiences. It was lovely to see their curiosity, respect and enthusiasm as they learned about different ways of life. A big thank you to the Year 1 families that participated in our cultural day, we really appreciate your time, effort and involvement in the children's learning!

This week the children have been enjoying a range of Easter themed crafts and activities.

The children participated in an exciting Easter egg hunt, where they worked together, followed clues and had lots of fun searching for hidden eggs and carrots!

A special highlight was our Easter parade, where the children proudly wore their wonderful Easter hats made at home. We were so impressed by the creativity, effort and individuality, super job Year 1!

Year 2 learning blog

 

This week, Year 2 enjoyed a very special visit to the church as part of their learning. The children were excited to have the opportunity to explore the church building and learn more about its importance in the local community.

During our visit, we were kindly given a personal tour by Victor, who shared lots of interesting information with us. He showed the children around the church and explained the purpose of different areas and features inside the building. The children were fascinated to see these up close and to hear more about how the church is used.

One of the most valuable parts of the visit was the chance for the children to ask questions. Victor took the time to answer them carefully, helping the children to deepen their understanding and satisfy their curiosity. They asked thoughtful questions and showed great enthusiasm throughout the tour.

The visit gave the children a wonderful opportunity to bring their classroom learning to life through first-hand experience. They were respectful, engaged and eager to learn, and they represented the school beautifully.

Pine class forest school

Pine Class had their final forest school for Year 2 this morning and enjoyed toasting marshmallows over the fire. Then they put them inside a brioche bun to enjoy. There was hot chocolate or squash to drink and the children all helped to put the fire out together. I introduced the children the Hapa zome, the Japanese art form where you bash natural items like grass or petals to get the dye out of them. We made butterflies, hair bows and bow ties.
