In school this year we are all working together and taking part in a Reverse Advent Calendar. We are collecting food and toiletries for people in need within our local community. Lucy from the Gateshead Food Bank visited school and talked about the important work they are doing and how we can help as a community.
This week we have been learning about the weather. During our computing lesson, we were able to produce our very own weather reports using the school green screen.
For collective worship this week, the children thanked God for all of the wonderful things that they have. We talked about how some children were not as fortunate as us and what we can do to help.
Miss Wilson shared a wonderful radio broadcast with school today. We listened to our usual celebration of achievements throughout school. Along with this, we heard about all of the wonder activities we have been doing in class to help support and care for one another and our wider community.
This week in Reception, we have been learning all about animal habitats and hibernation. We made our own cave in the classroom and wore fur coats to represent a bears fur. The children discussed the change in season and how it makes us feel. During outdoor learning we made a selection of habitats for a range of different woodland creatures.
