What a brilliant week discovering the story of an incredibly brave woman…Grace Darling. She was the daughter of a lighthouse keeper, who showed bravery, courage and determination to rescue nine people when their ship ran aground on the Farne Islands off the coast of Northumberland. We reenacted the story in our garden and wrote some brilliant sentences about what we had discovered.
We thought this was a very fitting song for our learning this week. The children have been asking me for weeks to put it on our blog. After months of enjoying the song as part of our class worship we finally performed to a sell out crowd of Nursery and Miss Hornby!
I know many of you have been playing it at home already but if you want to enjoy the song together the button below will take you to a lyrics video.
Every week we have some very special writing time where we all transform into authors, and work together to share ideas and build some fun stories. I had to share this week’s story with you all, I think it might be our best one yet…look at those words!
