Oh I do like to be beside the seaside!

On Tuesday the children ventured into St Annes, for their first ever school trip! They were such role models for Our Lady’s and made me so proud! They were able to identify lots of different human and physical geographical features along the way and had great fun using their ‘eye spy’ sheet, to explore our local area. Following this, we played with the parachute on the beach and had a wonderful time in the fresh sea air. I hope you enjoy the photos below…look at all those happy faces!


What have we been learning this week?

In Maths this week, the children have been partitioning numbers within 10, into 2 and 3 parts! They then used this learning to add the numbers together, using the addition symbol.

In English the children have been writing creative sentences with ‘and’. They then wrote character descriptions for Mole and Crocodile, by joining two sentences together. I was so impressed with the children’s choice of adjectives. They are growing to be such creative writers!

We had our third Kidsafe lesson this week. We learned all about using technology safely. Please find this weeks Parent Letter attached for you to read.


Hip-Hip-Hooray!
