I hope you are all having a wonderful summer. I think of you often and miss you but have been enjoying more sleep than usual, a lovely time on holiday in Italy (a certain few of you would have much enjoyed all the flowers and beautiful dresses at my friend’s wedding!) and lots of visiting museums. I hope all of you have managed to do some fun and interesting activities over the holidays.Â
Here is our playlist covering our Big Talk topics this past term – What can you remember? Can you learn any more about them?Â
In two weeks time you will be starting Year 1 with Mr Fielder – you will have a super time but before you move on up I just want to tell you how proud I am of all of you for your fantastic work this year and how wonderful it has been getting to know all of you. I look forward to catching up when we start the new school year 🙂
It has been so great to be back with you this week and we have had lots of fun!Â

We finished off our dinosaur topic by painting dinosaurs and writing and talking about them for the science display we will be putting up in the entrance hall. We also named the dinosaur who hatched (Brian-Rosie) – we voted on the name so as to be as fair as possible – and excavated some dinosaur skeletons from ice!Â
Can you explain to your adults all the different ways you melted the ice so you could free the dinosaur skeletons trapped there?Â
In literacy this week we did some very important letter writing – we wrote to Mrs Peake asking if we could be allowed to go on a class trip to the farm! You wrote some super letters and Mrs Peake said that we can go!Â
How do we start a letter? (you need to say who the letter is for, so you write ‘Dear‘ to ‘To‘)
How do you finish a letter? (by saying who the letter is from, so ‘From‘ or ‘Love from‘)Â
What did you need to include in your letter to Mrs Peake about the farm trip? (we had to ask if we could please go, why we should be allowed to go and what we would enjoy there)Â
On trip to Vauxhall City Farm will take place on Tuesday 4th July. If you are interested in being one of the adults accompanying us then please let myself or Ms Atkinson know ASAP.Â
During our Big Talk time this week we learnt about where eggs come from and how it is important to think about what the lives of the hens who lay the eggs are like.Â
Would you like to spend your life squashed up in a cage, unable to move?Â
Watch the video again and discuss your thoughts with your adults.Â
Next week we start our two week Under the Sea topic, you can get a head-start on the topic with our new playlist below:
Have a wonderful weekend full of exploring, reading, writing, sleeping, eating, singing, dancing, playing, talking, homework and of course don’t forget to comment on the blog!
It will be Red Team‘s turn for Show and Tell on Friday.Â
I look forward to seeing you again on Monday! Please bring trainers or plimsolls for outdoor PE! 🙂
I’ve missed you so much this week and hope that you’ve had lots of fun. I am so sorry that I couldn’t be with you but whenever I’m not I am always thinking of you.
