This week in school we are participating in an event called Feet First Families. The children have been asked to walk to school each morning from the Presbyterian Church hall. Each class have been assigned a day to bring in their bikes or scooters and we encourage all children to participate in some way if possible.
On Monday, the staff were delighted with the effort made by parents and families as we had over 50 children walk up to school. This was a fantastic turn out and let's hope we keep this up for the rest of the week. There might be a prize for the class with the most number of children who walked and also individual prizes for the children who managed to walk to school every day.
Here are a few photos of everyone setting off on our first morning.
We have had a busy two weeks bringing our favourite books in to read during book day and riding our bikes and scooters for "Feet First Families".
This week in French, we have been learning how to introduce different members of our family. Have a look at our video.
On Thursday 1st March, the children were asked to come to school wearing their pyjamas or a onesie for World Book Day. Each child brought in one of their favourite books from home and were given the opportunity to share with the rest of the class what part of the story was their favourite. All the children really enjoyed taking part and we were all very cosy in our pyjamas.
On Thursday Mrs Doherty brought IZAC9 to our class, this was a real treat to use a resource from the Year 6/7 room. We were given a challenge to build a wall, but not any wall. Each block had a number from 1-9, so we had to put the blocks in order. This was really easy for us as we have been counting forwards and backwards using numbers from 0-20. Some children were even able to find larger numbers and order them too!
Today in school we celebrated world book day. We came dressed in our pyjamas and brought our favourite book. We thought we'd have some fun reading in strange places, so when the children heard the bells ringing they had to stop what they were doing, get under their table and read their book. We had lots of fun and have been making bookmarks in class to remind us which page we have read up to.
The year 3 and 4 children were getting prepared for world book day. They discussed their favourite books and the book which they have chosen to bring to school on World book day. Today in Mrs Kane's afternoon class, the children made personalised bookmarks to use tomorrow when reading their books.
