Exciting times ahead – everyone’s moving up. All children got the chance to experience the morning in their new Year classrooms and teacher. Getting a feel for their new surroundings is really important and an exciting change from the normal routine. The only scary thing is how quickly time flies!

Over this term we’ve been learning lots of schoolbag items, and how to say the colour of the item too; we can usually remember to put it after the item! We’ve also been learning how to say which items we have and don’t have.

The results from the recent LAMDA exams were amazing, we had some great pass marks including 9 children passing with a merit and 19 children gaining a distinction. Fantastic results well done to all the LAMDA actors who took their exams this year.

This week the children were treated to a judo demonstration and coaching sessions from two international Judo players.  They were shown basic throws, holds and given the opportunity to try these out on their class mates.  All the children really enjoyed the opportunity and were excited to learn some new skills.

Whilst listening to their favourite classical pieces the children really expressed themselves within the time and phrasing of the music with great delivery. Year 2’s have been enjoying listening to Beethoven’s 5th Symphony in Music this term. And then…

This week we enjoyed the story telling days launched by a visit from a storyteller.  The children were mesmerized by the retelling of traditional tales and Cinderella and the dragon.
