Class One look forward to our weekly library visits. We enjoy sharing books with our peers and the library reading buddies!

In maths we have been exploring shapes. We have looked closely at 3 dimentional shapes, considering their properties, the 2 dimentional shapes that make up a 3D shape. We have thought carefully about the shapes that we can shack and build with and the ones that we can't, we have printed with the 3D shapes to discover the 2D shapes that make them up as well as grouping them by their different properties. We have had so much fun!

We had a very special visitor in school today, a hindu preist cam to tell us all about the hindu faith and shared stories form the hindu culture.
We got dressed up, took part in a traditional hindu dance and listened to hindu stories and even role played the Rama and Sita story. It was so much fun!

Key Stage One were so lucky to be able to welcome Florence Nightingale to visit our school. She told us all about her life and key events from her life time like the crowning of Queen victoria, the start of the victorian era, the invention of the lightbulb and the steam train as well as much more.
We attended Florences nursing school where we cleaned up the hospital in Scutari and nursed injured soldiers back to health. We also learnt about May Secole who was a key person of the time who also nursed soldiers back to health.
