As part of our Jigsaw PSHE work in the 'Healthy Me' unit, we have discussed different food groups and what makes a snack healthy compared to a treat food. Today we made our healthy fruit kebab snacks. We also got the chance to practise cutting and chopping the fruit using the 'bridge' and 'claw' methods so that we were cutting foods safely. Most of the children then ate their fruit kebab as their morning snack with many children saying how delicious they were!

On Thursday 28th November, Year 2 went on their class trip to Oxford Castle. There was great excitement to go and see a real-life castle as part of our Autumn Term Castles Topic work. We had a fun-filled day where we got to climb the mound, go on a tour of the castle and prison and take part in a workshop session. As part of the work shop session, we became archaeologists and got to explore and handle artefacts along with using our senses to experience what life would have been like when the castle was at it's peak. The smelling boxes were a firm favourite, even though some of the smells were not the pleasantest! A huge thank you to all of the staff and parent helpers who helped to make our trip a great success!

In the Summer Term, the Milestone Infrastructure Roadshow team came into school to provide a range of activities for our Year 1 and Year 2 children to learn more about staying safe around roads and the important work that the team does to keep us and our roads safe. As part of this visit, there was a competition for children to design their own road sign to help others to stay safe when out on the roads. It was incredibly exciting this week when the team came in to announce the winners of the competition. The winners had their designs made into real road signs which will be displayed near school and were given a book token each. Congratulations to our winning designers and a huge thank you to the Milestone team for giving us this fantastic opportunity.

A huge thank you to the team from the Milestone Infrastructure Roadshow who came into school to provide a range of activities for our Year 1 and Year 2 children to learn more about staying safe around roads. It was interesting to hear all about the work that is done to maintain our roads and the types of vehicles that are used to do that. A real highlight was being able to see some of these vehicles up close including a gully cleaner and a dragon patcher. There were lots of interesting questions asked by the children about pot holes too!

We created a fact file focusing on the location of the Galapagos Islands, how they were formed, what the climate is like and what wildlife can be found there. We learnt about Charles Darwin and Sir David Attenborough's work focusing on the wildlife of the islands. We used our fact files to create our own non-fiction booklets to tell everyone important facts about the islands.
