In September, 1st and 2nd class enjoyed listening to and reading the story “Roy, A Tale of a Singing Zebra” – a story about following your dreams, making friends and new adventures.  We used the story as a stimulus for creating some Art. The boys and girls really enjoyed creating their zebra designs and experimenting with different shape patterns to create cool zebra stripes.  The finished creations look great!

Did you know? Zebras are actually black with white stripes!  Here is a link to some other fun and interesting facts about zebras.

Zebra facts!

As we start a new school year, 1st & 2nd class are busy exploring the theme of “All About Me”.  This week, we put a fun twist on our self-portraits and created Minecraft selfies. Great work, boys and girls!

This is a traditional Christmas story with a difference! The infants’ play is set at Bethlehem Inn and told from the perspective of a weary innkeeper, who finds he’s in for a sleepless night. He has many guests at his inn but two in particular are really special!

What a fabulous day we had on our school tour 2022. ” This is awesome” was what some of the pupils were saying even before we got to Graune Pet Farm as this was the first time some pupils were ever on a bus! We had lots of singing on the way and the excitement was palpable. Then when we arrived at Graune, the pupils went straight into the indoor play area where they had great fun on the slides. From here we spent some time outside in the sand arena and on the zip lines. Then we stopped for lunch and after that we went on a tour of the farm where we meet the various animals that live there. The pupils got to feed and pet lots of the animals which they all thoroughly enjoyed. Some pupils even exclaimed they could now “talk rooster!”.  After this we had fun and laughs in the outside playground until it was home time. We had one last cuddle with our rabbit friends and then made the journey home. I bet everyone will sleep well tonight after such a brilliant day out together. Here are some pics from our day out!
