Chick's have an adventure, by Mrs Lister

Date: 22nd Mar 2016 @ 10:18pm

This week the children have been reading the story of 'Rosie's Walk.' As a result of this we decided to let the chicks have an adventure and see if they could go under, over and around objects, just like Rosie.

Have a look at how they did. As you can see the chicks are getting bigger each day. The children have spotted that their wings have grown and they have also noticed that they do poo a lot, which has caused lots of giggles.

We have enjoyed doing lots of writing all about our chicks and making maps of the adventures of Rosie and our chicks when they go for a walk.

Reading Superstar, by Mrs Kellett

Today we had a visitor for Read Write Inc.  She came in to look at how we are teaching early reading and help us to get even better at it.  She visited lots of classes and spoke to lots of children.  She asked for a volunteer from Reception to help her teach some of our teaching assistants. Look at how pleased he was with his achievement.  He was a really credit to our school and I am very proud of him. Well done Paddy
