On Thursday 21st of October, a magician came to our school. He did multiple tricks. Our favourite trick was when he made a pumpkin disappear. He also made some amazing Halloween characters made out of balloons. We were all very eager to be his assistant magician. Lillian, Seth and Andrew did an excellent job! It was super fun. It was really exciting and we laughed a lot. The blow up cemetery was amazing.

On Thursday 21st October 2021, we had our annual Harvest Festival. The nursery children sang ‘A Dingle Dangle Scarecrow’. Team Marble performed ‘The Gingerbread Man’. Team Amethyst played ‘Harvest Rock’ on the recorder and a rhythm piece called ‘Harvest Sogo’. Lily and John played ‘Autumn’ on the violin. To end our Harvest Festival, Year 5 and 6 read their poems.
The children brought in lots of food which we will be donating to Stanhope food bank.
As an end of our unit on Growing Our Future, children from team Amethyst have made these videos to remind everyone about the importance of trees.
We hope you enjoy them…
Throughout this week, the children have engaged with various activities promoting a love of reading. We’ve had virtual story times, a virtual quiz, an online I-spy twenty characters and a very funny tongue twister competition! On Thursday, the children dressed up as their favourite character from a book – we had Cedric Diggory, Minion, Darth Vader, Stanley Ipkiss and the Karate Kid to mention a few. The children (and staff) thoroughly enjoyed trying to guess “The Masked Reader”.
Thank you to everyone for taking part in the virtual activities – we hope you had lots of fun!
Isabella filmed herself in front of a map to tell us all about Angel Falls.
