Lenten Trail, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 8th Mar 2024 @ 12:36am
All classes have visited Church over the last couple of weeks to follow the Lenten Trail. It was Year 1's turn yesterday. We walked around four stations, all supporting the children to understand the meaning of Lent and how we can pray, fast and give on the run up to Easter. The children learned how Jesus resisted temptation in the desert and how we should try to give up something for Lent to remember how Jesus gave his life for us on Earth. The children talked about how they give to charity- helping others less fortunate than ourselves. They suggested that giving away their own toys and old clothes would help charities raise money for others. They also had lots of suggestions for helping the homeless. Lots of children decided that they would like to give up sweets and treats for Lent, whilst others decided that they would try to be more kind and helpful to their families and others. We're really proud of how they are becoming great followers of Jesus and learning to follow the right path this Lent.
World Book Day, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 8th Mar 2024 @ 12:24am
Year 1 have been celebrating World Book Day throughout this week. We have had a number of online author workshops, some reading stories and others have been teaching us how to illustrate. We have met Bernard Menzah, the author of Kwame's Magic Quest; Liz Pichon, author and illustrator of the Tom Gates books and also joined in with a draw along session with the author, Raahat Kaduji. Today, the children have been excitedly drawing themselves in their costumes- They all looked amazing! They have created shoe box story settings using collage materials, read lots of stories, made bag tags and completed World Book Day puzzles and colouring sheets. What a day! We hope to complete our story setting shoe boxes tomorrow so that we can use them as inspiration for our seaside setting description. Here's a sneak peek of them so far...
Pinch Pots Inspired by Alice Ballard, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 8th Mar 2024 @ 12:03am
Last half term, the children explored a famous sculptor called Alice Ballard. We looked at how she is inspired by nature and her preference of blues and greens to decorate her work. Influenced by our English text, 'The Lighthouse Keeper's Lunch', the children took to designing their own sea themed pinch pots. They first rehearsed with sculpture using playdough, creating waves with the clay tools. They then modelled a pot with clay and decorated with various clay tools. The final step was to paint. We hope you love your little trinket dishes as much as the children did. Well done Year 1!
Hoylake Lifeboat Station, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 7th Mar 2024 @ 11:50pm
We had a fantastic trip last week to Hoylake Lifeboat Station. The children learned all about the hard work of the RNLI and how lifeboats have changed from the past to the present. The Hoylake Lifeboat Station celebrated 200 years of dedicated service last Monday 4th March. Each lifeboat class is named after a River and the one that they house in Hoylake is a Shannon Class. We were surprised to learn that a Shannon lifeboat costs £2.4 million! We also saw their hovercraft and experienced life in the the crew rooms, where we saw where the selfless volunteers dress in their all weather suits and can look out over the River Mersey. We had a great time and thanked them for their service to the community and for giving their time to teach us all about horse power and engines! We found out that the 200 year celebration flotilla of lifeboats was actually interrupted last Monday, by a mud rescue operation. This just goes to show how important the RNLI's role is in saving lives.
Y2LW World Book Day, by Miss Ward
Date: 7th Mar 2024 @ 5:35pm
What a great day we've had for World Book Day, the costumes have been amazing! We've wrote our own sequel to a story, made bookmarks and had a virtual author visit from Rabat Kaduji where we listened to her new book 'I'm Not Sleepy'. We even had the opportunity to draw some of the pictures from her book too. We've played lots of games and read countless stories and poems. Well done Year 2!
Year 2 Church Visit, by Miss Ward
Date: 7th Mar 2024 @ 5:29pm
Year Two had a lovely visit to church on Tuesday afternoon to speak to Fr Michael about our up coming topic in RE. We discussed different parts of the church and liturgical colours and their meanings. We also talked about Mass and what happens at different parts during the Mass. Thank you for such a lovely visit Fr Michael!
Unidentified object in the playground, by Miss Ward
Date: 7th Mar 2024 @ 5:23pm
The infant playground was awash with excitement and amazement on Monday morning. Year 2 discovered a pile of broken bits, nuts, bolts and wires scattered around the playground. We coned and taped everything off safely and investigated what it could be. The children thought it could have been a rocket or spaceship that had landed. Keep an eye out for updates coming soon.
