Rainbow Unit- Autumn Term Week 13
Date: 19th Dec 2024 @ 4:31pm
It’s has been a lovely week for the Rainbow Unit this week as we have had our first school trip. We are so proud of all the children, they coped well with the coach journey and enjoyed exploring all the different areas of the farm. Whilst we were there, some of the children enjoyed watching a magic show with the year 6 play leaders. They all enjoyed playing in the park at the end of the day and some were that exhausted from a day of fun that they fell asleep on the journey home.
This week we have also been continuing with our bucket therapy lessons. It has been lovely to see most of the children engaged during this session and showing their anticipation skills as we have been waiting to see what is next to come out of the bucket! We are also consistently using a communication board during this time when we are using the bubbles.
We will share the photos from our trip to the farm soon, you will be invited into school to see them along with photos of Christmas activities 😊
If your child has come home with any of our school spare uniform over the last few weeks, please could you send it back in to school.
We hope you have a lovely weekend!

Year 6 Trip to Advent Service at Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral
Date: 19th Dec 2024 @ 4:25pm
Year 6 were lucky enough to be invited to attend the Advent Service at Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral.
It was a fantastic afternoon and was lots of fun. The advent service was told through song and we even got to take gifts for those less fortunate than ourselves. The gifts were taken up during the service to be distributed by Nugent Care.

Year 6 loved their DT lesson cooking vegetable stir fry which they had been researching and planning in the previous weeks.
All of the children had a go at preparing the food and cooking it.
Some children even discovered some new foods which they now like.
Although we didn't all like everything, the food was very tasty and we all tried it.

Year 5 and 6 have had an amazing day dancing and singing with all their friends and not one, but two discos!

What an exciting time we have had in EYFS this month! We have been learning all about waiting and Advent in RE. We have used the knitted nativity set to retell the story of Jesus’ birth. We put up our Christmas tree and made our own Advent promise hearts.
The children have been busy decorating wooden Christmas tree ornaments, making reindeer food and designing our own Christmas cards. This year EYFS had a special visitor, Jimmy the Shepherd, who has been helping the children understand the true meaning of Christmas with daily tasks.

This week we have had a special visit from the Halton Dental Service. They told us all about how to clean our teeth properly and what foods to avoid. The children loved practicing cleaning their teeth and sorting foods. We then got to take home a brand new tooth brush and tooth paste, the children couldn’t wait to brush their teeth at home!

Wow! What a lovely surprise we had over night. The children were amazed by the snow and ice in the EYFS area. In small groups we went outside to discover. The children loved going down the hill and making snow balls.

Y3 - DT - Gingerbread stained glass biscuits and packaging
Date: 18th Dec 2024 @ 8:38am
This half term's DT project involved us evaluating some stained glass window biscuits. We thought about which designs looked best and then designed our own, choosing the outside shape, inside shape and the colour of sweet in the middle.
Then we had an afternoon of rolling, cutting and baking.
At the same time, we designed and constructed a package for our biscuit, something that would keep it safe and also make it more appealing to give to someone, we thought about eye catching colours and messages.
Then we packaged up our biscuits ready to take home and gift them!
"I have never rolled dough before, it was a lot harder and I had to keep squishing it and then rolling again to make it soft" - Skylar
"Our biscuits didn't all fit in our boxes because they had got bigger in the oven!" - Emily
