Eagles Class have settled fantastically well into their new class. In class, we have begun to read the Egyptian Cinderella! The children have been learning the story through hot seating, drama and story mapping before they begin writing their own Egyptian fairy tale!
Owls class have been busy in art looking at how to mix primary colours to make beautiful shades of colour. We then decorated our fish in line with the story ‘Rainbow Fish’ which we have been reading and working on in literacy. The children’s work look beautiful!
The children have settled into Robins class with ease and are enjoying their first topic “All About Me.” They have been sharing their special boxes, talking about their families and learning more about each other. They have had great fun creating some brilliant self portraits using both colouring pencils and a computer programme this week!
All the children enjoyed listening to a musical medley in our assembly today. We were joined by Front Row Music who offer ukulele (years 1-4) and guitar (years 3-4) lessons in school. Look out for a booking form in your child’s bag.
Wishing you all the very best of luck for the future – you will be missed!
Doves class recently visited Woburn Safari Park as part of our topic – Wild and Wonderful. We have been studying the rainforests and all of the creatures that live in these wonderful habitats. We were fortunate enough to take part in a safari to see some African animals and we also attended a Rainforest Workshop. Doves class thoroughly enjoyed the day and visiting all of the animals! Thank you so much to all those who made this trip possible.
Our Year 4 children worked really hard over the last half term, working with Miss Granelli and Miss Dancer, to produce an amazing Leavers Assembly which they shared with school and parents. A big thank you goes to the Friends of Houghton Conquest Lower School for funding the Annual Leavers Yearbook which was presented to each of the children. Thanks also goes to Mrs Padian for giving up her time to come and present the Padian Award for Community Spirit which this year was awarded to Harry Exworth.
Owls class went on their school trip last week. All of the children thoroughly enjoyed themselves exploring the beautiful gardens. The class participated in many different activities, ranging from creating their own bean hotel, identifying plants around the garden, texture bingo and exploring the sculpture trial. Owls class also got to take a ride on a vintage Wellingborough bus around Shuttleworth park, with an open top roof! All of the children had such a lovely day.
