SUMMER TERM 2020

Hello everyone!

Well, this is a very strange blurb I am about to write for our Summer term activities. With lockdown continuing, I need to remind you how much I am missing you all. I am messaging everyday (my need really!) and checking in on all of you and I think you are all superstars! 

I hope the weather continues to be good and I want you all to get outside and look at nature. You've all been given the gift of time, so use it wisely (social distancing of course!) 

I'm waiting for my letters to land on my mat every morning and then I shall write back. Letter writing and drawing pictures is a really good way to make writing real and to also document this time. We can look back on these letters in years to come. 

I have everything crossed that we will be returning in some way to our lovely classroom before July. This will be Jasmine's last term in Primary and it can't end like this, can it?? 8 years together!

I miss you all. Stay safe and if you need me, I'm here 

Happy New Year

A massive happy new year to you all. I can't believe we are actually in the Fabulous Twenties! I hope you all had a lovely Christmas and the children are well rested and ready to work.

We are carrying on with our Julia Donaldson Books as the children have loved them. So we are starting with Room on the Broom. We have a trip to the theatre to see this book come to life....letters will be out by the end of the week. 

Let's have a great term!

Mrs A

Budding Scientists

We have had a very Scientific Week! We are studying Solids, Liquids and Gases and looking at Solids that pour. The children have loved using the microscopes, observing the solids carefully and feel like budding Scientists!

Elf Antics

Our naughty Eddie The Elf landed in class at the beginning of December. He has been very mischievous this term!! Here are some of his antics ........

Autumn Term 2019

Hello Everyone. I hope you had a great summer and are all ready for another exciting year in class!

We welcome a new pupil to our class. His name is Tristan and he's in Year 5. I'm sure he will love our class!

This term our topic is The Gruffalo. We will be completing lots of activities around the book and we are planning on visiting the Gruffalo Trail in Caerphilly. 

We will have a great term! Look out for updates and pictures from our adventures.

We had great fun in the Halloween Disco

2019....SO FAR!

Apologies for the lateness of Mrs Arnold updating this page! As you know, we are well into our Transport theme and we are currently in the middle of a Welsh Month. The children are enjoying all things Welsh!

We will probably carry on with the Transport theme into the Summer Term as there is so much more we want to do. 

We had a lovely visit to St Fagan's. The children enjoyed it. 

End of Summer Term 2018

Hello Everyone

Just a quick note to say well done on a great year. We bid a fond farewell to Jacob who moves to his comprehensive school in September. We wish him the best of luck and I know the children and staff will miss him. 

Hope you all have a great Summer. Lots of chatting please! 

Our topic in September will be SUPERHEROES!

See you in September

Mrs Arnold 

Summer Term 2018

Welcome back everyone. I hope you all had a great Easter and didn't eat too much chocolate.

We have another busy term ahead. The national tests will take place at the beginning of May (Years 2-6). Please don't worry about these! The children can only do their best. 

Our topic for the term ahead is "Let's Celebrate". I'm going to let the children lead their own learning by asking them what they would like to learn about. I'm hoping they will name weddings, birthdays, births, Christenings etc...

We will (hopefully) have a mock wedding at the end of the term where we will ask the children to dress in their best clothes and bring an item of food to school to share with the class, so we can have a "wedding breakfast" in the afternoon. 

If you have any old bridesmaids dresses, old suits, ties etc that you could give to us I would be very grateful. 

Any pictures of your weddings would be great too! 

Thanks everyone 

Mrs Arnold

Autumn term 2017

Hello everyone!

Welcome back to the Autumn Term. Hope you all had a great Summer and did lots of speaking, talking and listening. I can't believe that this is the last year of Primary School for 3 special pupils. We will be saying bye to Rose, Jacob and Kyle this year as they head off into the big wide world of Comprehensive.

This term, we welcome a new little girl called Autumn. She is 4 years old and is Reception year. Welcome to our class Autumn!

The Autumn term is one of my favourite and we shall be looking for all the signs of Autumn, and building up to Halloween and Bonfire Night. 

This term is always jam packed and busy.

Summer  Term 2017

Hello everyone. Welcome back to school. I can't believe how fast this year is going and we are in the last term already. 

This term, we are learning all about MINIBEASTS. We will be looking at all different bugs and insects, learning their names and finding out about them. This will tie in with work on Habitats and Growing Things in Science. 

The juniors will be learning about Non-Fiction texts and how to retrieve information from reading passages. The infant children will be listening to lots of stories connected to Minibeasts and improving their writing and reading. 

If you have any books on insects, draw attention to them and ask the children the names of the insects that they see in the environment. Go for a walk in your local woods and have a good look for bugs and insects. Take pictures so the children can show their classmates.     

It's all about language and building their vocabulary. 

This term, Year 5 goes to Llangrannog. There will also be Sports Day in June and I will hold a Parent's Coffee Afternoon for you to come and see your child's work and chat to the other parents and myself. 

Spring Term 2017

Welcome back everybody and a happy new year to you all!

Our topic this term is Fairytales and Traditional Tales. The children will be listening to lots of stories, including Snow White, Beauty and The Beast, The Enormous Turnip. The junior children will be learning about characters, settings and story writing. The younger children will be completing lots of work based around Goldilocks, The Three Little Pigs and Red Riding Hood. 

I am am planning two trips; to Castell Coch for a picnic and later in the term to the cinema to see Beauty and The Beast. 

It's all about language and listening and learning new vocabulary. 

Welcome back to school everyone! I hope you had a wonderful Summer and all the children are ready to work! 

We need to welcome 2 new members to our lovely class. Dylan is in nursery and Aimee is in Year 2. They have settled beautifully into our happy class. 

This term our topic is all about Space. The children will be learning all about the Earth they live on and basic facts about the planets in our Solar System. We will turn our play corner into a Moon Space camp and have astronauts floating around. 

We will be using our imagination to create Alien planets.

Any thing that you see related to our topic, draw your child's attention to it.  It's all about language. 

Welcome to the Summer Term Folks!

Our topic is Under The Sea! 

We will be transforming our classroom into an Under The Sea Habitat with a submarine and Mermaid cove. We will be looking at and naming all different Sea Creatures and learning about the habitat that they live in.

Lots of exciting learning will be taking place this term!
