Wow what a week!

This week we watched BBC teach lesson about helping our minds to have a growth mindset. We learned about using our hand to help us breathe to calm our mind. We learned about using music to keep our mind balanced. A healthy mind can keep us kind to everyone including ourselves!

Presentation Primary School came to visit, we made some art and learnt a little more about each other. We had such a fantastic time!

Also this week we were investigating items that would float and sink in our topic of Pirates! And to finish off our fun topic we danced and used some drama to act out the pirate songs. We also did some pirate Numeracy where a cube was worth 10 and a coin was worth 2, which was very tricky!


Please take a close look at our fun packed week...

It was our first time going to Presentation Primary School and we were so excited! P3WA had a fantastic time reacquainting themselves with the P3 children at Presentation. We played games to find out a little more about each other, we watched the story of ‘The Three little Pigs’ and took part in a carousel of activities related to the story and we learnt a song that included some fantastic air guitar performances!

P3WA thoroughly enjoyed taking part in a worship to create mini wind turbines. 


They were learning about turbines, shafts, washers and using these pieces of equipment to make the best movements into the wind. Everyone was very excited to discover how their wind turbine moved!

We have also been learning lots about pirates, we even created our own fictional pirates and made ‘wanted’ posters to describe their appearance and crimes! Watch out!

Another full week of learning for P3! In Personal Development and Mutul Understanding we thought about safety and the sorts of things that were and weren't safe. It was really lovely to hear that all of the children could think of lots of people they feel safe with. In Numeracy, we continued to investigate number sequences including number bonds in teams. In Literacy, we thought about how we structure our sentences and what punctuation we might need. In Art we recapped our learning from last Friday, about the Russian painter, Wassily Kandinsky. This Friday we continued our own versions of 'Squares with Concentric Circles'. Wow, we did loads and that wasn't even it all!

P3W enjoyed an experience of what Christmas was like from 200 years ago.  They made a lantern decoration, visited the cook who was making mince pies and cakes.  Then the excitement was building as they visited Santa, who was sound asleep!  All of the children got to share their special Christmas wish with Santa too.  Finally the children experienced a visit to an American soldier who taught them a few rules and interesting facts about Christmas toys and living life alone.

Take a look at all of the great fun..........
