Back to School! September fun!

Welcome to our class blog!

We have been having lots of fun since coming back to school. We started our year talking about affirmations and focusing on our wellbeing. We spoke about what we are good at, our strengths and we listened to the story called the Name Jar. We learned about how important our names are to us and we created our own name jars with lots of affirmations around it. Some of us read out our affirmations in front of the class! Check out our Affirmation Station!

We also won the Golden Boot in our first week back! This prize is for travelling to school in a sustainable way. Our class had the most people who walked, cycled, scooted or parked and stride this week!

In Art we learned about Wassily Kandinsky. We learned about how he was famous for his abstract paintings and looked at this city skyscraper painting. We spoke about how he associated colours with feelings such as red for anger, green for calm, blue for sadness etc, we created our own version of Kandinsky’s famous painting! We also mixed colours to make new colours. We also explored different lines and designs on our buildings!

This year there has been great excitement at lunchtime as hot lunches have arrived in our school from Carambola! The children have selected their lunches and are trying out the different meals. Lunches can be changes by Friday midnight to have a new set of meals for the next week. They have been loving their tasty meals! You can see from the faces that they have gone down well!
