Family Picnic

Today we had a wonderful family picnic.

The children made their own food and shared it with parents, grandparents and siblings! 

This was the result of our DT unit on healthy eating and food choices. We planned healthy food for our picnic, prepared the food and then assembled our choices.

Have a look at the pictures to see all of our hard work!




First we had to get all the fruit and vegetables ready. 

We learned how to peel carrots, chop up peppers to scoop out the seeds and make sure we cut the fruit into equal pieces to use on our fruit kebabs.







 Then we made our sandwiches, chopped up our vegetable sticks, and assembled our fruit kebabs.




 We made our fruit kebabs using bamboo skewers and a choice of yummy fresh fruit.




It was so exciting to have our families join us to share in the fun on the field!










Ammar got to spend some time reading to his Mum. 

Caden showed off his cartwheels!
 Sophia's Dad made a great goalkeeper!




Molly is proving to be a superstar gymnast too!














We all had lots of fun and we are so grateful for all the parents who came and supported us today - thank you! 

We look forward to the next time we get to share our work with you.

Design and Technology - Fruit Kebabs

 In Design and Technology this half term, Year 1 have been learning about the importance of healthy food choices. We have also designed our own fruit kebabs, and this week we have had the opportunity to make them.  The children discussed the importance of washing their hands and ensuring the fruit was clean.  The children then peeled bananas and tangerines. The children also used the bridge hold to slice apples and bananas. The children were very sensible and assembled amazing kebabs.  Well done Year 1! 🍌🍓🍎

Computing - Bee Bots

Image
 In Computing this half term we have been learning all about algorithms and the importance of instructions.  Today, the children worked in pairs to make their Bee Bot move to follow their intended route. The children discussed different possible routes the Bee Bot could take and then they tested these with their partner.  G.P "You have to make sure you press the 'X' to clear the instructions before. Otherwise it just goes round and round." E.M "I tried to make it go right then left and forwards. It worked!"

  Today the children from Year 1 Owls had the opportunity to visit Cookridge Court Care Home.  The children performed "Somewhere over the rainbow", created a piece of artwork using oil pastels and baked scones to deliver to the residents.  The children loved the visit and it was so special making this link to our local community.  M.H "I loved the care home, it was so awesome. I liked singing for them." M.K "I loved talking to the old lady in the wheelchair, she was kind. She said she was a doctor in the olden days." 🌈🌈🌈
