The Rainbow Fish

The Infant children have been reading the story of the Rainbow Fish.

Together we made a big rainbow fish and some other sea animals. It is on display in the corridor and is beautiful. Come and see it!
Also, the 4 year old children did a play for the other children. It was fantastic!

CARNIVAL & VAN GOGH

As you know, Carnival was celebrated in the school last Friday!!!

The topic this year was ART

Yr.2 pupils learnt about Van Gogh, his life and his work. Many activities were carried out in different areas such as looking for information and descriptions of the artist; book reading about his life and work; thinking about how some of this canvas made us feel; painting some of his masterpieces...

Besides, (and thanks to the parents' help) children made their own carnival costume!! 

We were Sunflowers!!!

MMMM!!! They are DELICIOUS!!

Read the information below and learn more things about Pancake Day...

Pancake Day (or Shrove Tuesday) is the last day before the period of Lent. Lent is a time of abstinence, of giving things up. So Shrove Tuesday is the last chance to indulge yourself, and to use up the foods that aren't allowed in Lent. Pancakes are eaten on this day because they contain fat, butter and eggs which were forbidden during Lent.

On that day it is traditional to eat pancakes, toss pancakes and take part in pancake races.

In 2014 Pancake Day will be on March the 4th.

INTERESTING FACT:

The world's biggest pancake was cooked in Rochdale in 1994. It was an amazing 15 metres diameter, weighed three tonnes and had an estimated two million calories!
