World Well-Being Week

This week was World Well-Being week and we had a variety of activities to provide our children with calmness and tranquillity. On Monday, we had lots of circus activities out on the playground where the children were able to learn a new a skill. On Tuesday, we had a focus on mindful singing in our assembly as well as in class. On Wednesday, we had a some yoga exercises enabling the children to achieve peacefulness in both body and mind. On Thursday, we had a spa experience, to give ourselves rest and relieve any stress or worry. Year 4 were also able to have additional enrichment to their week by participating in a ukulele workshop delivered by the Yorkshire Academy of Creative Arts & Dance (YACAD). Today, we had lovely mindfulness through dot painting or abstract art inspired by Paul Klee.

Miss Carter

Y5 Volcano Parent Event

If you were looking for awe and wonder, you needed to look no further than the Year 5 volcano parent event. The children were very excited and there was a real bustle to the classrooms as they worked together to create active volcanoes. Our governors joined Year 5 for their workshop and they were so impressed by the parent community coming together and being a part our children’s learning journey.

Y4 Art Parent event

Year 4 had a fabulous parent event as well! We had a carousel of 4 different art activities related to sculpture and they used their previous knowledge around the Angel of the North. We were super impressed with the positive atmosphere and the teamwork of the Year 4 team.
