What a Stunning Start we had! 

Each term we have a different topic, and at the start of every topic we have a 'Stunning Start' day. On this day we have lots of learning opportunities set up to really kick off the topic with excitement, and for our teachers to be able to find out what our pupils already know.

Our topics this term are:
EYFS - Rhyme Time: Can you find the rhyme?
Lower Primary - Stories from around the World: Where does the story come from?
Upper Primary - Powerful Poems: Where will the poem take you?

Our Sensory Room (BD3) and Soft Play Room (BD7) were turned into a collection of Nursery Rhymes! We had everything from Humpty Dumpty to Old McDonald and Ten Green Bottles! Our pupils loved signing along to the rhymes, with some leading the singing themselves! 

One of our stories this term is The Enormous Turnip - and our pupils had a go at planting their own turnip seeds and exploring a vegetable patch. They then had to pulllllllll the Enormous Turnip out in a game of tug of war!

One of our poems this term is 'The Morning Rush', and details some of the activities we have to do to get ready on a morning. Our pupils followed this poem and getting ready in the morning rush! They washed their faced, brushed teeth, and combed their hair ready for the day ahead!

We had a blast at the 'Open Mic Night' where pupils were building their confidence performing short poems to their peers! 

At the end of this term we will have a 'Fabulous Finish' - another special day that takes place at the end of every term, where we show off just what we have learnt!
