Year 2 Tigers

As part of their topic on tigers, year 2 had a fascinating visit to Marwell Zoo. In school they prepared and performed a Tiger Dance to accompany a reading of William Blake’s The Tyger by years 5 & 6 – reception were a very surprised and appreciative audience. Later, they shared research they had written up about tigers with reading buddies.

Christmas Tree Festival Preparations

Year 6 and Reception enjoyed an afternoon of craft as they made decorations to go onto our tree.  

Christmas Tree Festival

1516_WP_20151209_16_19_13_ProDon’t forget the Christmas tree festival at Emmanuel Baptist Church, Thursday 10th – Saturday 12th December. It is worth a visit just to see all the twinkly lights and smell all the trees, but there is also a life-size nativity scene with dressing up! See if you can find our beautiful tree, with decorations made by Reception and Year 6.
