Poet and artist Denise Blake is coming into our class every Wednesday. She talks to us and helps us to come up with great ideas and words and then, like magic, she puts them all together and, hey presto we have a poem. We wrote one called "Colours" and another called...

McKenzie built this fantastic robot from Lego!

We are very creative when we are doing our art work and we love doing art about nature.  

For Science week we did lots of exciting experiments in our class and then the children repeated some of them again at home. We made boats using loads of different materials to see which ones would float and which ones would sink.  

We also love to bake or make something in our class each Thursday. We have our very own “Mary Berry” who helps us with this. We made delicious pizza, sausage rolls, shortbread, and we even made a chocolate cake at Hallowe’en!

The children from Aisling’s class love to go out for nature walks and scavenger hunts. We sometimes put on our high visibility vests and walk up the road to see all the little ponies in the field. We are making the most of our new running track too.

We do so much baking and cooking, it can get messy but there's nothing more fun to talk about.

We had a wonderful science week, lots of estimating, experimenting, expressing and laughing.
