Hello little Kingfishers! 🌈

I hope that you are all ok and staying safe. I am missing you all lots! I have really enjoyed receiving the photos of your home learning. You have been fantastic at giving everything your best effort! I have uploaded your home learning for next week - the last week before May half term!

Take care,

Hello Kingfishers! 

I am missing you all! It was lovely to speak with some of you on Zoom this morning. Receiving the photos and videos of your home learning is my favourite part of the day - so please keep sending them to me! Below is your home learning for week five, I hope you enjoy the activities. You have been so creative in taking a topic and turning into a fun activity, like setting up a shop to practise using money - it is wonderful! Keep up the fantastic work, I am so proud of you all. 

Take care,

Miss Foreman 

PS - I had completely forgotten that Friday was a bank holiday so please ignore Friday's home learning. Enjoy your day together as a family!

Good morning Kingfishers!

I have had some lovely emails with photographs of the home learning you have completed, I'd love to see what you have been up to so feel free to send them to me.

Dear Kingfishers,

Below is the timetable that we talked about in class so that your grown ups can see it. Please try to complete some learning each day and have a go at the different activities I have put in your pack. If you have any questions, my email address is at the top of the page so feel free to send me a message. Hopefully you will be able to plant your sunflower seed soon and you can share some photographs with me when it starts to grow. 

Take care and stay safe, I will post another message for you soon!

Term 3 and 4 - Who Were the Pirates?

You can find out more about what we are doing in the term overview and knowledge organiser below.

Our Science Experiment

We have buried four pieces of cheese, each wrapped in a different material, just like Samuel Pepys did during the Great Fire of London. We are trying to find out which material will be the best at protecting the cheese. Here are some photos of us setting up the experiment. We are going to dig up the cheese in a few weeks to see the results!

For the launch of our project, we had a visitor from the past! Jethro, a servant to Samuel Pepys, came to tell us about what life was like in 1666, the year of the Great Fire of London.  We learned about how the fire started, how it spread so quickly and how Samuel Pepys spoke to the King to let him know how serious it was...
