Tamar class were excited to find some special visitors waiting in our classroom this morning. Pig the Pug and Trevor the sausage dog are the main characters in our new English text "Pig the Pug" written by Aaron Blabey. Children enjoyed listening to the story and then created their own Pig the Pug masks!

Joshua Class kicked off this half term by seeing a dragon outside school! They were then inspired by the book the dragon machine and made their own machines with some fabulous ideas. They will be learning about castles this week and today dressed as members of the royal court. They challenged themselves to make stain glass windows to make our classroom look like a castle.

Joshua class were so excited to see our eggs had hatched today!! The children had a go at feeling the reptile we found. Some children thought it was a dragon and some thought it was a lizard. Lots of Joshua class were inspired to make our visitor a home or some toys to play with. Thank you Miss Chapman for allowing Mr Lizard to join Joshua Class today....
