Parliament Week

On Thursday we were involved in making a very important decision. We had to decide which campaign we wanted to vote for. In assembly the School Council, Eco Committee and Cygnet News put forward their argument to try and persuade us to vote for their campaign.

Here is how we voted in 1GH.

Adventure playground - 14 votes
Nature trail - 7 votes
Stage lights - 2 votes

Mason and Marselis had the important job of posting our envelope containing the results into the ballot box.

Once all the votes had been counted, we received the results in a special envelope. We were overjoyed as the adventure playground won! The excitement didn’t end there, as we then got to have a go at designing how we thought the new adventure playground should look.

Winter Morning By Ogden Nash

Today we started learning this poem ahead of our poetry recital at the end of this half term. If you have mislaid the paper copy, here it is for you to enjoy performing at home. There is also an option for children to learn their own poem and recite it in front of the other classes (Reception, Year 1 and Year 2) if they would like to.  Winter is the king of showmen, Turning tree stumps into snow men And houses into birthday cakes And spreading sugar over lakes. Smooth and clean and frosty white, The world looks good enough to bite. That's the season to be young, Catching snowflakes on your tongue! Snow is snowy when it's snowing. I'm sorry it's slushy when it’s going.

Have You Filled a Bucket Today?

Today we read the story ‘Have You Filled a Bucket Today?' This book introduces the idea that we all carry around an invisible bucket with us every day. The bucket's purpose is to hold good thoughts and good feelings about ourselves. We talked about how we can fill ours and other people’s buckets by carrying out acts of kindness. Mrs Hurst set us the challenge to achieve one act of kindness this afternoon. If we have achieved this, then we will have brought a certificate home with us. The challenge does not end there. Mrs Hurst has asked us to show kindness and fill up the buckets of those people at home. Please send in any examples of this as we would love to hear about how our lesson on kindness is spreading beyond the school gates.
