Our super chefs in Year 1 learned how to make delicious fruit kebabs as part of their Healthy Eating topic. In their Design and Technology lesson, they watched and listened carefully to their teacher so that they understood the     instructions to carefully prepare a selection of tasty fruits.

We have been learning early programming concepts, exploring individual commands and predicting the outcome of programs when using Bee-Bots. We thought about the commands needed to move the robot from one place to another on the mat, then we tested our algorithms and fixed any bugs that occurred. 

In year 1, we have been making fruit kebabs, learning how to cut ingredients safely and prepare fruit skewers hygienically.

​We had a lot of fun and they tasted amazing!

Year 1 brought in so many delicious products for our Harvest collection. Thank you!

Year 1 had a great time in the forest school, looking at signs of autumn. We were able to spot the changing in colour of the leaves, sycamore helicopter seeds falling from the trees and even a squirrel hiding food for the winter.   ​

We had fun doing the Dragon dance on Chinese New Year. A visitor told us the story about why Chinese people wear red clothes on Chinese New Year. We also tasted some delicious Chinese food and made some lanterns.

​In Science we are learning about plants. We went on a local trip to the Therapeutic garden and Ladywell Park to identify and name some common garden and wild plants, including deciduous and evergreen trees.

Year One had an exciting opportunity to watch chicks hatch live!

We showed the values of love, respect and responsibility by feeding them and keeping their box clean for two weeks.
