R.E Trip

Purple Class have been learning about Christianity during R.E lessons and were lucky enough to visit a local church to learn about baptism.

Dog Trust

We had another visit from the lovely Dog Trust who taught us how to look after dogs and be dog smart.

History of Queensbridge

Our topic this half term has been 'The History of Queensbridge'. We found out that our school was built in the Victorian times and have been finding out what school was like for children growing up during this time. We had a pretend Victorian lesson where we used slate and chalk instead of paper, children could not speak unless spoken to by an adult and had to stand whenever an adult came into the room!

Here are some quotes from the children:

"I liked it becuase I liked using chalk and I liked how strict Dr Marozzi was being!"

"I think it was much worse to be a child at Victorian School, as there were no pencils and you couldn't go to the toilet and you couldn't use your left hand."

Julia Donaldson

During our first weeks back during Spring Term we studied stories by Julia Donaldson.
We read 'Room on the Broom' and used freeze frames to act out the main parts of the story.
Can you guess which characters our children were playing?!

Pom Poms!

During the last week of term Purple Class learned how to make pom pom decorations. They made it look easy but it takes lots of patience and concentration!

Christmas Show

Thank you so much to all the parents and carers who came to watch our fantastic Christmas Show. We really hope you enjoyed our class song, 'I'm Dreaming of a White Christmas'. Purple class worked so hard rehearsing their song and making their snowflake costumes. Well done!!

Christmas Lanterns

In Maths, Purple Class measured strips of coloured paper to make Christmas lanterns, which we used to decorate our classroom.
