Year 4 and 2 had a lovely afternoon together, enjoying some buddy reading before taking a short walk to the Bayle for a yummy ice cream.

It has been like a mail delivery room on our Key Stage One corridor this morning! Year Two have been very busy writing letters of support and encouragement to the children in Year One. Year Two shared positive tales of their learning this year, their favourite trips and how much they have grown. They also shared their best subject....which of course was PSHE!! Mrs Semple then delivered these letters to the year one classroom where we sat together and read them. Year One loved

Year 1 and Year 2 had a fantastic day on their trip to the London Aquarium. We travelled to London by coach and, after arriving, enjoyed a walk past some of London's most famous landmarks, including the London Eye and the Houses of Parliament. The children loved spotting these iconic sights before making our way to the aquarium. Inside the aquarium, there was so much to see. We explored the different areas and saw sharks, penguins, jellyfish, rays and lots of colourful fish.

The themes of change and transition are very important at St Eanswythe's this term. In PSHE Year 2 found a fun way to explore this concept...whilst keeping very cool in the heatwave! We thought about upcoming changes for us this term like new teachers, moving into KS2 and a new classroom. How did these changes make us feel?

During this week all the classes participated in KIC theatre drama workshops. The topics covered were Sound, Shadow and Light, Journeys, Where the Wild Things Are, Transition, Secret Agents and Our Local Area.

Today many of James' Dance Club performed at the Quarterhouse. The event was the Wavelengths Community Dance Day, it is the second year this exciting opportunity has been held. Various different Dance Schools joined in for this event, which was a pleasure to watch. Huge thanks to James for organising and teaching our children the two dances, Colour of Love and Journey to the Past. We really appreciate all the children and parents that helped to make the occasion so great.

What a fabulous day we have had celebrating World Music Day today. We were so fortunate to be joined by Kevin Richards, the drummer from Gumboots Reggae Band, who led every class in a drumming workshop. The children did a great job drumming out the various patterns Kevin taught them and also at following a type of call and response signal letting them know when to start, break and stop. At lunchtime, Mrs Hodgkinson sang to the children in the hall whilst they ate their lunch.

It was raining confetti in Assembly today as we all gathered together for our last PSHE assembly of the academic year. Together we celebrated our individual achievements! A few brave individuals walked our red carpet and shared their success stories with the whole school - We had proud moments such as Leap of Faith from our Residential trip, to being good friends, to wonderful art work. After this, it was time for the teachers to celebrate all of the pupils at St Eanswythe's
