Nursery

The children in Year 3 have made angel pictures which have been displayed all around Kirkby. Each day in the run up to Christmas a new angel will be displayed. Each angel is displayed with a letter. Collect the letters to find a Christmas message.

Everyone joined Mrs Smith and Mrs Day for a parade around Kirkby. We dressed in our pyjamas and pretended it was the night before Christmas. Despite the rain we had a lovely time.

Nursery children made Rangoli patterns outside YR, we put stencils on the floor and sprinkled paint on.

Mr Bradshaw mowed a maze in the long grass on the big field, all the Early Years children had a fantastic time trying to find the entrance, make decisions about which way to go and see if we could find our way out. Guess what – we did and nobody got stuck in the maze. […]

  Congratulations to Freya and James who have become our new Head Boy and Head Girl. Congratulations to Beth and Marley who are now Deputy Head Girl and Boy also. All of the children who took part in the presentations were very confident, producing powerpoints, films and superb speeches. Well done!

We have had a lovely and positive start to the new academic year.  We are looking forward to welcoming our spring and summer born children in Reception over the next week.  A special welcome to children starting in the juniors who are new to our school.

Well done to all of our children who took part in sports day this week. The weather was good and the children really demonstrated our school values today.

Mrs Gladwinfield will be spending the next four weeks in Kenya. She will be working in a primary school near Gilgil along with Mrs Highton. They have already been working in the school with classes of 60 children many of whom walk 10Km to attend the school.

In Nursery we are working hard to recognise our numbers, this week we put the numbers on the ball wall and had to throw the ball at the number that Mrs Chapman shouted out.

We put powder paint on a large sheet of paper, then we sprayed water on the paint. We watched the colours mix together to make new colours. We loved walking down the paint in our wellies to mix it even more and then at the end we walked through the welly wash!
