Binsted C of E Primary School
Oak
Welcome to Oak class
Your teachers for the year are Mrs Norwood and Mrs Brooking. Every second Friday there will be a slight change as the lovely Mrs Andrews will be with the children all day until 2.30pm, after which time Mr Jennings will be with Oak class.
WELCOME TO THE SUMMER TERM
We love this time of year! Sunshine most days, time to be outside without our coats on and everything around us in full bloom.
As always it will be a term packed full of fun for the children. We are off to Marwell Zoo, fruit picking, presenting our first assembly to our families, inviting our grandparents in, having different pets to visit...and much much more.
Our structured learning will be;
- Continuing on our adventures in Drawing club
- Starting our Phase 4 phonics which will consolidate and build on all previous learning, encouraging the children to read longer words and a larger bank of tricky words
- Working with numbers to 20 and beyond, playing with shapes and sharing and grouping
- Finding out about great inventors of the past, plants and minibeasts
And of course there will be lots of play and seeing where the children's interests take us as they lead their own learning!
It's hard to believe that in only a few months the children will have completed their first year with us, but until then...let's enjoy!
VE Day Celebrations!
We made our own Union Jack flags, ate delicious jam and scones, visited the school war ‘museum’ run by our Year six children, found out some interesting facts about the war from rationing to Winston Churchill, created our own ‘Peace, Love and Celebration’ painting together (thinking about these words in relation to the war) using only items from nature that we could find in the garden and we learnt that Winston Churchill was an accomplished artist. At the end of the day we sang and danced to ‘You are my sunshine’ to our grown ups and the rest of the school.
A fun day was had by all!
Our lovely Grandparents came into our class for the morning.
It was a very special time for us all! After playing, exploring and sharing in the classroom we all went into the hall for a singalong! The children shared a few of their favourite songs and then we all sang 'You are my sunshine' together!
THANK YOU Grandparents for coming in!
A few memories from the Spring term, including ‘Bikes and Scooters’ day and when our families came to visit for the afternoon!
Handa’s Surpsie and Kenya, just a few of the activities the children were involved in. They’ve loved learning about Kenya...they even fancied a class trip...but Marwell zoo it is!
Spring Term's trip to the Winchester Science Centre
The children had a lot much fun exploring the Science centre! There was so much to do and see and they left no area unexplored. What 'normal' school day allows for a visit into space, handling a sheep's heart, crawling through an ear, building bridges with friends, using air to fire balls...and the list goes on. I hope the children visit again to explore with their families!
A few memories from Autumn 1
Introducing 'Travelling Ted'!
He loves to spend weekends and holidays with the children. Please record his adventures in his book and bring him back to school on Monday so your child can share his adventures with the class. They all love to see what he’s been up to!
