Year 1 15.11.24

English

1AF have been reading the book “The Paper Bag Princess”.  It is a lovely fairy tale with a twist.  The children have been looking at different clothes and what they might say about the person wearing them.  We wear clothing for certain jobs, to show off our personalities, religious purposes and celebrations.   Clothes can show off who we are.  The children designed their own paper bag outfits for the Paper Bag Princess.  This was a fun, creative activity where the children got to show off their design talents.  Antoinette Faure

Castle Doors

Today, 1CH went to the art room to make some castle doors with Mr Johnson. They learned all about terracotta and how to create different designs in the soft clay. They used stamps, tools, and small pieces of clay to create and add detail to their designs. The castle doors will now go in the kiln for the children to glaze in the next couple of weeks.

Christmas Play Rehearsals are Underway!

We are so excited to be starting rehearsals for our Christmas play and have been enjoying singing the songs and learning actions this week. Today we even tried singing with a little LED tea light which really brought our Chinese Christmas song to life. Emma Bonwick

✨Christmas Extravaganza!!✨⁠
⁠
⁠The Christmas Extravaganza was nothing short of magical! This year’s event offered so many opportunities for our pupils to shine. From heartfelt performances to original songs written entirely by the children themselves, the evening showcased the incredible creativity and confidence that thrives in our school.⁠
⁠
It was inspiring to see such a vast array of talent on display musicians, singers, and performers all sharing taking stage in front of a very busy audience. These moments remind us just how special our school is, and how much our pupils have to offer.⁠
⁠
A huge thank you to all the staff who worked tirelessly behind the scenes to make this event possible. Your dedication and support ensured that every child had the chance to participate and feel proud of their achievements.⁠
⁠
Many thanks too to the Friends of Holmewood for the delicious mulled wine and festive nibbles that made the evening extra special. ⁠
