The children in Rowans have worked so hard this week. In Phonics, the children have been learning the new phoneme +a and +er and practised the action and letter formation.

Marvellous Rowans

8th September 2023A Barnes

Our new Rowans class have had a marvellous first week. We have welcomed new children who have joined the class for their first week in a new school. It has been lovely to see the children build new connections and take turns and share resources.

We have done lots of moulding, drawing, building and playing whilst exploring all of the areas both indoors and outdoors.

A super duper start to a new school year!

 

Acorns and Rowans Beach Party!

21st July 2023A Malone

To celebrate the end of their topic ‘On the Beach’, Acorns and Rowans had a fantastic beach party!

We danced, played games, and had lots of yummy food! Everyone had a fabulous time.

We have really enjoyed learning about the beach, seashore plants and animals, beach and sun safety, the history of lighthouses and much much more.

What a wonderful way to celebrate the beginning of the summer holidays.

This Week in Rowans

2nd July 2023A Barnes

This week in Rowans the children have explored pictures of themselves at the beach and explained what they like to do at the beach. The children have also sorted beach pictures from the past to present day. In science the children learnt all about rainbows and how they occur. The children were able to name the colours of a rainbow and then made their own rainbow. In geography the children used google maps to look at places of interest in the local area. The children had lots of fun finding our school, the nearest metro station, park and then they identified their own house.
