Making masks

Year One have had lots of fun learning about recycling this year. The Redbridge Recycling Team spent a day in school showing us how to use recycled materials to make beautiful masks. Look at the finished results!

Welcome to year one!

Year One children have settled into their new classes - they have obviously grown up a lot during the summer holidays. This term we are learning all about ourselves and so far we have sung songs about the parts of our bodies and enjoyed lots of activities using the five senses. We are looking forward to seeing the animals from Wellgate Farm, going to St. Paul's Church for Harvest and a drama morning with an expert from the drama centre.

We're sure that the children agree that year one is great!

Fairy tale rooms

The children in Year One were set the homework task of designing a room for a fairytale character. There was a great variety: the Three Bears' Cottage, Cinderella's bedroom, Little Red Hen's kitchen and many more. As part of their design and technology lessons, they then worked in pairs to create the rooms using recycled materials and fabrics. They are very proud of their work, as these photos show!
