  This week, Rec LT @RF have been very busy despite the hot weather! We have been finding lots of ways to stay cool, including dipping our feet into tuff trays and pretending we were at the beach – it was so much fun!

  In Maths, we have been doing some fantastic learning. The children have been exploring number bonds to 10 using objects on ten frames, showing great confidence in their counting and number skills.

  We also enjoyed a very special visit from Year 5, who came to share some of their wonderful poetry with us. Reception listened beautifully and thoroughly enjoyed hearing the older children’s creative work.

  The sunshine has encouraged lots of calm and focused learning throughout the week, and we are so proud of how well the children have worked. We hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

  What a fantastic piece of artwork from Kindness 6CE! This term, our Art lessons have been inspired by the incredible work of David Attenborough, our learning about Nigeria, and the artists we have been studying. Pupils thoughtfully combined these themes to create vibrant, imaginative pieces that celebrate the beauty of the natural world, different cultures, and artistic creativity. We are incredibly proud of their enthusiasm, skill, and the wonderful outcomes they have achieved. Miss Elliott

  Year 6 Explore Nigeria!

  This term, Year 6 have been enjoying an exciting journey of discovery as they learn all about Nigeria. The children have explored where Nigeria is located, sampled traditional foods, discovered popular sports, learnt about famous landmarks, expanded their vocabulary with traditional words and phrases, and found out about inspiring Nigerian people who have made a difference around the world.

  They have been fascinated by the country’s rich culture, history and traditions, and have loved sharing the many interesting facts they have discovered.

  If you have any information, stories, photographs, artefacts, or personal experiences of Nigeria that you would be willing to share with us, we would be delighted to hear from you. Your contributions would help bring our learning to life and enrich the children’s understanding of this wonderful country.

  In Year 2 RE @RF, we enjoyed a wonderful picnic in the shade. We sat together on the grass and ate our lunch with our friends. After lunch, we played fun games and laughed together. Everyone had a great time enjoying the warm weather. It was a happy day full of smiles, friendship, and fun memories!

   Year 5ZS @RF have been busy exploring free verse poetry inspired by the weather this week!

  We experimented with figurative language, using personification, metaphors and similes to bring the weather to life through our writing. 

  To finish the week, we performed our poems to each other and to Reception, focusing on using our voices, expression and emotions to engage our audience. We were so impressed with the confidence, creativity and enthusiasm shown by everyone. Well done, Year 5!

  On Monday 15th June Year3 LT @RF had a ballet workshop with London Children’s Ballet. The talented teachers taught them how to leap, French ballet words, posture, the first steps. “It was ten out of ten,” said Luna. “I was embarrassed at first, but then I overcame it and felt really good at bout myself,” remarked Eli.

  In Computing to celebrate the international day of play we had great fun solving jigsaws and making pottery. In computing we have been learning to make powerpoints.

  I have also included a couple of photos of the children playing piano. We have loved learning songs on the piano in the music room.

   With the sunshine finally making an appearance, we were so excited to welcome our families into nursery to help brighten up our garden! 

  The children looked fantastic wearing green and had a fab time planting alongside their parents and carers.  It was wonderful to see so many families working together to fill our outdoor space with beautiful new flowers and plants.

  The children have already loved helping to look after our garden by watering the plants and we can’t wait to watch them grow each day. 

  A huge thank you to all the families who joined us and helped make our garden such a lovely space for everyone to enjoy!

  This week, 4EB @RF have been putting their persuasive skills to the test! As part of our English learning, we have been writing and preparing persuasive speeches to convince Mr Ball that we deserve extra playtime. 

  The children have explored persuasive language, rhetorical questions, strong arguments and emotive vocabulary to make their speeches as convincing as possible. We have been impressed by their creativity, confidence and determination to persuade their audience.

  Will their arguments be strong enough to win over Mr Ball? We can’t wait to find out!

  Year 1LB @RF had a busy end of last half term. We went on a local walk as part of our topic in Geography. The weather was glorious! We discovered the features of a local high street and compared them with more rural areas. Frankie also gave in a fantastic piece of homework. He made a castle as part of our topic in History – well done Frankie!

  This half term has started brilliantly with Year 1 taking part in a whole school mini golf event. We has great fun and the rain managed to hold off!

  As we approach the end of the academic year, Year 1 will still be busy with their phonics learning. We are continuing our theme of Kings and Queens and will be learning to use bossy language in English, creating rules. In Maths, we are learning about time and money and we will also be revisiting our place value skills. In Art, we are learning about Henri Matisse.

  We have another exciting, busy half term ahead, but we’re looking forward to it very much!
