  Children in 3CM @RF are preparing to write our very own Christmas story based on Kevin the carrot.

  In maths we have learned that multiplication and addition are commutative, explored arrays and which number sentences one can derive from them.

  Our new Science theme is light and we enjoyed retrieving information about light from our own experience. We tried to see with our hands which is not easy and we were most impressed when Ocean knew what a wrench is. In French we are enjoying learning about animals using digital book about a little rabbit who wants to know what his neighbours are having on their dinner plates.

  🚍✨ All Aboard the Naughty Bus! ✨🚍
  This week at Oakbridge Nursery we’ve been diving into the wonderful story Naughty Bus — and what an adventure it’s been!

  Our little learners have been busy:
  🔢 Counting along with the bus… “The wheels on the bus go round and round… how many children are on the bus?”
  📝 Making marks, drawing, and describing everything the Naughty Bus spotted on his journey
  🌍 Creating a Naughty Bus small world, where our mischievous bus drove right through pasta!
  🎨 Junk modelling to build our very own buses — full of imagination, colour and creativity!

  The children have loved exploring, building, imagining and getting hands-on with their learning. So much fun and so much fantastic thinking! ❤️🚍

  This Tuesday, Year 6CE @RF took part in a special workshop led by the NSPCC. The session focused on understanding personal safety, recognising safe and unsafe situations, and knowing what to do if they ever feel worried or unsure. The children took part in thoughtful discussions, asked sensible questions, and showed a mature attitude throughout.

  The workshop leaders commented on how engaged and polite the class were, and how confidently they contributed to the activities. It was wonderful to see the children reflecting on how they can keep themselves safe as they grow more independent, as well as how they can support friends and others who may need help.

  We are very proud of Year 6 for representing the school so positively and for taking such an active interest in their own wellbeing.

  Well done, Year 6!

  Year 4EB @RF had an incredible day immersed in the world of Ancient Egypt during a special workshop delivered by The Drama Hut. The company came into school and provided a very engaging, high-energy session that truly brought this fascinating period of history to life.

  Throughout the workshop, the children discovered lots of new facts about daily life, beliefs and traditions in Ancient Egypt. They took part in a range of exciting role-play activities, stepping confidently into the roles of pharaohs, priests, scribes and explorers. The Drama Hut team skilfully guided them through dramatic scenes, encouraging teamwork, imagination and confident speaking.

  The session also included lively songs and movement activities, which the pupils absolutely loved. There was plenty of laughter, learning and enthusiasm as Year 4 immersed themselves in storytelling and performance.

  It was a memorable experience that enriched their history learning and left the whole year group buzzing with excitement. A huge thank you to The Drama Hut for such a fun and inspiring workshop!

  Just before half term, Year 2RE @RF enjoyed an exciting trip to the local park to explore microhabitats as part of our science topic, Humans Including Their Habitats. The children were thrilled to discover a variety of minibeasts, including spiders, snails, slugs, and millipedes, and learned how each one is specially suited to its environment. In art, we have been exploring the world of printing. The children experimented with different objects to create some wonderful simple designs, developing their creativity and learning about patterns and textures along the way.

   Year 5ZS @RF had a fantastic afternoon stepping back in time to the Victorian era! 

  The children worked in teams, explored props from the past, dressed up, and discovered fascinating facts about Barnardo, Queen Victoria, workhouses, and more. 

  Such a fun and hands-on learning experience bringing history to life!
