  • Friday 4 July 2025 4th July 2025 Koala class have been busy putting the final touches to their wonderful seaside artwork.

The final results look great!

  • Wednesday 2 July 2025 4.7.25 This week the children have had great fun using the water to measure the capacity of different containers. We were very grateful for the cool down!! We thought about how water was much better to measure capacity than blocks or dice and then used the water to compare different amounts. We used the language full, empty, half full etc and had lots of fun. We then used the containers to measure amounts accurately comparing which was more 1ml or 1l.

As I told the children, their new teachers are so very lucky to have them joining their classes and they are all definitely ready for the new adventures ahead.

  • Friday 27 June 2025 27th June 2025 The children all enjoyed completing our annual colour run, running multiple laps of the Trim Trail.

The money raised by the children will be put towards our numerous school trips over the coming year.

  • Friday 20 June 2025 20th June 2025 The children have again been working hard, despite the ever increasing heat. This week our Drawing Club text was the lovely story of Tiddler. The children have completed their own codes and some dictated sentences. All have been very proud of their work. Our 'Poetry Basket' poem this week was 'A Grain of Sand'.
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Friday 20th June 2025 ‘Tiddler's Big Adventures: One Little Fish with an Endless Imagination!"
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Friday 20th June What a scorcher this week has been! The children have coped brilliantly with the heat this week and have enjoyed lots of summer themed activities. It was a shame we were unable to go on the beach trip but we look forward to taking them in a few weeks time. There have been lots of lovely discussions about their own beach experiences as well as what they are looking forward to when we go together. This tied in nicely with learning about beach safety which included learning about the different flags we might see at the beach and what they mean. We have also been thinking about what lives in the ocean. We read the story ‘Commotion in the ocean' to find out all the different sea creatures that live there. We have been learning a poem called ‘a grain of sand' this week which is an 8 line poem. We try and learn our poems off by heart by the end of each week!
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Lovely Lacock
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Friday 20th June 2025 What a fantastic week it's been in Honeybee Class! Despite the very hot weather, the children have remained enthusiastic and engaged in all our learning and activities.
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Meerkats spotted in Lacock! It was wonderful to be able to visit Lacock on Tuesday to support our learning about materials and The Great Fire of London. A huge thank you to our parent helpers, it was a hot day and we did quite a bit of walking but without your help and support these trips could not go ahead, so once again thank you! The Marvellous Meerkats certainly lived up to their name on the trip. They were able to relate all of their in class learning to our visit and their behaviour was excellent – a true credit to our school. Well done superstars – gems on the jar!
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Friday 16th June It's been a scorcher this week! It was such a shame that our planned trip to Lacock had to be cancelled due to the heat, but we're already looking forward to rescheduling it on the 16th of July. Fingers crossed for cooler weather then!
  • Friday 20 June 2025 Lacock came to Westbury! What a shame the trip has been postponed, however, we have had the most wonderful time in school recreating the trip ourselves.
