Charlotte’s Web Appears in 3rd Class!

3rd Class completed reading their novel, Charlotte’s Web. The class celebrated by having a Charlotte’s Web-themed day! 

They completed beautiful art work and play scripts which showcased their favourite part of the story. The highlight of the day was watching the movie Charlotte’s Web in class. Then they compared and contrasted the book and movie! 

 

 

2nd Class Get Their Hands Dirty!

2nd Class have been getting their hands dirty & planted lettuce and spring onions in the Secret Garden. There was lots of teamwork and they have enjoyed watering and taking care of the plants each day too. 

Hopefully we’ll get to enjoy them with our lunch in several weeks!

Thank you 2nd Class!

5th Class Sell Out!

5th Class did a fantastic job selling all their cupcakes last week as part of the Junior Entrepreneur Programme! With their businesses “Create Ya Cupcake” and “B.L.F.T.
