Local Author Visit

Little Owls and Yr 1 Kestrels were very lucky to have a special visitor on Thursday; Zoe Tipton, Mrs Russell’s cousin and local author came in and shared her wonderful new book, Dibble Dabble Wood with the children and left them with a lovely colouring activity to complete.

Home Farm Trip

Tawny Owls and Little Owls visited Home Farm at Attingham last week. They enjoyed feeding the animals and looking around Mrs Downes’ family farm. Farmer Ben took us on a very informative tour and a real highlight was riding on the tractors in the big barn.

An afternoon down on the farm

Little Owls spent the afternoon learning about how a local dairy farm runs. After walking there, they learnt about the life cycle of a cow, met the calves and visited the parlour. Luckily, our farm visit landed on the same day as learning our new digraph, ‘ow’ as in cow! Wow!

Thank you to Issy, Tim and Louise Downes for a very informative but fun afternoon 🙂

A Visit from the Healthy Heroes

This afternoon we had two visitors to Little Owls, our Healthy Hero nurses. They talked to us about being healthy heroes. Together, we talked about keeping ourselves healthy, including washing our hands, drinking water, eating a balanced diet, getting good sleep, brushing our teeth, keeping active and being kind to ourselves and others.

The children had lots to contribute to the discussion:
Eat your fruit and vegetables.
Eat broccoli, carrots and strawberries.
Drink water.
I like to play on my scooter.
I like playing cricket, hockey and football.

We played a game called ‘A bucket full of kindness’ we had to pop a ball into the bucket when we gave a suggestion for being kind. What super kind Little and Tawny owls we have in our class.

Being a good friend.
Share your old toys with a friend.
Being kind with friends.
Holding hands.

Help people if they fall over.
Being saying kind things to everyone.
We finished with a ‘being active game’ moving our bodies in lots of different ways.

We’ve heard back from the police!

We wrote questions for the police officers at Shrewsbury and they’ve replied with a personalised video to answer them. We’ve learnt so much from each department and we’re very grateful.
