Wild Place!

Wild Place!

What a fantastic day we all had! The children loved seeing all of the animals in Wild Place and I would say the giraffes were definitely a firm favorite. We had a lovely picnic lunch in one of their many play parks and the children enjoyed travelling to and from Wild Place on the coach. 

Here are some of our favorite pictures from the day...

The lemurs made us laugh, they were very cheeky and nearly landed on our heads!

We took off our shoes and socks and went on the bare foot trail.We walked over bark, hay, straw, pebbles and throughsome squelchy mud.

Year 1 and 2 went for walk through the woods. We were thinking
about what we could see, hear and smell.

Our trip to Colston Hall

Little Tim and the Brave Sea Captain.

What a fantastic trip to the Colston Hall to see Little Tim and the Brave Sea Captain. I think everyone's highlight was when we were all invited on the stage to dance with the cast! Here's a picture for you to enjoy. 

Term 3 - The Great Fire of London!

This term we have been learning about the Great Fire of London. 

We have had a super exciting start to the topic by burning a model of London houses in 1666. This enabled us to write an explanation text about why the houses caught fire and what caused them to burn so quickly. Ask your children to tell you as we learnt it and performed it as a class!

We have also been lucky enough to have a visit from the Fire Brigade this year. They taught us all about the important work that they do and this has been a fantastic link to our Great Fire of London topic.
The children had a really great time when they had a go at the 'drop and roll'!

If you don't have fire alarms in your home then you can contact your local fire brigade to come and fit one, for free!

Welcome to Cabot Year 1

Welcome to Year 1. We have had a really exciting start to the term, getting to know each other and settling in to our new routines. 

Our topic this term is 'Blast off' and we will be linking as much of our learning to this as we can. Please see the overview that was sent home to find out more!

Please make sure your children come to school with their book bags and reading records as we will be reading with them as much as we can. Any reading you can do at home with your children will be a great help too.
