We are now exactly halfway through our school year. Wishing you all a welcome Half Term break, hoping the weather behaves 🤣
Snowy Owls finished off their Antarctica topic with a special ‘Antarctica Day’ on Thursday. They made floor maps and planned a journey to the South Pole, mapping their route across the globe. They made penguin masks, binoculars and expedition kits which contained all the things they might need. We had loads of fun!

Well, with only 1 week left to go until a half term break, here are some of the things we’ve been up to around the school.

Tawny Owls created story maps that they did for their fairy tales work.
Snowy Owls have been learning about Queen Elizabeth II and King Charles III in history. They looked at photos and used their existing knowledge to ask further questions about the past and find answers. They also started to think about chronology by using a timeline to order photos from throughout King Charles’s life.

An excellent week for learning outside the classroom – we had Barn Owls visit Gressenhall and a special Viking visitor for Eagle Owls. We also enjoyed a whole school art afternoon making Christmas wreaths for Little Melton Church.
Snowy Owls develop their understanding of 2D shapes as well as spending an Art afternoon with the whole school making wreaths for church.
