Goodbye Mrs Byrne!

Hello,

What a week! 

We have been busy with our science, doing an experiment to see if we threw a beanbag or a cushion, which one would go further? We used metre sticks to measure and we all had a throw (under arm) and all stood in the same place to make it a fair test. We found out that the beanbag went further, it was a little bit heavier and easier to throw.

We also did games this week and practised our ball skills. We are getting very good at our ball skills!

We all loved party day, making delicious Easter nests which we had as a special treat the next day. Mr Marvel came to visit us, and we absolutely LOVED it! He was brilliant and we all had a fantastic time. We also ate a delicious cake to say goodbye to Mrs Byrne. 

We have been doing lots of lovely Easter art activities this week including; bunny puppets, Easter colouring, egg watercolours, making flowers, printing, making chicks to name but a few.

We also learnt about the Easter story during RE. We made Easter cards and thought about the symbols of Easter (New life/new beginnings) We also had a special RE treat, hot cross buns! We spoke about the different parts of the hot cross bun and what they all meant. 

The star award this week is going to Isabelle for always taking pleasure in her learning and always trying her best. Well done Isabelle.
Plop will be flying home with Mrs Carey for a rest and a bath over the Easter holidays.

Today has been a wonderful celebration. We were able to surprise Mrs Byrne with some special presents and cards that we all worked hard to make. We sung some very special songs to show Mrs Byrne how much we love her. We will miss you Mrs Byrne, we hope you have a wonderful retirement and we look forward to you coming to visit us, lots of love from Oak Class xxx
