  • Our memories of a special year

    Published 21/07/23

    As we reach the end of a very special year, the children have reflected on their favourite memories of this year. There was such a variety of wonderful memories and so many lovely things to share. The children recorded their memories on summery sunflowers to remember and keep.

    Wishing you the most wonderful summer. 

    Have fun, stay safe and be superstars!

  • Sunflowers

    Published 21/07/23

    The children explored the life and artwork of Vincent Van Gogh, with a particular focus on his piece 'Sunflowers'. Using watercolours, we then recreated our own interpretations of this summery painting. 

    We hope you enjoy our gallery.

  • The Barnabus Project

    Published 21/07/23

    Amazon Class have loved exploring The Barnabus Project this term. This wonderful book tells the story of Barnabus and his friends who line the shelves of the failed project lab underneath the Perfect Pets store. These creatures are not "perfect" enough to be out in the wide world and therefore live in their little bell jars. Until one day, brave Barnabus and his friends escape into the wonderful world.

    This story has sparked lots of dicussion about all being individual but yet all being perfect just the way we are. The children then designed their own failed projects which were a combination of two animals. They wrote their files and diary entries as their new animals. This week, the children have enjoyed finishing our unit by sculpting their failed projects and homing them inside their own little bell jars.

    We hope you have enjoyed welcoming your new little pet into your homes.

  • Reading Bears' Picnic

    Reading Bears 🐻

    Today, Amazon Class were given their new reading bear friends to take home and read with for the summer holidays and beyond. After meeting our new bears, we took them outside for a teddy bear's picnic on the field, together with a bear story.

    It was so special to see the children so excited about their reading bears and I hope they enjoy reading to their bears during the summer break, remembering just how much we have loved reading in Amazon Class this year.
