What a busy half term we’ve had in Holly class. In English, the children learnt all about non-fiction books and the children wrote their very own Owl fact books. We also made a parliament of owls to fly in our classroom!

We have also been learning about puppets and made some finger puppets and stick puppets to celebrate Chinese New Year!

In Art this term, we have been learning about colour and pattern, including famous artists: Georges Seurat and Wassily Kandinsky. These Kandinsky style patterns look very effective!

As part of our Science work this term, we went on a materials walk around the school grounds. The children were able to identify lots of different materials and their properties.

They were excited to start our History of Flight topic too! Why not ask them to tell you some facts about The Wright Brothers or Colonel Samuel Franklin Cody. They learnt how difficult it was to design a successful plane and had a go at designing their own. Whose can fly the furthest?
