We have had
a very busy time recently. The children enjoyed their flight to Spain with
Captain Matthew and Co-Pilot Dawson. When they landed in Spain the children
enjoyed participating in flamenco dancing and playing Spanish musical
instruments. They arrived safely back at St. Chad’s, having their passports
stamped.
Mr. Knight
and his squire Holly, visited the Foundation Stage. The children really enjoyed trying
on pieces of armour and chain mail! Mr. Knight was very impressed with the
children’s knowledge and understanding of castles and armour.
On Friday 1st
May the children embarked on
their trip along the canal in Uppermill, on the ‘Pennine Moonraker’ barge. This
opportunity for learning outside the classroom, reinforced the learning inside
the classroom, facilitated by Mrs. Wood on canals. Everyone had a wonderful
time!
During the
afternoon the children took part in ‘May Day’ celebrations, by joining in with
dancing around the ‘Maypole’ led by Miss Dunkerley and the Year 4 and 5
children.
