Well done!
What a beautiful day it has been today.
The sun shone down on the St Alban’s Gardening Club fund raiser at Winthrop gardens.
A huge thank you to Miss Nightingale, Mrs Bushby, Mrs Skelton and Mrs Booth for organising such a wonderful event today.
An amazing £800 was raised, which will go towards a new green house for gardening club.
Thank you to everyone who came to support the event, donated prizes for the tombola and made such beautiful cakes.
FS1 have been very busy investigating materials this term.
We looked at how bubbles are made and enjoyed making a huge bubble.
Mud painting. Dry mud we couldn’t paint with, so decided to add water. We discovered it became sticky and so was easier to paint with.
The children said it wasn’t like paint it was ‘lumpy’ and ‘sticky’.
We looked at floating and sinking. The children chose an item of a tray, predicted if it would float or sink. They discovered that the heavier items sank and the lighter ones floated. Then they sorted the objects under the heading float, sink. The dinosaur they decided needed to go in the middle when sorting because it floated and sank.
As part of Year 1 Science, we visited Eureka Science Museum in Halifax. We had a great finding out about the human body, what happens to our food when we eat it, through a ‘Chew to Poo’ workshop and finding out about the community.
