School Nutrition Action Group

We are currently forming a school nutrition action group. This is a mix of staff and pupils who will be investigating ways to make the food in our school healthy. The group will be called S.N.A.G for short.

Food for life partners

We are currently on course to become a partnership school with food for life. There will be lots of resources that we can access if we are successful and are chosen to become a partnership school. For more information about this come in and have a chat with me.

Children Make Bike-It Dusties

Children from year 3 have been busy making dustcaps for their bikes.
James from Bike-It, the project linked to our school to make bike riding safer, showed the children how to make them using clay.

This is one of many activities in the Bike-It project.

Year 2 writing

Miss Allen says "I'm tickled pink!"

In Year 2 we are trying something new linked with assessment for learning. Miss Allen highlights our work with pink if she is tickled pink with our work. If she sees something that we can improve, she highlights it in green. This means 'grow green' and we try to improve on these bits of our work. Look at the picture. Miss Allen marked our Halloween stories about 'The Three Little Witches' using 'TICKLED PINK' and 'GROW GREEN'.

Krafty Kids at Roman Road

This week at Roman Road we have had the privilege of working with Michelle from Krafty Kids, designing and making some fantastic plates.

We started by designing some plates with help from our parents and family. On Wednesday Michelle arrived with all the plates, pens, aprons and much more. We were then shown how to use the pens to draw our designs onto our plates. The final results were fantastic!

We collected our plates on Thursday evening and took them home to cook in the oven. This sets the paint and varnish on the plates. That night, many of us had our tea from a personalised, individual plate. And to top it all off we learnt fantastic new skills and had great fun.

Photos to come soon.
