Y1-OAK
ROLL OF EXCELLENCE
My Roll of Excellence this week goes to:
Diyaana: for helping her peers in Maths
Divansu: for always presenting her work super neatly
and for the whole Oak class for doing their best in the sports day.
We have been super busy this week. Our trip to the natural History Museum was spectacular! The children learn a lot about dinosaurs. They had so many questions. If you have a chance to visit again, do please take them one more time.
The sports day was a great fun, even though our class was beaten by Jamaica! Their teacher, though, came first from the back!
We are currently in the process of making our dinosaurs Antony Gormley style. Watch this space for some photos next week.
Thank you very much for encouraging your children to use sustainable travel this week. The children also learnt about how important it was to go to bed early. Do please ask them to tell you.
We visited The Natural History Museum, took part in Sports Day and are in the process of making our dinosaurs . . .
All in all, Science week has been a really exciting week. Well done Oak class!
