Chauncy Community Day - Years 1 and 2

Today the members of Hargreaves, Butterworth and Potter were fortunate enough to go to Chauncy school to take part in their community day.

The first activity was the same for all three classes. The children learnt about the history of pizza and then made their own mini pizza, they talked about eating 5 fruit and vegetables a day, made a side salad and then to finish up made a chocolate coated banana with sprinkles on. Fletcher said that he had had the most amazing day and Archie loved making his own pizza. Mason was very pleased to be able to put pepperoni onto it.

Dicing, slicing, grating and generally making a mess with salad vegetables!

After they had made these, we had a 20 minute playtime on the field, before returning for the children to eat the fruits of their labour. They all thoroughly enjoyed making their own lunch.

In the afternoon, the three classes separated and undertook their own activities. Hargreaves had a fun afternoon creating their own mystical animal, giving it characteristics and then playing a top trumps type battle with different partners using their own creatures. The ultimate winner was Jessica. Daniel loved making his creature and Amy wanted hers to be 3D.

Potter and Butterworth, were elsewhere in the afternoon and I will update this when I know more about what they did. Year 3 and 4 were also at Chauncy and had their own fun filled day.

Thanks to the staff and students for providing us with a unique chance to have fun and learn at a different school, with different people.
