Stone Age Bag

Sewing is one of the oldest of the textile arts, arising from the Palaeolithic era. Before the invention of spinning yarn or weaving fabric, archaeologists believe Stone Age people across Europe and Asia sewed fur and skin clothing using bone, antler or ivory needles and thread made of various animal body parts.

As part of our Topic, we sewed Stone Age bags. We designed our bags, practised various stitches and made our bags. Look at what we produced.

Reading is child’s play thanks to new £10,000 school library

 On Monday , Christ Church School celebrated the official opening of its newly refurbished library.  

 

The Mayor of Ware, local c hildren’s author Alice Hemming, pupils, staff, the School PSA,  School Governors and  the Vicar of Christ Church  were  all there for the official opening.

 

During the ceremony, the pupils gathered together for a whole school assembly, led by author Alice Hemming.  Alice spoke to the children about her love of reading and writing  stories and shared her own book,  Bibble and the Bubbles. 

 

Alice Hemming donated a collection of her books to the school.

Nursery 24.4.17

This week we have had a pirate theme....

And we will continue with this next week.

Number work

We squeezed some lemons, limes and oranges and had a taste!

We also had the lovely author Alice Hemming in the nursery. She read us a story and we did a bit of acting!

Author visit

Hargreaves class very much enjoyed their workshop with Alice Hemming! Two members of the class were fortunate enough to act as the "voices" for two of the characters from the book. All the children enjoyed the story and making up their own characters for their own story. Thank you Alice.

Back to school!

We have been having fun this week in our pirate role-play area, making fish and hand prints for the new library display board and creating masterpieces in the craft/junk modelling area. Great to be back in Nursery! Our sound next week is "m" and please remember to bring in your proud clouds. Thank you.
