Sports Day ~ Foundation & KS1

A small selection of images from the afternoon Sports Day.

After their picnic lunch and ice pop (from the Friends), the Nursery, Reception and Year 1 & 2 children took part in lots or races, including egg & spoon and a sack race.

Well done to all the children for their determination & effort.  Thank you too to all the helpers we had - the Thomas Mills Sports Leaders/Work Experience and to all the House Captains & Vice Captains for helping with the races & stickers.

Sports Day ~ KS2

Just a few images from our morning KS2 Sports Day today.

It was a beautiful sunny morning for the event, and we're delighted to see so many parents watching and supporting the children on the track and field events.

We're looking forward to the picnic lunch and the afternoon event for Nursery, Reception and KS1.

Class LH and Class KH counting on teamwork!

Class LH and Class KH have enjoyed an afternoon of playing a variety of maths games together from board games, shapes games and counting games.  Year 2 were able to teach the year 1 children about the rules for the board games.  

Great teamwork everyone.  Well done on a fun and enjoyable afternoon.

SPORTS DAY WILL BE ON FRIDAY

As notified yesterday through ParentMail Sports Day will run on Friday due to the wet weather today.

It's Behind you!

Three of our very talented & artistic Teaching Assistants have been giving up their time to paint the backdrop for the Year 6's production of 'Aladdin Trouble', that will be performed at The Headmaster Porter Theatre, Framlingham College on 12/13 July.

We're very excited to see the final stage backdrop!  Thank you to the team for their  great work Mrs Sears, Mrs Lucas & Mrs Crittenden :)

Camp ~ Fire Cooking & more

The action pack week finished on Friday when the children returned to school, exhausted and hot, but seemingly having had a great week away and experiencing some wonderful adventures.

A few more images here of den building and cooking dinner over fires.

Lots more photos on the Website gallery  hitchamsframlingham.org.uk/News/Galleries/

Class LH are 'on fire' with their learning

As historians and writers, Class LH have been finding out about “The Great Fire of London” and exploring specifically what Thomas Farriner, the baker, would have said the morning the fire broke out.  We wrote different types of sentence about what he said from the bakery.

Harriet's command: “Stand back! Get out of the way of the fire.”

Gregory's statement: “My bread should be cooking not making a fire.” 

Emerson's question: “How did the little spark make such a huge fire?” 

Piper's exclamation: “What a big fire!” 

As historians and musicians, we learnt about the artefacts used during the fire eg firehooks, water barrels, leather buckets.  We rewrote our own versions using these and sang them in class at the end of the lesson.

As theologians, we have been finding out about the way that Jewish families pray and what they are thankful for.  We built Sukkahs and decorated them to be thankful for fruit, vegetables and friends.  We all designed our own Sukkahs using Lego and art straws.  See the pictures below.

As unique thinkers in PSHE, we ventured outside to the shade of the log area.  We talked about each stage of life and the changes from babies to elderly.  We shared with each other baby memories from our families.  Florie says that she was a much “tidier eater” than her brother; Freddie E said that his family recall him crawling “like an army crawl” on elbows without his feet being used. George talked about how he slept a lot as a baby. It was lovely to share these memories together.   

As geographers and IT technicians, we used ‘Google Earth’ to explore Framlingham to identify significant landmarks and other key features of the town understanding the ‘pins’ used to find out about the town.

Such a busy week in class LH with lots of new learning... finished off with great teamwork completing two jigsaws this week!!

 

Camp ~ Activity Day

On Day 3 at camp the children spent time river dipping at Whitwell and also had the opportunity to learn Archery.

Camp ~ More news from Norfolk

As well as visiting the seals at Blakeney yesterday, the children spent the afternoon at Wells-Next-The-Sea - what glorious weather they had.

Later back at camp they all had a taster of a fabulous camp cake made by one of the parents.

Walkabout!

Gosh! What a lot of families came in to the School today for our Walkabout!

It was great to see so many of the children show off their classes and the whole school to their parents, carers or grandparents.

We hope you all enjoyed seeing the room displays, and the children's work and all the other aspects of the school like our fabulous non-fiction library.

What impressed you the most on your Walkabout? Tell us in the comments on the School Facebook page https://www.facebook.com/Fram.SRH.Primary/
