Geography fieldwork in Hodnet

Class 1 went for a walk through Hodnet using OS maps. We looked at the symbols and colours on the map to find the features in the village.

Reading maps in Forest School

As part of our Geography topic, we have been looking at maps of the local area and features of maps. We used maps of the Forest School area to find key features. We used a key to find features and talked about the symbols used on maps.

A crime scene in Class 1!

Class 1 returned from assembly to find a crime scene in their classroom!  The area was cordoned off whilst the incident was investigated.

Class 1 found three bowls of porridge,  three chairs, a broken bed, a doll, a dress and a curl of blond hair.

 

If anybody knows who may have been in the classroom, please come immediately to Class 1!

 

Seaside Holidays in the Past

Class 1 have been learning about seaside holidays during the Victorian times. We have made a black and white film to show activities that people might have taken part in at the beach.

Sewing fish puppets

Class 1 have been making fish puppets. We first learnt to sew using a piece of felt before joining two pieces of felt together. Then we completed our fish puppets using our skills.

Uniform

A reminder that full uniform is expected at all times. Even though we are approaching the end of term, that shouldn’t mean that we let pride in our uniform standards slip.  We wear our Hodnet blue, to show that we are part of our school team, we are smart, proud and ready to learn. We are also adhering to our school rules and values by wearing the correct uniform, as it is a school policy to wear it.

Uniform is a fundamental part of most schools and other organisations procedures, ensuring communities are unified. Our children will find high expectations of uniform standards right through their educational career, so we aim high from the beginning.

We also recognise that our children require parental support to ensure they are adhering to our uniform policy. Thank you to parents and families for your cooperation with this. 

Uniform Policy 2024 26

We have lots of uniform free to families due to the high number of good quality donations that we receive. Please pop into the lobby to take a look of you would like some.
