Hello sunshine!

We were all enjoying the sunshine, and having fun in the writing area, last week. The bench that we decorated last year, during our everybody writes week, has been very popular. Some children have been bringing their books into the area, because our outdoor reading area isn't quite as inviting. Perhaps a project for next year...?

Year 2 went outside for their sentence work several times last week, and were all writing sentences about dinosaurs! It's quite overgrown in the area at the moment, and it almost felt as if we had gone back in time! Luckily we didn't spot any dinosaurs, although we did see some birds...

The new school is also growing in the sunshine. Some children have been watching the activity on the site from their bedroom window! At this rate they might even finish by next summer!

The school council wrote the following report of their visit...

We went on another visist to the site to see the huge, massive crane. First of all we wnt through the wrong entrace and we noticed that two people had not worn sensible shoes!! The crane was really tall and could easily lift a car. We were told it could lift 100tons. We had to put our heads right back to see the top of the arm.
The man in charge, called Paul, said it was going to take 55 weeks, from the start to the finish, to build our new school. He showed us where the different parts of the school are going to be.Thye roof of the hall was very high, but there was no sewcond floor. The new school will be on one level...
We were all excited to see what was going on, and our very impatient for it to be finished.
