In Year Five this term we have been learning about seasonality and farming in our Geography topic ‘Sow, Grow and Farm’ and in our DT topic ‘Eat the Seasons’.
The week started off with Odd Socks Day on Monday 21st November and invited children and staff to wear odd socks to embrace and recognise difference and individuality, and show their support for kindness and solidarity against bullying.
Children in Need at William Byrd was another great success this year.
Today Year 2 engaged in an activity related to Circle Time. We explored several ways to show kindness and compassion to each other. Children were taking turns presenting their ideas about what good choices they could make to show how kind they can be.
On Friday, 11th November children across the school reflected on the importance of people who protect us and keep us safe, especially the ones who suffered during the First World War.
On November 9th, the Year 3 children made the journey all the way to Stonehenge in Salisbury.
On Thursday 3rd November, Year 2 and 3 parents and carers were invited in to see the amazing artwork that their children had made in Autumn 1.
Year 2 children were inspired by their trip to Kew Gardens and created pictures of beautiful flowers and plants using pencil, paint, coloured pencils, crayons and pastels. Year 3 children spent time learning clay techniques such as making pinch pots, coils and slip. They put their skills together to create pots inspired by the Bell Beaker people of the Bronze Age.
