It turned out it was a Penguin. It was missing and had got lost at our school so, the year 1 children found out about Penguins. What they are like, their special features and where they live. They created missing posters to help find the Penguin.

Who has been in our classroom!
Year 1 came back from break to find puddles of water in the classroom, muddy footprints and a fish! They we all very surprised. They tried to work out who or what might have been in the classrooms from the clues. Can you work it out?
Year 1 Anti-Bullying Day
It was Anti-Bullying Day in school. In year 1 we read a story called Mixed by Aree Chung. It inspired us to create our own art around the story. We drew our own cities and used finger paint to create the people. The children loved mixing the paint to create as many different colours as they could for their towns. They then turned these finger prints into people.
We also had a circle time about what makes a good friend. We shared our own ideas with each other about the things we can do to be a good friend.
Year 1 Autumn Walk
We went on our own adventure today. We spotted lots of signs of Autumn on our walk. When we got back to school we talked about where we had gone and what we had seen. We learnt about time conjunctions to help us retell and then write a recount of our walk.
myHappymind in year 4
Here are some year 4 children enjoying their myHappymind lesson. In the celebrate module, we have been learning about character strengths we have and how we show them. The children used some time to reflect about which character traits they have used recently and wrote about them in their journals.
Year 1- Remembrance Day
We have found out about Remembrance Day. Mr Honor joined our Year 1 assembly and told us about what he used to do before he joined Queen’s Hill.
Remembrance Day Poppies
Art club have created poppies in preparation for our Remembrance assembly tomorrow. The children have used the cross-stitch skills they have been learning. They’re looking wornderful!
Year 1 Christopher Columbus
We have found out more about Christopher Columbus this week. He was a brave explorer who sailed ships across the sea. He had to use special equipment to do this such as a compass and maps. He didn’t have google maps! He learnt to sail when he was very young. We wrote a certificate for him to celebrate some of these things.
New Life in Year 4
Have you heard the news? Ms Taylor’s fish have had babies!
Year 4 also reenacted a gladiator fight scene in preparation for our writing. We used verbs and adverbs to describe our actions. E.g. I’m swiping you aggressively!
Angles in Year 4
It’s been a busy week in year 4. We have also been learning about angles! The children are now able to identify acute angles, right angles, obtuse angles and reflex angles. We used masking tape and drew the angle onto the tables!
