Year 2 Outdoor Learning
Year 2 have been thoroughly enjoying their outdoor learning sessions. This week they have been creating artwork using natural resources.
Year 1 Family and Friends Curriculum Day
We had a Curriculum Day on Friday to launch our new topic ‘Family and Friends’. It was a slightly different curriculum day (as we did our learning jobs in class), but we were able to complete activities set by different teachers from across the school who had pre-filmed lessons for us to do!
Our favourite activity was the Art activity where we created our own crowns. Take a look at some of the pictures of our work examples! We are also really proud of our ribbon weaving on the fence outside our classroom too.
Set Up Safe: Internet Matters
Internet Matters have designed a simple checklist to give families peace of mind regarding their child’s safety on the internet. You may find it useful to take a look at the poster below for guidance with this.
Week One in Year One!
We have had a fantastic first week in Year One! The children have been so passionate and excited about their learning which has been fantastic to see.
In class, we started reading a new book called ‘Here We Are’ by Oliver Jeffers which the children have really enjoyed. Inspired by this, the children created their own planet stained glass windows.
Transfer to Secondary School
The transfer to Secondary School admission round is now open and closes on 31 October 2020. Please follow the link below to find further guidance regarding the process.

We strongly recommend that you look at a variety of schools to help you to make informed choices. Secondary Schools often hold information events and Open Evenings; as yet we are unsure what provision will be made for this academic year in light of the Covid-19 outbreak. We suggest families keep an eye on the High School’s websites and will inform you of any further information we receive from Secondary Schools.
Writing Challenge
Join in with the fun….. We have some amazing writers in year 6 who may be interested in taking part in this challenge. The project, Saving Anksi, will launch on the 11th May. Over 3 weeks, children are invited to explore the story by investigating artefacts from museums, storytellers and artists as they piece together clues in the story world. They will share ideas with other children through the story. The story will also consider looking after our planet by exploring eco-literacy.
Your parents will need to visit the site and also help you to upload your work. It would be great to see some work from the children at Queen’s Hill appearing on their website!
Good luck and have fun:-)

Sing Up Song of the Week
This week’s Sing Up song of the week is called ‘Wiggle Jiggle’ and it is great fun! Not only does it involve singing but also some body percussion. Why not have a listen and sing along with your family!
Sing Up Song of the Week
We have seen that on the Sing Up website this week their song of the week is ‘One moment, one people’. This is one of our favourites to sing together at school! Follow the link below to learn the song with Beccy Owen. Mrs Sims, Mrs White and Mr Jones have been singing along at home!
