Drama in Class One




Today we wrote pirate stories in groups in our literacy lesson. Then we acted out the stories in front of the rest of the class.

Healthy Eating in Class One



In Class One we have been learning about healthy eating, because pirates didn't eat a very heathy diet. We thought about the food pirates should have eaten to stop them getting scurvy. Then we learned how to make healthy sandwiches (and ate them).

Numeracy in Class One: 3D Shapes Lesson




Numeracy is always fun in Class One, but today we started learning about 3D shapes using some new equipment called 'Polydron' These are 2D magnetic shapes which link together to form 3D shapes. Can you name these shapes?

French Day in Class One


French Day was a very exciting affair in Class One. During the morning the children decorated hundreds of cakes for their 'Patisserie' which opened at 2pm. They worked very hard. In the afternoon the children learned how to do French skipping, play French cricket and then sold their cakes. They learnt how to count from one to ten in French and how to say the days of the week.

Grandparents' Lunch

A huge thank you to all the grandparents who joined us for lunch today. We were thrilled at the turn out. Some travelled great distances to be there to support their grandchildren. We had attendees from London, Kent and even all the way from Sheffield! A great time was had by all and the children so enjoy showing off their classrooms and all their work.

Share Day in Class 1


On 23rd September Suffolk Share helped Class One organise a special day where parents and carers came into the school to share a fabulous morning of activities with their children. I think it is fair to say that we all had a lot of fun and everyone made fabulous pirate accessories for the children to play with and learn about being a proper pirate.

Book Club in Class 3


This week a new 'Book Club' began in Class 3. Each pupil was given a colourful folder, notebook and pen. The book we are reading is 'Kensuke's Kingdom' by Michael Morpurgo. Ten pupils are taking part in the first book club at Charsfield and everyone is very enthusiastic. The book club is an initiative to promote reading at school by making it a fun, social event where ideas and opinions can be aired.
