Morning Leopards! Just checking in to say hello and see how you all are. How's everyone doing? It's been fab to see so many pictures of you all on your blogs each day, my giraffes are a little bit camera shy I think as they haven't sent me any photos yet!

This week in class, we had a magical and mouthwatering experience that brought our reading of The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe to life - quite literally! As we journeyed through C.S. Lewis’s enchanted world of Narnia, we paused to try one of its most iconic (and tempting) treats: Turkish delight (covered in chocolate of course) For those who may not know, Turkish delight plays a rather infamous role in the story. When Edmund first meets the White Witch, she offers him a warm drink and a box of magically delicious Turkish delight - a gesture that begins his betrayal of his siblings. C.S. Lewis describes the treat in such an irresistible way that we were all curious: What exactly does Turkish delight taste like? So, we decided to find out for ourselves. Some students loved the floral taste and asked for seconds. Others were surprised by how different it was from the sweet they were used to. A few brave ones admitted they didn’t love it - but everyone agreed it was fascina...
Hi Leopards, It was great to chat to some of you yesterday and find out what you have been up to. As usual, the lovely leopards have lots to tell me! Marvellous music making h as earned Estella the Blue Peter Music badge. Here she is, looking very happy with her achievement. Rightly so, this is well-deserved, Estella . The Blue Peter Music badge is especially for Blue Peter viewers with a passion for music. I wonder if this Blue Peter badge will inspire more of you to get your recorder/saxophone/violin out to work on your musical skills. It's a really lovely design too. Did you know that with the badge, Estella also received a Blue Peter Badge card to gain FREE access to over 200 Blue Peter Badge Attractions throughout the UK! Keep that card in a safe place Estella. Using maths, reading and problem solving, Leah has been solving mysteries playing her new favourite game, Cluedo. It's one of our family favourites too, Leah. We do love a game of Cluedo! We ev...
On Monday, Leopards class delved into circus life in preparation for their new book, Leon and the Place Between. We transported our senses with the enticing smell and taste of popcorn and donuts and were enthralled by the incredible stunts we saw on screen. The children were overflowing with incredible vocabulary and we used that to help us come up with phrases to persuade people to come to our circus. We used these persuasive phrases whilst dresses as ringmasters and clowns then applied them in our poster writing. We also had chance to practice our own circus skills (although Mrs Beswick is considerably better than Mrs Chapman at juggling!)
Because I can't do cooking at school tonight, I am going to try and make some cheesy potato skins by my self.
