Christmas Concerts 2023
No One Wraps Like An Elf - Our Christmas Concert this year. We worked hard learning our lines and songs and were really enthusiastic with our performances. We had an amazing time and are very proud of ourselves.
Art
We've been inspired by Creative Cariad and have been creating these fantastic drawings of ourselves. We have also been talking about how and what we feel 'inside our minds' and have drawn this.
Health and well-being
We have been working hard during our P.E lessons and are becoming confident individuals. We have learnt a lot about teamwork and are enjoying our P.E activities related to this. Gymnastics has also been a focus of our lessons where we explore basic shapes, jumps and movements.

Harvest
We talked about what Harvest means to them and the things for which they are grateful.
After that, children drew their own pumpkins, which we then displayed around the door of our classroom.
Seren A Sbarc Day
For Seren a Sbarc day we celebrated welsh by playing Welsh games and making Welsh games we can play during our Helpwr Heddiw time. We also sang some welsh songs.
Diwali
We have been learning about Diwali. The children used their Creative Cariad skills to make a Rangoli patterns using natural materials and worked in a group to produce a pattern. Great team work!
The children also followed instructions to make their own lantern.
Remembrance Day
For Rememberance Day the children created their own window display to remember the soldiers that fought in the war. They made poppies and created an acrostic poem about how we will remember.
