We\u2019ve been so delighted to welcome back our children after our Christmas break. We look forward to a busy and enjoyable Spring Term. We are glad to welcome back our friends from The Baxter Project and Cardiff City Foundation.<\/p>\n
This half term our value is Perseverance, which fits in perfectly with our Action for Happiness this month, Trying New Things. We\u2019ve been trying new things and not giving up when things get difficult. We\u2019ve been making new friends in school and talking to people we don\u2019t usually talk to in our classes. Year 2 learnt to make pompoms and did a fantastic job. Year 6 had a first session with Forces Fitness, taking part in team building activities including a very competitive tug of war.<\/p>\n
We have some exciting new topics to explore this term. Years 5 and 6 are learning about Identity. They\u2019ve been talking about what it means to be us. Year 6 are also looking at some great science fiction texts such as War of the Worlds. Years 3 and 4 are learning about coal mines with their history-based topic, Pits and Ponies, Years 1 and 2 have an exciting space-based topic called Moon Zoom. Year 1 have been busy creating a class Space Station, whilst Nursery and Reception are exploring nighttime. They\u2019ll be learning about bedtime, people who work at night and nocturnal animals.<\/p>\n

On January 25th we took part in Mr Urdd Day, dressing in green, red and white, and taking part in a World Record attempt singing and dancing to Hei Mistar Urdd with schools across Wales. This exciting day was to celebrate 100 years of Mr Urdd, the mascot of Urdd Gobaith Cymru, who provide experiences to young people in Wales through the medium of Welsh<\/p>\n
