Tidalik's friends

Children looked at the Australian dream story of Tiddalik the greedy frog. They then used boxes and other junk modelling materials to create the different animals that appeared in the story.  They also had to create passports for the animals describing what they looked like and how they moved.

Kandinsky

The children spent the first three weeks of term looking at the artist Kandinsky. They explored his work and described what they could see in his pictures. 

They also made up there own stories about what could happen if they jumped inside one of his paintings.  They had some marvellous ideas.  

They then had a go and creating their own pictures in the Kandinsky style.  They used a range of different mediums and materials to create a wide range of pictures.

 

Musical assembly

The children were very lucky this have term to have a visit from a group called earth song. They played lots of different instruments and got the children to join in.  The children had great fun.

Fantastic dancers

Some of hedgehogs had the opportunity to go to diss high school today and take part in a dance festival along side other local schools. They were very excited and had a fantastic time.  Well done to all who took part . 

An assortment of animals

At the end of last week the children had great fun making animal masks.  They painted the face of an animal they would find in the rainforest, thinking carefully about what colours they needed to use.
