The children in Pre-School have had a wonderful start to the new term as you can see from all these gorgeous photographs. Activities enjoyed already have included daily class calendar time, sharing books together, enjoying construction and, a very magical time singing our focus rhyme of the week Twinkle Twinkle Little Star in the dark complete with fairy lights! In addition the children have had the opportunity to experience remote learning through zoom specialist lessons in French, PE and Music. As you can see 2021 is already proving to be fun and exciting for the Pre School!

This week Form 3 have been writing character descriptions based on the character of ‘Grandma’ from George’s marvellous medicine. The children brainstormed ideas, focusing on powerful adjectives, similes and quotations and then wrote their descriptions.

Mrs Ola and I have been immensely proud of the work they have produced. Well done Form 3.

Below are some examples of our character descriptions:

Grandma is as stinky as a trash bin. She is a grumpy old hag and as old as an ancient artefact. Unblinking eyes, and a frosty smile, she is as skinny as a skeleton. She is disagreeable with George, Grandmother is even more horrible than Georges worst nightmare.

 As always, she is extremely wicked and rude.  She is as skinny as a spiders leg and as lazy as a sloth. Wicked eyes and a small puckered up mouth like a dog’s bottom.

 Usually Grandma’s are lovely and kind. However this one she’s as stubborn as a verruca. She was always ‘grumbling, grouching, griping, grousing’ at George. Her bright wicked eyes were always staring at George creepily.
