On Monday, F2 were surprised and very excited to receive a very special letter, not just any ordinary letter...
Waiting for them, in their classrooms, were 2 pieces of bark, each with a message from The Wild Things who would like to meet them!!!!
F2 have found some time, in their very busy timetable, to write their own letters in reply, which we will post on to the Wild Things. We are hoping to be able to meet the Wild Things in Dyscarr Wood! Watch this space...

Year 2 With a Didgeridoo
Sun 18 Jan 2015Year 2 With a Didgeridoo!
In Topic this week, Year 2 have been looking at Australia. Australia is the smallest continent and the largest Island. It is home to some of the world's most dangerous snakes! Miss Napper brought some Australian things in to show us including a boomerang, animal road signs, a story book and a didgeridoo. Everyone who wanted to, had a chance to have a go on Miss Napper's didgeridoo, it makes a really loud noise! We had a look at some pictures of what Australia is like. We all made a passport and completed a travel journal entry for our first week in Australia. It was lots of fun.

Myths and Legends
Sun 18 Jan 2015Myths and Legends
This half term, Year 5 have been looking at myths, legends and fables. During a Literacy lesson they began to create their own legend and Leighton began excellently! In ancient times in a valley in Cairo, a pyramid stood tall and straight by the mighty river Nile. Suddenly, a Cyclops threatened to demolish the majestic pyramid. However, a brave Pharaoh called Tutankhamen decided to stop the Cyclops. Even though he knew it would be dangerous, he was brave. He got a sling shot and a stone and blinded the Cyclops in the eye!
Fantastic work, Leighton!
