The Red Team

On the afternoon of Friday 6th June, The Gleddings Brass Group were invited to Rishworth School, along with Heathfield Brass Group for a Brass Masterclass.

We were welcomed by Mr Wood and Mr Lynch and the group was divided into two. Mr Wood took first and second cornets and Mr Lynch took bass instruments to practise separately.
The groups then came together for extra rehearsals.
We were joined by the Rishworth Dance Orchestra for an evening concert which was held  for parents and friends.
An enjoyable time was had by all.

The children are welcomed.

The children were split into rehearsal groups.
 

Full rehearsal.

The children perform before family and friends.

Now that summer is here, the Nursery children have spent a lot of time playing and working outdoors in the sunshine.

It is great fun eating our morning snack outside in our nursery garden.

We love to learn about pouring and floating in our outdoor water tray.

Now the willow structure has grown we can use it for playing Hide and Seek. Do you think our friends will find us?

The Nursery children and teachers held a meeting to discuss what we would need for our summer garden activities. Here, you can see that one of our little girls recorded a list on our whiteboard.

We planted many different varieties of seeds. I wonder who will grow the tallest sunflower?
 

One of our recent visitors to Nursery was the vet. She brought along two of her friends - Kevin and Oliver. It was so exciting stroking the lambs and we even had turns at pretending to be the vet.

Kevin had a very fast heartbeat.
 

Oliver feels all “warm and cuddly”.

We have been learning about lots of different dinosaurs. Do you like the one that we designed and built from an old carton?
Raj has given him a fantasic name - “Trisophaurus”. He’s a very friendly dinosaur.

Form III have been studying the unit ‘Helping plants grow well’ in their science lessons. 
We sowed some wild flower seeds. When they had grown, we planted them in a corner of the field which has been left to grow naturally so it looks like a small meadow.
The flowers should attract bees, butterflies and other insects.
The children are learning about the importance of developing and respecting the local natural environment.

This is a photo of an established meadow. We hope our meadow will look this good.

Form III are studying Light and Shadows as part of their science work.

They used some simple equipment to record the ‘movement’ of the sun around the sky in order to make sun dials.

They discovered that shadows change in position and length throughout the day.
