  Mon 04 Mar 2024 Miss Cohen

  The St Paul’s Masked Reader is back for 2024.

   

  Today the votes were counted after listening to all of the Masked Readers and we found out that it was…Mrs Paine behind the mask of Sunflower! We cannot wait to see who will win! Who’s that behind the mask? 

• Year 1 enjoying the seaside

  Thu 29 Feb 2024

  Before half term year 1 had a UK and seaside theme day linked to their geography topic about The United Kingdom. 

  We brought bags packed with things we might need to take to the beach and went on a train journey around the UK. We explored famous landmarks, had visitors from Scotland and Northern Ireland, compared where we live to the coast, made scones to eat by the sea, made mini rockpools and built sandcastles among other things. It was a fantastic day!

  

• Caribbean theme day

  Tue 27 Feb 2024

  We had a whole school Caribbean theme day on Friday 16th February.

  We all thoroughly enjoyed Caribbean theme day where not only did they get to explore the different Caribbean countries and complete lots of different tasks but they even got to have a go at playing a set of Steel Pans; a musical instrument that originates from Trinidad and Tobago. 

  

• Earth and Beyond

  Tue 06 Feb 2024 Aoife O'Sullivan

  The children in Reception have been exploring Earth and Beyond at St Paul's. We used the story Whatever Next and Goodnight Spaceman to think about what it must be like to travel to space as an astronaut. The children have thoroughly enjoyed the Space Station role play area, creating rockets at the creative area and labelling rockets at the literacy area.

  We have explored non-fiction books and are finding out lots of interesting facts about each of the planets in the solar system.

• Collective Worship Training

  Tue 26 Sep 2023

  This week, our House Captains, Worship Group and Pupil Council took part in a national webinar led by Picture News on how to plan and deliver collective worship. They started off by reflecting on why children should lead worship and discussed how it gives them a greater sense of responsibility, develops confidence and leadership skills too. One of the most important things they learnt about was how to start with an interesting news story and turn this into an interesting assembly that will engage children from all ages. They are now looking forward to leading more house and whole school collective worship sessions about national and global news stories.
