  We waved good bye to Junior 2 this morning as they headed off on their residential feeling very excited!

   

  It has been a great week at Gunthorpe last week with some more amazing writing across the school being celebrated.

   

  Infant 1- Georgie - for fantastic reading. Georgie is only in preschool but has such a lovely of letters and reading that she has already moved onto ditty books!

  Corey- for being increasingly confident at writing his name. Corey is also a preschooler but when asked to write his name on his work for the first time he did it without his name card to help him last week. Mrs Findlay was so impressed!

   

  Infant 2- Claudie, Teddy and Henry- for some fantastic writing including character description and settings. You all worked really hard to include exciting adjectives and conjunctions.

   

  Junior 1- Alyssa, Georgie and Jake - you all really impressed Miss Bottrell and Mrs Brown with your character descriptions of the 2 main characters in the book you have just read Manyam and Nyasha.  Alyssa and Georgie had included subordinating clauses, apostrophes and expanded noun phrases. Jake your presentation was superb- we know you can do it now!

  Tue 21 Jun 2022

  This weeks celebration assembly was today and it was lovely to hear all about the fantastic work the children are producing especially in English as you will see!

   

  Infant 1- Layla and Pippa had produced some fantastic maps using lots of the symbols from OS maps incuding railways, churches, houses and sea. Everyone loved seeing them.

   

  Infant 2- Wade, Winky, Archie and Sebby all wrote amazing stories about an alien and a cat - they are really humorous so do have a read below! 

  Kitty also was recieved a certificate for being the first year 1 to be rewarded with a special pencil for the quality of the presentation of her work!

   

  Junior 1- Mrs Brown and Miss Bottrell were blown away with the quality of Lissie and Ella S's writing.  Both girls were given a picture as a prompt but the descriptive language is absolutely beautiful. Again I would urge you to read it below- if this is what you can produce in year 4 girls we can't wait to read your writing next year in Junior 2!

   

  Junior 2- Oliver, Polly and Leon wrote some fantastic persuasive letters all about recycling. This fitted really well into the assembly we had on World Ocean's Day looking at how we all play our part respecting our world and making a difference.

   

  A huge well done to all children and we can't wait to see what everyone is getting up to this week!
