Y1 Careers Week

We loved Careers Week in Year 1. We were lucky enough to be visited by a soldier from RAF Cosford and a paramedic. The children loved completing circuits and training hard like a soldier to the story of ‘We are going on a Bear Hunt.’ They were shocked at how heavy the soldier’s hat was! We also learnt some interesting facts about the life of a paramedic including how they drive an ambulance to save peoples lives. It has really made us think about the careers that we might like to do when we get older. Some of them are a teacher, a pilot, a scuba diver, a footballer, an artist, a soldier driving a red arrow and a vet. The future for Captain Webb children is looking bright!

Y1 Break the Rules!

Our Year 1 children loved breaking the rules today! They paid money to wear their own clothes and bring in a toy. They also had some interesting hair styles, nail varnish and make up to finish off their looks. As an extra special rule break they also had some delicious sweets!

 

Y1 Visit Attingham Park

In Year 1 we thoroughly enjoyed our visit to Attingham Park as part of our science unit on plants. We completed a plant hunt and looked for wild and garden plants. We found roses, foxgloves and cow parsley. We also identified different trees by looking at their leaves. We loved the visit so much we will be writing a recount all about it for everyone to read.

 

Y1 DT Parent Workshop

In Year 1 we have been learning all about dinosaurs and we have written the story ‘We are going on a Dinosaur hunt.’ As part of our DT unit we made moving dinosaur pictures to go into our book corner for our stories. We made sure our pictures had a mechanism to make it move. We used levers to make the tail and jaw move and sliders to move dinosaurs along the ground. We invited our parents and carers in to help us and we couldn’t have done it without them!

Y1 Read and Peel!

In Year 1 we love Phonics! We even practise at snack time. The children have loved looking for special friends and reading their word before they peel their banana.

 

Y1 Phonics Club

Our Year 1 children have been thoroughly enjoying their Phonics after school club this half term. They have loved playing games such as bingo and dominoes to practise reading and identifying special friends in words.

 

Piano Exam Success!

Three of our children have been receiving piano lessons from Telford and Wrekin Music. Before the Easter holidays they all took part in a piano exam and passed with flying colours! Everyone at Captain Webb is extremely proud of them. Congratulations to our musicians Grayson, Kai and Andrea.

Y2 Telford Sings

Year 2 children had the opportunity to perform as part of a large choir in Telford Sings. They joined up with many local schools, primary and secondary, to sing in front of a live audience on the Charlton stage. They sang a range of songs including ‘Fly a Kite’ and ‘Can’t stop the feeling.’ Everyone had such a lovely time and the children thoroughly enjoyed the audience participation. We are all so proud of our Year 2 children especially as they were the youngest there!
