AUTUMN TERM 1 2019

WELCOME TO A NEW YEAR IN SSC!

The children have all settled really well into this new academic year and we have already been very busy participating in a number of lovely activities, such as World Dot Day, the Macmillan Coffee Morning and the Sponsored Walk to help raise money for our new quiet garden.

This year in class we have welcomed 3 new pupils and 3 new staff members: Mrs Robinson, Mrs Fatima and Mr Outhwaite who are all really enjoying their new class.

The children have really enjoyed getting to know one another and completing work linked to our topic 'We are Special/All about Me'

We are really pleased with all of the lovely work and are looking forward to the next term ahead.

Keeping Fit in SSC!

The pupils in SSC are enjoying learning how to climb and balance safely in P.E. we are doing so well. We have also been looking at keeping our bodies healthy and how important exercise is, this is linked to our Science topic this term.

Fun in SSC for the Sponsored Walk.

The children enjoyed our sponsored walk on a beautiful Autumn day, the children did very well and we are so proud of them. We hope we have raised lots of money for our school's new quiet garden.

SSC Minibeast Hunt

The children loved going on our own Minibeast Hunt and looking for all of the different Minibeasts we have been learning about in our topic. We found lots of them and we had a really good time exploring under rocks and logs.

'The Snail' by Henry Matisse

The children enjoyed watching a video about Henry Matisse and then re-creating their own versions of 'The Snail' as part of our Minibeast topic.

Pancake Day 2019
