What a great week- wythnos arbennig!

What a great week for us in class 7- our trip to Newport Wetlands was a great success-the mini beast hunt, pond dipping, bird watching and natural sculptures was all great fun.....all in glorious sunshine, we were very lucky!
On Thursday was our turn to help with the willow village - it's going to be fantastic!
The NSPCC campaign us as the class as raised the most money...da iawn! We were presented with a lovely certificate to display in our classroom...
Our African mud hut role play is now up and running - we are all trying to balance a fruit basket on our head - it looks like Celyn is the champion so far....
This week's Seren yr wythnos is Amy Groves- a true star in all ways. Her knowledge about pond life at Newport Wetlands was amazing!

NSPCC- Full stop!....SOS- name for our mud hut!

The infants had a great afternoon last Friday - working out in our activity stations gathering points for our NSPCC challenge. It was all go- skipping, egg and spoon, weaving in and out of cones, hopscotch and others- the sun was shining for us and we all enjoyed ourselves.
Da iawn Isaac - seren yr wythnos- he conquered his nerves and sang a solo in the Eisteddfod confidently - well done!
We are enthusiastically learning about Africa, especially Uganda- and are in the middle of constructing our mud hut role play. Any ideas? Artefacts to lend? We are also trying to think of a name for our hut....thinking caps on, please!

What a fabulous day yesterday! What a great Eisteddfod- da iawn everybody for taking part so well. I was very proud of year 2 especially singing the song "Mynd ar y ceffyl" and reciting the poem "Fy Nheulu a fi". You were marvellous!
This year's Eisteddfod was dedicated to our friends at Sikusi Primary School...They too are proud of their traditions, culture and native language - and also love to sing ! We are enjoying sharing my photographs and memories in class - the albums will be available for any interested parents to peruse during open evenings.
Da iawn Maesybryn! Da iawn Dehewydd!
