Reception had a wonderful visit to the cinema on Tuesday. We had a very wintery walk there in the snow which added to the excitement! We watched two Julia Donaldson short films –Ā ‘Smeds and the Smoos’ and ‘Superworm’. Both were brilliant. The children’s behaviour was exceptional. It was a fabulous trip!
Thank you to our volunteers who came along to help and also our Year 6 friends who also helped!
We are so excited that Spaghetti Maths after school club will begin next Tuesday!

Here are some ideas to help your child prepare
We are also asking each pupil to bring in Ā£1 for the childrenās charityĀ Speech and Language UK.Ā These vital funds will help raise awareness about the 1 in 5 children in the UK with speech and language challenges.Ā Ā You can either give Ā£1 to your child to bring inĀ or clickāÆhereāÆto make a donation online.

Reception have had a fantastic week learning all about Autumn. We began with an autumn walk around our school grounds. We loved exploring the leaves and trying to catch them as they fell! We enjoyed turning them into creatures when they had dried out. We used oil pastels to make some autumn leaves and have worked hard on some autumnal drawings. We also used cardboard tubes to make our own autumn trees too.
Year 6 were enthused with their recent writing unit in English as they were tasked with twisting a traditional tale into a story their prayer friends in Reception would enjoy. Today, they had the pleasure of sharing their stories with one another, introducing them to The Three Little Wolves, Innocent Locks, Little Rotten Riding Hood and many more interesting characters and stories – including dinosaurs and unicorns!
Once again, Reception were the perfect audience, listening with respect, showcasing their enjoyment and were able to recall what happened in their prayer friend’s story!
What a fantastic way to start a Wednesday!
This week Reception began our learning based on the book ‘Whatever Next’ by Jill Murphy. We had great fun acting out the story and have been busy making our own rockets out of junk modelling!
We want to say a big thank you to our PTA. We now have a set of class reader books for each class which will make sure a range of books are read to the children over their time at All Souls. We will be hosting a book fair in the new year and following this, we hope to be able to add to the Nursery, Reception and Year 1 class reader sets .
It’s been all about repeated patterns this week in Reception! We have made them in so many different ways within our play. Our favourite was making a repeated pattern fruit skewer!
In RE this week, Year 6 were tasked with showing their understanding of the Biblical story of Cain and Abel by retelling the story and its important messages to their prayer friends.
The children in Year 6 worked hard to do this in a way that made sense to their prayer friends and left them with some very important messages to go forth with which Reception were able to articulate very well!
Well done, Year 6 and Reception!
