We have been getting ready for Christmas! We learnt the story of the nativity and supported the Year 2 performance with our songs. We also had a visit from the innkeeper who answered our questions about what it was like the night that Mary and Joseph visited.

 

As well as our nativity story, we decorated the room and dressed up in Christmas jumpers and party clothes, as well as enjoying a visit from Santa Claus and our end of term party together.

 

 

We dressed up for Children In Need. Y1SG raised £21.00

Mrs Foulds showed us a magic pot. We all said ABRACADABRA and look what happened.....

We all made our own magic pots and we thought about what magic words we would need to make them work!

We had fun on sports day!

On Monday 9th June, a pirate came to visit the Year 1 classes at Meynell! She showed us lots of pirate artefacts and we had great fun drawing them, then guessing what they were used for. We even made our own pirate map!
