Kingfisher activities & gallery 2022/23

Here's a selection of activities we got up to in 2021/22

Party & ice cream fun in the woods

Seaside Day

Beach Huts

Here are the beach huts we made for design and technology. First we designed our huts and then learnt how to turn a box inside out using old boxes. We did this so we can recycle boxes and also be able to paint them. Finally we added lollipop sticks to complete the beach huts.

Commonwealth Day 2

Today we tried boxing, yoga, balloon volleyball and outdoor activities in the woods.

Day 1 Commonwealth Games.

Opening ceremony, wheelchair basketball, goal ball, netball and bowls.

Commonwealth Games Music

We listened to music from around the world and talked about how different it is. We were inspired by the musical 'Stomp' to make our own music. We made our own bands and used items found around the classroom and parts of our body too. We had great rhythm!

Sports Day

Yummy Harvest!

What a harvest we have grown in our courtyard over the last term. We picked and washed our strawberries and raspberries today and ate them before lunch. What a treat!

Jubilee celebrations.

Stinging nettle crisps - did you like them?

Cress head sandwiches.

Outdoor Learning Day

Castle Day

We had a wonderful time exploring Berkhamsted Castle.

We climbed the Keep and kept a careful eye out for any dangerous enemies approaching. We found the kitchen to make lunch, looked down the wells and even found the royal palace.

We also walked around the outside of the castle to see the double moat.

On our return to school we could take part in a Battle of Hastings game and try some Medieval Stew that we had made.

Easter

Today, we had a visit from Sharon Fowler, the children's worker at Sunnyside Church. She talked to us about Easter and asked the children what they knew. She then read a story and helped them to retell the story with a quiz.

Afterwards we went outside to make crosses in nature and eat some delicious hot cross buns too!
