Last summer there were lots of events in Vernon Park to promote a love of reading through craft activities and storytelling sessions. This year the event comes to us as online. Nicky Rafferty, a storyteller came to school last year to tell us about Samuel Fox and we all made bunting of our favourite story characters . Nicky is tellng stories again along with lots of other things to do. If you are missing your library visits click on the link below for some fun activities.

Hi Class 3,
It is great to see you all getting on with your home learning! Here is some of your literacy from yesterday – well done Aoife and Marcel! Some great ideas about the film from you:
Don’t forget to send us pictures of your finished work so we can see how you are getting on.
Love, Mrs Flynn and Mrs Walker
On Friday we enjoyed celebrating World Book Day. Everyone look amazing – well done to all the staff and children who dressed up to make it a special, memorable day. Here are a few photos of nursery children and some from the assembly, where each year group showed the specific work they had done on our whole school book focus, ‘Flotsam’. Keep a look out in classrooms for ‘Flotsam’ displays coming soon. Who was the best character you saw that day? What book are you reading at the moment?
Nursery children made cameras out of egg boxes. Then they went on a shell hunt in the nursery yard. They also learned how to take real pictures with the iPads.
Reception children thought about all the beaches all over the world and looked at flags from different countries.
Miss Smallwood was Golilocks AND the 3 bears! Very clever.
Year 2 made underwater scenes

Rainy plays in Year Four result in comfy, snuggly reading! We are loving ‘The Treehouse’ collection of books. Have you read any?

The bunting the children made is on display, so why not go and have a look for yours. She is also part of free activities at the Forest Recreation Ground, Highfields Park, Wollaton Hall and Woodthorpe Park during August. Have a look at the daily events at Vernon Park.
