We are happy to welcome all our children back to school this week and we are all ready and raring to go for some super learning this year. Our staff at school have lots of exciting things planned for the new school year so watch this space.

Our latest production ‘We All Went on Safari’ is based on the book by Laurie Krebs and Julia Cairns. We’ve used lots of different techniques to produce the film; The children have worked extremely hard creating and performing with puppets, stop motion animation, acting and signing. George showed off his excellent reading skills for the narration and CJ did a great job of reading the numbers in Swahili. A big well done to all the children who were involved, you should all be very proud of yourselves. We hope you enjoy our film.

This week is a very exciting week at Rowan Tree as a group of our children head to the beautiful Lake District setting of Lowbank Ground on the shores of Coniston Water for a week of adventure, challenge and fun. We’ll be posting a video here when they return of all their antics so watch this space!

Here’s the lovely video from our Signalong Christmas performance from Early years and KS1. During the performance the children used symbols, signs and singing to celebrate al the wonderful things about Christmas time.

Here is the first production from the Total Communication Media project featuring our very own cast of superstars. With some fantastic acting, animation, artwork, narration and Signalong our children really pulled out all the stops to bring you this fabulous version of “Please Don’t Chat to the Bus Driver” based on the story by Shen Robbie and Jill Newton. See if you can learn some Signalong for different animals and join in with the story.
