This morning Rowan Tree Primary School have welcomed Will into school for a live performance of Punch and Judy to further enhance our Design and Technology topic ‘Puppets’. Pupils were taken on an exciting and comical adventure through the use of animated puppets and interactive story telling.
Fir and Cedar went to SPACE in Preston on Tuesday. They all enjoyed exploring the soft play and ball pool, relaxing under the lights, and swinging in the swing.
Maple 2 have been learning about Monets artwork and how he liked to paint the outdoors. They have been learning how to create different scenes by choosing colours with purpose to create a bright or dark setting.
Well done everyone for creating such beautiful paintings!
On Friday some of the children from Pine had the opportunity to get out in a boat on Scotsman’s Flash. The children learnt all about safety on the water and how to use a paddle. Whilst on the water the children spotted lots of wildlife: swans, ducks, geese and a heron. Lots of learning. Lots of fun.
Birch 2 have been exploring landscapes in their art lessons. They have been mixing paint to create the blue sky and using a squirty bottle to create the clouds. They then created Ben Nevis mountains to add to their painting, linked in with their Geography work on Scotland.
Today learners in Poplar 1 have been having mathematical fun. Pupils have developed their fine motor skills threading beads. They copied patterns and then matched the number of beads to Numberblocks in the immersive room.
Pupils walked the whole way from Rowan Tree School to Atherton Town Centre and back (a whopping 2miles) to see the beautiful mural of Keely Hodgkinson. Keely is a local Athlete who at the age of 19, won the silver medal for the 800m at the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, breaking the British record. #learningeverymoment
