St Paul's Class

Welcome to an insight into St Paul's class, where we cherish every day to learn and love!

Our main class teacher is: Mrs Andrews

Our teaching assistant is: Miss Khan

Every half term, our learning is shared through our newsletters:

Class charity

In our class, we’ve chosen to raise awareness and money for Mission Together. This charity is important to us because it helps lots of people at a difficult time and some of the children in our class have friends and family who have been helped by St Gemma's.

Later in the year we will be looking at how we can raise both awareness and money for this worthy cause.

Everyone is welcome - our class virtue

At the beginning of the year, we were chosen, as a class, to represent the virtue of prayer.

Willow said, “Prayer is being calm and close to God."

Beyond the classroom

In Autumn, the pupils will be taking part in a range of enrichment opportunities beyond the classroom.

Engaging with our learning

Over the past term, the children have thoroughly enjoyed a wide range of engaging learning experiences.

They especially loved listening to me read and share my top five books with a hilarious poetry book called Uncle Billy being silly!

In English, we have begun looking at the story 'A River' by Marc Martin. It has wonderful illustrations and some imaginative language that the children have been trying to magpie and use in their own sentences.

They will be writing a story in a few weeks.

This term in RE we are learning about Creation and Covenant and the many covenants God has made with people in the Bible.

The children learnt about The Covenant God made with Abraham and discussed why Abraham was chosen by God to be one of his prophets.

So far in Art, we looking at collaging and creating textures. We went around the school grounds and collected different textures by making crayon rubbings onto surfaces.

PE so far is looking at invasion games, the children practiced some Rugby skills and are going to learn to take part in some mini games to develop their passing skills and co-ordination.

Maths has been fun! We learnt about metres and centimetres and used a ruler and metre stick to measure objects and compare which object was the longest or shortest.

Our topic in Science is light, we are learning to identify light sources and understand some tricky vocabulary such as reflect, transparent and opaque. The children also created their own Sun Safety posters and thought about the do's and do not's.
