A message from the children in school

After seeing our staff video message, some of the children in school wanted to write messages to their teachers, classes and family members. We really enjoyed putting this video together. There were a lot of laughs and retakes involved! Enjoy!

Lockdown song challenge

Lockdown has been something totally new for all of us. It has never happened before in our lifetimes. You must have been experiencing an extremely different way of life so I thought it would be a good opportunity to write a song.

Challenge
1) Write lyrics to a song all about lockdown. Think about what has been happening in the country (e.g. shops, schools, family time…).

2) Come up with a rhythm for your song. Maybe include rhyme to help you? You could always write a rap.

3) If you’re at home, perform your song to your family. If you’re at school, perform your song to the other children in school.

Please send a photograph of your lyrics to me at rebecca.richards@taw.org.uk along with your name and your base. I can then add it to your year group’s page.

I am excited to see your lyrics!

VE Day music and drama

On VE Day, the children learnt Makaton for the song “We’ll meet again”, quoted Winston Churchill and released planes to symbolise the end of the war. We were extremely impressed with how much the children cared about making this day special. Well done!

60 Second Active Challenges

Are you up for the challenge?

Each day this week I’d like you to have a go at a 60 second active challenge. Time 60 seconds and see how high you can score! What personal best can you achieve? Can you even achieve bronze, silver or gold?

Monday: Around the World Challenge Miss Whitehouse’s score: 36 (I used a pillow)

Tuesday: Tuck In Tuck Out Challenge Miss Whitehouse’s score: 17 (tired legs now!)

Wednesday: Catch and Clap Challenge Miss Whitehouse’s score: 38 (I used a teddy)*

Thursday: Step Ups Challenge Miss Whitehouse’s score: 32 (try to get into a rhythm)**

Friday: Obstacle Challenge Miss Whitehouse’s score: 29 (now to tidy up!)

Keep a record of your score each day (or ask an adult to) then share with me how well you’ve done. Can you set a record for your year group?

I’ll update the post each day with my score. Can you challenge me?

Email your name, base and achievements (and photos as I’d love to see you in action!) to: april.whitehouse@taw.org.uk

Stay Active! Stay Healthy!

* for the catch and clap challenge I used a balloon first and scored 29, so I tried using a teddy to challenge myself and got a new personal best!

** I tried this 8 times! My personal best was 32 and my legs couldn’t physically move up and down the step any quicker! I’m very curious whether anyone can achieve silver (or even gold) because my tired legs are telling me that it’s impossible!

VE Day celebrations

The children had a fantastic time celebrating VE Day today. They had a really fun-filled day creating bravery medals for people of their choice, decorating tea-cups and launching planes to celebrate the end of the war. They all worked really hard and had smiles on their faces the whole time! Happy VE Day everybody!
