Good morning everyone and welcome back to the blogs. We’re busy setting up our remote learning provision after yesterday’s announcement but for today here’s some home learning jobs for you to do which follow on from what we started learning about on Monday.  We are sad that we didn’t get a chance to properly say […]

Happy New Grayling Foundation! We have started our learning today by talking about our new topic.. Winter. It’s definitely feeling cold enough for it! Everyone has brought home a Winter Home Learning sheet with lots of fun activities to have a go at 🙂 Tomorrow a new Phonics letter will come home, letting you know […]

For our final day before the Christmas holidays, we began by watching the Damers X factor! We scored each competitor out of 5 and gave them all a round of applause 🙂 Later we enjoyed being together in our classroom, playing our new monster game and making it snow! What a mess but oh what […]

Today we all enjoyed some popcorn as we watched the virtual Christmas Panto! We all thought it was really funny, especially when Mrs Smith was the biscuit thief!

This afternoon we had a special visit from Mrs Smith who brought us some presents from Santa! We love our new Frozen puzzle, tool […]

Over the past few weeks we have enjoyed making some Christmas crafts like paper chains, playdough challenge snowmen (which then evolved into monsters and hedgehogs!), stockings, tree decorations and much more of the children’s own ideas!

Grayling 4 have worked with Mrs Rothman to create a Damers window display in Dorchester town as part of the window trail! Why don’t you go on a Christmas hunt for all 12 windows and see if you win the prize? 🙂

Today the children helped to decorate our classroom with a tree, decorations, lights and tinsel! We also counted all the sounds and tricky bugs we have learnt so far…. wow how clever are we?!

Today we were lucky to have a video call from our year 4 Junior Governors! They asked us how we were feeling about the Coronavirus and we talked about some new things we would like in school to keep us smiling. Some suggestions included a bouncy castle but we agreed on some more realistic things […]

We have also been practising our Christmas play a lot and the children have loved learning new songs and actions. Please remember costumes worn to school next Wednesday 25th and the following Friday 4th! Any problems, please email me via the Foundation email account 🙂
