On Monday we had a workshop all about space. The scientist was sat in a big studio which made it more interesting! It was really good - we talked about Hubble and Nebulas and about the Solar System. We also talked about James Webb and space telescopes. The best part was when we played a space loop game at the start because we learned lots of interesting facts. She told us about infra red lights - we found out that a glass can't be seen using an infra red light if there is a hot cup in front of it!
Thank you to our reporters: Spencer, Charlie and Bobby.

World Nursery Rhyme Week in Nursery
Date: 17th Nov 2023 @ 12:30pm
This week the children have taken part in World Nursery Rhyme Week. The children sang a new nursery rhyme and completed different activities every day. On Monday it was Jack and Jill-the children painted Jack and Jill and later walked up and down the hill with buckets of water. All the children managed to do this without spilling a drop. On Tuesday it was Hickory Dickory Dock -the children sequenced pictures of the rhyme. On Wednesday it was Head, Shoulders, Knees & Toes-the children put jigsaws of their bodies back together and drew around each other. On Thursday it was Row, Row, Row Your Boat-the children made big boats from cardboard boxes and rowed down the Mississippi River, trying to avoid the crocodiles. And finally, on Friday it was The Wheels on The Bus-we made a big bus together and went on a trip as we sang the song.

It was great fun.

SPORTS' COUNCIL AUTUMN 1
During this half term, the sports' council have been extremely busy.
Firstly, we discussed which after school clubs children would like to have after half term. The children took this discussion back to their classes and fed back the results to me. The information provided has resulted a few new sports being on offer next half term.
Similarly, there has been a lack of sports equipment on the playground for children to use over the last couple of years. Once again, sports council members spoke to their individuals classes to generate ideas for what they'd like. After half term, some of the equipment suggested will be avaliable for children to use at break times during the day.
Lastly, our sports council members, along with several other members of year 5, have undergone training over the past couple of weeks to become playground leaders. This has involved them creating bespoke games and activities for Lyme students to play at break times. The final part of the training is on Friday where the children will perform their games that they have created for the Sports Development Officer for St. Helens.
It's been a great half term for the Sports' Council. I'd like to thank them for their hard work.

We have then added details to our Cave Walls (that we created in the previous lesson).
Finally, we added colour to our Cave Wall paintings.

This afternoon, Year 3 have been on a nature walk to collect natural materials for our Stone Age Art - just like people from the Stone Age would have done.
Then, we practised our art skills - seeing what colours these natural materials would make.
Also, we used lentils and pulses to create our cave wall backgrounds - ready for our final pieces next week.
It was fun ... if a little messy!
