Dydd Santes Dwynwen

In Class 5 we enjoyed making our Dwynwen day cards on Friday ready for St Dwynwen's Day on January 25th.

We hope you all liked your cards and had a happy and peaceful St Dwynwen's Day!

Football Coaching

On Monday 13th January, as part of our topic "Champions", we began a Cardiff City football coaching course in Class 5. Our coach is Luke and we have been having great fun over the past few weeks learning different skills with him.

Our course of training sessions is due to run for a few more weeks yet and we all hope we are going to greatly improve our footballing skills during that time. We would like to say a huge thank you to Luke as we have been having great fun during his sessions with us.

Busy,busy,busy!

We've had a very busy and enjoyable start to the Spring Term in Class 5 and to our topic of "Champions".
              We kicked off our topic in style.....not by going on a trip this time, but by having some very special visitors to our class. On Monday 13th of January, we were visited by

 Mr. Andrew Walker, the chief medical officer of Scarlets Rugby to talk about healthy eating and fitness. Even though we were extremely pleased to welcome Mr Walker, the children were even more excited when they realised he had brought a VERY special visitor with him.....the Scarlets and Wales centre, Jonathan Davies.

Both Andrew and Jonathan gave an interesting and informative talk to the class and we all had a great morning with them in Class 5. We would like to say a huge thanks to them both for giving up their time to come to our class and help us start our topic in style...."diolch yn fawr iawn!"

Strictly Come Tudor Dancing!!

As part of our topic about the Tudors, Class 5 have been creating Tudor dances. After researching moves and steps on the internet, the children worked in groups to create their own Tudor dance....all with great success. After lots of practice, today we performed the dances all together in the hall for Mrs. Murray and Father Edwin. Have a look at our dances....we hope you enjoy them!!

 

Year 6 Enterprise Week

We started our enterprise week with a visit from local business woman Carrie Elspeth. She has her own jewellery business based in Llandow. She was inspiring and gave us lots of tips for setting up in business. We all went bead crazy and made some beautiful bracelets to sell.

 

Mr C. Janczewski works for Business Connect and helps people to set up their own business. He showed us how to write a business plan and told us what we would need to do step by step! I hope he'll be able to help us when we start our own business'. Dragon's Den here we come!

Year 6 World War 2 Experience

It was a great museum. We learnt a lot about the Swansea bombings. The best bit was being in the dark in the shelter and going to the pub!!! By the way the powdered eggs were disgusting!

Young Entrepreneurs

Yesterday (Wednesday October 9th) saw Class 6 and Class 5 combining as a "company" to begin manufacturing products to sell in school next week. This work is part of our work on Enterprise and has seen the children brainstorming their creative ideas, discuss expenditures, profits and their customer base before beginning work on production lines yesterday.
        All children were involved making products ranging from glass bead bracelets, bookmarks and

Christmas decorations to plant pots and friendship bracelets.
                           All children worked really hard in an effort to maximise their profits in our sale next week. We all hope lots of parents will be able to attend to support the children in this venture and to allow us to make a good profit!
