Art Club in year 1!

Today in art club we looked at autumn trees. We drew them and then we went outside to look for autumn leaves. We then did some leaf rubbings using autumn colours.

Whole School French Celebration: Bastille Day

We had a fantastic time in the Summer Term when the school learned about the French celebration of Bastille Day.  We learned about the history and the significance of the celebration in modern France.  We experienced a taste of French culture by dressing up in the colours of the Tricolore flag, tasting brioche and pain au chocolat, sharing a picnic with our friends and playing boule.

Year 6 at Arthog

Miss Hedges has shared the following about her group this week:

I have had the most amazing day with my group. Every single child has pushed themselves out of their comfort zone and tackled the canoeing and gorge walking with a positive attitude. These children have honestly made me the proudest teacher. They have been a joy to spend the week with. HUGE shout out to Ava! She has joined in with almost every activity including scrambling with a broken toe! (Previous injury, not an Arthog injury!) She has been a superstar and I am so proud of her.

Year 6 at Arthog

The children in year 6 are continuing to have a great time at Arthog. Here is what Mr Perry has shared about his group:

What a brilliant day had all round by my group. The windy conditions meant that we did our hill walk. The entire group battled                

wind, rain and steep climbs to reach the summit in Coed y Brenin Forest Park. On our trip, we had to use our map reading skills as well as the picture clues on the sheet. At halfway, we had the luxury of stopping and sheltering in a woodland cabin to have our lunch. 

After a long, tiring trip, we returned to the centre to gather dry waterproofs and a litter picking kit. We then visited the local beach and searched for litter to dispose of. We then had 20 minutes exploring the rock pools and playing on the water edge. A superb day all round and I was incredibly proud of the perseverance my group showed. A massive well done!

Well done Reception!

The Reception staff would like to say a huge well done to all of our wonderful Reception children this week for settling in to school so wonderfully. We are so proud of how well they have come in in the morning, how well they are sitting together on the carpet and how well they have all been with the new routines in school. We can’t wait to see everyone for our first full week next week.

Special Prayer

Lord Jesus, We ask for Your help as we begin this new school year. Allow us to experience Your presence in the many blessings You put before us. Open our eyes to the new challenges and exciting opportunities that this new school year brings. Open our hearts and minds to new friends and new teachers.

Amen

Special Prayer

We have had assemblies this week about keeping promises and telling the truth. We read The Boy Who Cried Wolf and then shared this prayer:

 

Loving God, help us to keep our promises.

Make us wise in the promises we make.

Help us all to be trustworthy people,

so that we can live together in love and harmony.

Amen.
