Sardinia sun and fun!!

Yesterday morning the children went to school in Sardinia and did country dancing, singing and taught and translated the Comenius song (which Coalway had written and composed) to French and Italian. The children had lots of fun at school. In the afternoon they went sightseeing and visited another beach. The weather has been very sunny and the children have had lots of delicious Italian food including pizza and pasta. Today the children are returning to the school to take part in a Comeius sports day.

We are now looking forward to seeing them all back in school on monday and hearing all about it~ hopefully not with too much of a tan!!

Sardinia

Mrs Mason has been recieving lots of texts from Sardinia reporting what a fab time the children (and staff) are having! The flight over was fine and the children had a meal in their hotel before going to bed. This morning they have all visited the school in Sardinia and are having a lovely afternoon on the beach.
Will keep you updated!!

Planning our Doctor Who scripts on World Book Day - great fun!

Mapping out a Journey!

In Literacy, Year 3 have been looking at the features of different Myths. To help us understand the journey that different characters undertake we had fun chalking out story maps on the playground. This will help us when we write our own Myths next week.

Thank you Harry Tuffins!

Coalway Junior School Gardening Club have been really fortunate to receive a £350 donation through the Nisa Making a Difference Locally charity. This was presented to the club by the store manager of our local Tuffins store during asssembly.
This will be a great help and enable the Gardening club to grow a larger variety of produce as they can now afford to purchase a fantastic new green house.
Thank you so much.

Year 3 Visit To Dean Heritage Centre

Year 3 had a super day visiting Dean Heritage Centre as part of their work on Forest Capers. We learnt what is what like to live in the Forest of Dean years ago and how this compared to life in the area today.

During our visit we took part in various different workshops; learning about the life of a miner, the life of a charcoal burner as well as visiting the Victorian cottage and the museum.
Once back at school we used this information to inspire our report writing and completed some fantastic reports on charcoal burning.

Having a fabulous time in France

We are having a wonderful time in France. The children went up the Eiffel Tower and then went on their boat trip down the Seine. We have been very lucky with the weather. Beautiful sunshine yesterday so we have some fantastic photo's. Off to Disney tomorrow and then home Tuesday morning.

Love from the Coalway Crew in France XXXX
