Bugsy

Our year 5 and 6 production this year was Bugsy, the children really worked hard to make it an absolutely fantastic performance. The singing was brilliant and the costumes and scenery helped bring the stage to life.

Exhibition Evening

It was lovely to see so many people attending our Exhibition Evening last night. The children are very proud of their acheivements this year. The school reflected this with fantastic displays of their work around the school walls and the children's Best Work Books filled with the pieces of work they are most proud of. Thank you to all that attending.

Year 1 and 2 Multimedia project

Year one and two have been very busy this week completing their seaside stories project. First they created a class story, then they acted out the different scenes from their story. Digital photos were taken of the scenes and the children used 2paint to create the scenery and characters, leaving their own faces visible. (they became the characters) We recorded the story using Audacity and put the whole project together in Movie maker. We hope you enjoy watching our stories.

Book Week 2009

Well, we are off to a fantastic start with a visit from an author, Jack Trelawny and Mrs Crichlow telling wonderful stories from her home country Trinidad and Tabago.



Mr Trelawny shared with the children how he starts creating his stories and how images can be used to create stories by asking questions about them. The children were surprised that he had to research things before writing about them. Lydia said "I would definately research before writing a story so that my story would be accurate."





Geraldine commented "I think Mr Trelawny's ideas about asking questions about pictures will really help me to improve my stories."












Class 1, 2 and 3 had a lovely time outside listening to Mrs Crichlow reading poetry and a story from the Caribean. They enjoyed how Mrs Crichlow told the story with great enthusiasm. The Lola commented "She read with happiness in her voice." Ben said " I liked how she used her accent to tell the story"

Come back tomorrow for the next installment of Book Week 2009

Here comes Summer

The summer term has begun and looks to be a very exciting time for all at Wells Primary. This week is science week and all the children are excited about the many different activities and experiences they will be having during this week. Caterpillars arrived in school on Wednesday last week and my, my they are growing very quickly. We will be observing their progress throughout this week and hopefully releasing some beautiful butterflys very soon.

At the end of the day today we had a special arrival of some eggs. They are being kept nice and warm in the incubator and we should be expecting the pitter patter of little feet by Wednesday. We will be posting some images and hopefully some video of our new arrivals so please come back and check the blogs later in the week.

First thing in the morning class 3 will be gaining some extra members in the shape of some fish donated by a very supportive local business called Woodford Aquatics.

We have some very special visitors in school tomorrow, our playground will become the home for some farm animals for the day. The children are extremely excited about this and we are hoping the rain will hold off for the day so the animals will enjoy it as much as the children.

Please check back during the week to see images and diaries of how our week progressed.
