Oak Class Updates

Welcome back Oak class!

We have had a lovely, relaxing introduction back to school. We have spent lots of time getting to know each other, some surprising facts about brocolli stalks!  The children have come in to school with super attitudes to learning and are taking on the task of role-modelling their excellent behaviour to the rest of the school.  

We are all looking forward to a busy, but fun, year in Oak class!

What a week!  Firstly, the children blew us all away with their performances of 'Matilda, the musical' at the theatre on Monday and Tuesday evening.  Then again, on Thursday, they performed again to the whole school.  The children were such a great audience, were singing along to the songs and giggling away!  I am immensely proud of them - what talent!  It felt like a professional production rather than a 'school play'!  Just WOW!

Then, it was Olympic day on Wednesday.  The children located the host cities around the world, discovered about the history of the Olympics, linking to our Ancient Greeks topic, had their own mini-olympics on the field, created olympic rings out of willow and then an Olympic themed dance workshop.  Again, such enthusiasm and engagement made the whole day an absolute pleasure!  

The children have also had fun looking back at their memories from their time at KEPS in preparation for the leavers' service next week.  Still to come, our sailing trip - pictures to follow!  Phew, what a brilliant week!

The children are making the most of their last few weeks at KEPS.  They have been volunteering to help out in Pre-school and always have a funny story to tell on their return!  They had their last swim session this week, so we had to have a pool party! We had the music turned up loud, with the children requesting the songs (the girls’ taste in music was quite different to the boys!) and then the children played with the floats and toys in the pool.

It was transition morning at KEPS on Wednesday, so the Oak class children were really excited to spend an hour in Beech class. They particularly liked the bikes and dressing up! It's lovely for the children to have fun and spend time their friends in this special time.  Lots more to come next week with the theatre and sailing trip!

Oak class designed, set up and manned some brilliantly fun stalls at the June fayre. The children and parents really enjoyed playing their games which mostly involved getting the year 6s soaking wet. Lots of sweets were won, there were happy smiling faces and lots of money raised for the PTA. What a success!

The year 6s had their transition days this week at their new secondary schools.  They came back to KEPS full of excitement about what they can look forward to in year 7 and beyond.  Only two and a half weeks left at primary school!

Oak class have been rehearsing their play 'Matilda' this week. Their roles are developing as they learn their words and timings. I'm amazed already by their talent and how quickly they remember their lines! We watched the film 'Matilda the musical' to remind ourselves of the story and to magpie ideas for our characters! It has been very hot in the classroom this week, so we had lots of time outside in the shade, reading our class book 'The Light in Everything', playing games and chilling out! The children practised their races for the upcoming Sports Day. Well done, Oak class - another busy but fun week!

WC 17/06/24

Oak class have been excited this week as we have started to read through our script for the Year 6 performance.  I have been really impressed by the children's talents - it is going to be a hard job casting!  The photos of the residential are now on our website, please take a look at all the adventures the children had.  We have started reading our new class book 'The light in everything'.  This has been sent to us by Huish Episcopi Academy and once read, we will be sending our book reviews to them.
