Outdoor learning Week

We have had a fantastic Outdoor Learning Week with the very timely appearance of summer making it ideal for the activities that have taken place. Most of the learning this week has been in the school grounds including weaving with natural resources, Maths challenges, scavenger hunts, Art and more. The children have taken time to appreciate nature and to focus on our environment. All classes have used a book called ‘Not A Stick’ to develop their creativity – it is amazing what a stick can transform into with a little bit of imagination.  Class 4 have visited St Alban’s Cathedral and Class 3 have walked down to Lemsford Springs. Many thanks to parents who have been in school to support many of these activities.

St John's Charity Cake Bake 

The school council came up with the idea of a Charity Cake Bake and Sale. They wanted to raise funds for a local cancer charity and chose the Isabel Hospice. The children were invited to create cakes on a book theme and to bring them into school for judging. All kinds of cakes were made including a pirate ship, a 'Happea Birthday Harry' cake, Jungle Book cupcakes and so much more. The School Council and House Reps judged the cakes and the winners were given a prize. Following on from the Cake Sale we are delighted to say that the children raised £126 for the Isabel Hospice. Bailey Robinson, a fund-raising co-ordinator from the Isabel Hospice, came into school to accept the money raised and to have a photo shoot with the school council, who had thought of organising a charity Cake Bake Sale. All the children who entered the competition received a certificate in a Celebration Assembly with the five children who scored the highest marks given a prize. The School Council and House Captains judged the entries giving points for effort, appearance and taste. Well done to everyone who took part!

Our new school garden Mrs Shannon has been busy creating a school garden area. This week each class planted out seeds and young plants as well as explored ways of recycling rain water with the aim of self sufficiency.
