Framwellgate Moor Primary School

Hello everyone,

I hope you’ve had a wonderful week.

We are all super proud of the Year 6 children this week.

I am very impressed with their calm and methodical approach this week!

They have enjoyed cake at the Park this morning and are looking very colourful in their hoodies!

Well done Year 6!

Shiny reading project

Last week's Shiny Reader was Nuh with 'Chickens can't see in the dark'

This week Mathilda shared 'Through the Fairy Door' by Lars van de Goor. The story is all about being able to make a difference even if you're very small like a fairy! The book is full of beautiful detailed illustrations. Thank you for sharing, Mathilda.

It was Manav’s time to shine in Ladybird class on Friday 16th May. He presented the traditional tale ‘Hansel and Gretel’. What a blast from the past! 

Manav pointed to each character and told us which one was Hansel and which was Gretel. He then went on to explain that he enjoys reading this book at home with his mam. Well done, Manav. You presented with great confidence.

Angelyn's Time to Shine  -

Angelyn's Time to Shine was blooming marvellous this week as she used the metaphor of a flower to describe her friendship group. She discussed their qualities beautifully as she told us which parts of a flower they each represented; Jacob the petals, Temilade the stem and Ariadne the nectar. Angelyn told us that thought of her wonderful idea when gardening with her dad at the weekend.

KS1 went to Hardwick Park. We saw swans, ducks and even baby goslings. We even found the gruffalo! Then it was onto a Roald Dahl workshop. We created our own dream catchers, made a magic medicine and then created our own mini world. A great time surrounded by nature and sunshine. "

Enrichment & Enjoyment | Framwellgate Moor Primary School

Year 5 and 6 thoroughly enjoyed their afternoon of Orienteering. We followed a chosen route using maps and raced against our friends. Working as a team, we played noughts and crosses against each other using specific vocabulary. Finally, we learnt some key symbols found on a map. A fantastic afternoon!

Shiny reading project

This week our Shiny Reader shared 'Chickens can't see in the dark'. The story is all about a curious chicken who finds out that eating lots of carrots is a good way to help all her friends enjoy the night sky. We enjoyed reading the story at snack time.
