• Bikeability 2013

  Mon 07 Oct 2013

  Bikeability is all about learning to use our bikes properly so that we are safe on the roads.
  
  It was great to welcome our instructor, Ian, in to school again last week and to be able to offer this vitally important training course to our Year Six children completely free of charge.
  As you can see we started off on our playground but it wasn't long before we were out on the roads around Bradworthy.

  In addition to learning some really important lessons we also had a great time !!!

  

• Year Six Sailing

  Sat 05 Oct 2013
  Every child in Year Six has been sailing this half term and what's even better is that we've been able to fund these sessions ourselves and offer them for free.
  
  As a school we are committed to giving our children access to as many challenging experiences as possible and this is the latest example.
  
  Next spring the children will have the chance to work on their Level One Sailing Certificate when we run a weekly club.

  

• New School Garden

  Fri 04 Oct 2013
  The children in Year Six have been busy outside this week.
  They've been given the job of creating a school garden where we can grow things like vegetables which we want to be able to cook with.
  We're calling this our "Fork to Fork" project.
  From the garden fork which we use in the garden to the fork we use to put things in our mouth.
  
  We're hoping to get the garden area finished over the next week so we can start to use it as soon as possible - even if it isn't the best time of year to plant things !!!
  
  There will be more photos soon so keep checking our web-site.

  

• Year 1 - Threthorne

  Fri 04 Oct 2013
  Class 1 have been looking at animals so far this term. Last Monday we took the plunge and went to Trethorne Leisure Farm for the day. We had a really good time and fortunately the weather stayed nice!! The children all enjoyed the sessions with the animals and a good run around in the indoor play area. Lets hope we have as much fun at the Zoo in a few weeks!

  

• Harvest 2013

  Thu 03 Oct 2013
  We celebrated Harvest with a festival in the village church this year.
  We've been working hard with Mr Dawson to produce a performance which included songs, music, poetry and readings.
  It was great that over sixty parents were able to join us.

  

• Charlotte's Web

  Wed 02 Oct 2013

  On Friday 27th September, M&M Theatre Production came to Bradworthy Memorial hall to perform the play Charlotte's Web.

  Charlotte's Web is a story about a little girl called Fern. One night eleven little piggies are born. One of the piglets was to small, and so Ferns dad needed to kill it, or it would starve. Fern saw her dad with an axe in his hand. She decided that the piglet shouldn't die because he is small, and so she took care of the tiny little piglet.

  She named him Wilber.

  Wilber was, after seven weeks, too big and expensive to keep so Fern's dad decided that Wilbur will either be sold, or he could live in Fern's Uncle Zucamuns farm.

  Wilber heard uncle Zucamun saying he would very big by the time Christmas comes and Charlotte was worried that Mr. Zucamun will kill her and turn her into bacon and sausages.

  Charlotte the spider ( Wilber's best friend) weaves a web with the words, "some pig".

  Charlotte also spun webs with the words , "radiant" and, "humble. These were her last webs, and so she put her heart and sole into making them.

  The story ends when Charlotte dies leaving Wilbur to live the rest of his life with happiness, for she had saved him. Charlotte left Wilbur her baby's. In total there were seven hundred eggs!

  When the theatre people preformed the story, every one really enjoyed it. This was our last theatre production ( for Class Six). It was a really nice feeling to be watching it.  The characters were,  Fern ( the loving child, that can talk to animals,), Avery ( the fantasy and TV lover), mum ( the snack lover ), and the dad
  ( the man of the house ). I think the theatre was better than the story and film. Going to the theatre production was really fun, and it is sad it is our last one.

  Charlotte's web was a really nice last theatre production, and we will miss watching them.
