Cafe Hirondelle (Swallow's Cafe)

Bonjour!

Today Swallows organised a super French Café.  All the children in the school sampled lots of different French food and brioche was definitely our favourite!  We really enjoyed speaking in French, asking what the children would like to eat.  Bon appetite!

Summer Fayre

Everyone had a wonderful time at our annual Summer Fayre.  

The glorious sun shone and we performed our country dancing,

... had our faces painted,

...bought sweets (!),

and bounced on the Bouncy Castle!

What a fabulous day was had by all!



KS2 JUDO

On Friday 10th July, Starlings and Swallows had a fabulous morning learning new Judo skills!

"It was awesome!"

Jumping Jaxx Training

 

 

On Tuesday 30th June Year 5 were taught by some  Young Ambassadors from Bewdley School and Sixth Form Centre.

They learnt how to deliver Jumping Jaxx which they will lead at lunchtimes next year.

 

 

We really enjoyed ourselves and found this really useful for next year.

Thank you!

 



 

 

 

 



JAM PACKED DAY!

We've been sooo busy that we haven't even had time to blog!! Mrs Mayall and Miss Hutton are writing this as the children are settling into bed.  So... very briefly, we have had another fabulous day - great sleep, lovely breakfast, Stream Study (the children found lots of creepy crawlies!), Tunnels Revisited (we even shut all the hatches to make it really dark which the children loved!), lunch, Treasure Hunt, BBQ and BONFIRE where we all toasted marshmallows over the fire. Finally, we sat together for our final hot chocolate and shared proud and funny moments!
The children have been absolutely wonderful and a pleasure to bring away on this trip.  We are so proud of each and every single one of them!
See you all tomorrow!

PERFECT PROBLEM SOLVING, AWESOME ORIENTEERING AND SUPER SHELTER BUILDING

Another great nights sleep was had by all! After our yummy breakfast, we headed for the problem solving course where we moved from task to task which included lots of team building activities. Our favourites were The Water Cycle, Bomb Disposal and Island crossing.  We' ll explain more when we get back to school.
After lunch we had a fabulous time doing Star Orienteering in the forest.  Then some of us got very wet on the shelter building because we were tested on how weatherproof our shelter was.
We had a great surprise tonight... We suddenly realised that Mr Smith was waving at us from outside!! We had a great time showing him around - and he said our bedrooms were very tidy! HE WAS SURPRISED!
Looking forward to the tuck shop being opened and kareoke tonight!

Adrenaline Rush - What a day!

After a wonderful sleep and a lovely breakfast, we all set out for the zip wire.  We all did it so we were really proud of ourselves! Then came the climbing wall and loads of us reached the top.  Hooray!  But the most daring part of the day was the LEAP OF FAITH! Oh my.. some of our knees were shaking... but, we all tried our best and most of us leapt, had faith and gripped onto the trapeze before gracefully floating to the floor.  Can you believe, even Miss Hutton and Mrs Mayall flew, like angels, through the air!!! Wow!
After a delicious lunch we jumped into a mini-bus and travelled to a lake where we did loads of fun canoeing activities!  The best was the Titanic - ask us when we get back - but basically we got VERY wet!!
We've just had a lovely dinner and now we're off to the field for fun and games!
What a day!
Catch up with us again tomorrow for more exciting adventures!
