Toy Workshop Term 3

Pippin and Russet recently took part in a toy workshop as part of our history unit. Nat from Maidstone Museum came to visit us, bringing a collection of toys. Some of the toys were replicas from as far back as the Victorian period while some were examples of newer toys. This meant the children were able to compare modern with older toys, commenting on the similarities and differences. We spent the afternoon creating our own version of Cup and Ball.

"I never knew that they didn't have plastic in Victorian times." C, Y2.

Can you name any of the toys in the images?

Term 2

The past few weeks were busy for Pippin as the KS1 & EYFS Nativity took place shortly before the end of term. The children worked incredibly hard to learn their lines, cues and each of the many songs. We had sheep to elephants and Mary to Anton Du Beke grace the stage in superb costumes. The singing, in particular, was beautiful! As is typical with this time of year, we had a few pupils miss the performances due to illness but some of our brave children stepped into the roles last minute and demonstrated their ability to switch roles and learn lines quickly (no simple task for 5- 7-year-olds!).

After working so hard on the Nativity and to celebrate Christmas approaching, Pippin and Russet made and decorated reindeer biscuits which were enjoyed during the key stage party during the last week. They also created festive snowman Christmas cards that were then sent to a local Day Centre to be enjoyed by those who may not receive many cards.
