Today I had the pleasure of teaching Sunflower class all day and we kept the wonderful theme of Dinosaurs going with their topic. Everyone worked so hard and was so engaged in their learning, which was varied and interesting. Here are some of the class, who were happy to share their learning, talking about what they enjoyed from the day.

Thistle Class have been enjoying the book The Night Pirates. In the story, Tom joins the rough, tough crew of Girl Pirates on an adventure. They sail to an island where they steal a treasure chest from a crew of lazy, scared Grown-up Pirates, led by Captain Patch. Using this story as inspiration and as a model, the children created their own pirate story. Here are the children from Reception telling you their stories.
