Meridian Campus
3rd November 2023
Dysons Road
Last half term, we focused on settling the children into routines and exploring our outdoor areas.
Young children learn best through play. So, whether they're reading, writing or getting good with numbers, we try to keep things fun. In maths, we ask children to 'build it, draw it, say it' which helps to develop their understanding.
In October, we took part in activities for World Mental Health Day. We loved bubble therapy. We blew huge bubbles using bubble pools and enjoyed popping them too!
Springfield Road
BIKEABLILTY
In October, children in years 5 and 6 took part in Bikeability to improve their cycling skills and confidence.
They started by gliding with two feet in the air, then balanced on a two-wheel bike. Next, they learnt to pedal by pushing one foot down after the other on the pedals.
Before long, they were happily racing around the Springfield playground.
LAMBOURNE END
To support their transition to Haselbury next year, our year 6 children were reunited with their old friends from year 7 on a visit to Lambourne End centre for outdoor learning.
It was amazing to see the children bravely stepping out of their comfort zone, trying activities such as caving and swamp crossing.
They worked hard as a team and had a brilliant day.
Each week, the children enjoy a number of enrichment sessions with our visiting teachers.
We will be sharing photos in upcoming Spotlights and on our Twitter feed.
