Book week!

We've had a great book week! 

Well done to everyone who had made an excellent effort at dressing up as their favourite book character on Friday!

Our activities included making a list of which characters we should invite to our book party and why, writing book reviews and we also explored our school library! 

Braces bread visit!

Braces bread came to visit us this week. We found out what ingredients make bread and the process of bread making from growing wheat to buying our bread in a shop. It was really interesting!
Here are our two bread making volunteers that helped create the dough in class. Lovely hair net colour choices Kelly-Ann and Kian!

Our 100th Birthday!

We had an absolutely fantastic time celebrating our centenary! We really enjoyed dressing up in our Edwardian clothes and in particular wearing the 'Welsh not'. We remembered all the school/class rules and engaged in our times tables, Bible studies and handwriting too.
The street party was also really great! A day to always remember!!
Please check out our photos in our gallery!

P.S. A big 'Thank You' to the parents who came in to class to discuss their Llanhari Primary School experiences!

Centenaty Celebration!

We can't believe it! Our school is celebrating it's 100th birthday!

It was 100 years ago this April that the 'tin school' was built and to celebrate our centenary, we are learning about our school - how it has changed and how lessons have changed throughout the last 100 years!
We firstly discovered that our very first classroom was originally in 'The Bear Inn' and we located the exact room in which the children were taught!
Mr Francis has visited our class telling us wonderful stories about our amazing school and the different types of lessons that went on.
We have written questionnaires to ask our family members about their experiences as past pupils of the school and Mrs Thomas (Amelia's mum) and Mrs Sharp (Gethin's mum) will be coming into school next week to talk to our class about their experiences and to answer any questions we might have!

We are really looking forward to next Friday where we will be dressed in Edwardian clothes, being taught Edwardian lessons, having a very special assembly, having a special street party and taking part in old playground games!

Pasg Hapus!

Another fun-filled week of Easter activities!
The decorated eggs were eggcellent! Congratulations to Kelly-Ann for winning our class competition and to and Bradley  who was runner up!
We really enjoyed watching the Infant Easter Hat  Parade and had lots fun rolling our eggs for egg pacing!
Pasg Hapus i bawb!


The winning entry!

Red Nose Day 2013!

What a 'Fun Friday' we had this week!
We all had either 'mad' hair, wore silly hats or red noses in order to raise as much money as we can for 'Comic Relief'.
We also told jokes. Here are some of our favourites!

"Why did the lady put a trumpet in the fridge?"
" So that she could play cool music!"

"Knock, knock,"
"Who's there?"
"Little old man,"
"Little old man who?"
"Little old man who can't reach the doorbell!"

"What did one snowman say to the other snowman?"
"Can you smell carrots?"

"Two crisps walked past a bus stop. A bus pulled by and asked if they would like a lift. They replied 'No thanks, we're Walkers!"


We definitely did 'Something Funny For Money!'

Wythnos Cymreag!

We have had a very busy 'Welsh Week'!
From drawing our leeks and daffodils and using watercolours to paint them to learning our welsh Eisteddfod poem and song.
We have researched and designed posters of welsh attractions and have learnt about who St.David was and why we celebrate St.David's Day.
We read a welsh language book based on St.David's Day and have created some funky folk dances too!

Da iawn pawb!!
