Art in Dahl class
Following on from our trip to Kilve, the children sketched an image of a fossil found at the beach and then used black paint to create different tones to reproduce a picture.
Despite the cold biting wind, the children had a fantastic day developing their skills in different PE activities. Thank you for organising that, North Petherton Primary School.
The children have settled into their new class very well. As classes have been renamed after authors, the children voted to name their class Roald Dahl - we are known as 'Dahl' class.

Robots in Dahl class!
Building Lego Mindstorm robots has been quite a challenge for the children. They had to follow some very complicated instructions which sometimes went a little wrong but, the children were very patient and managed to rebuild the robot and program it with the help of some of our Year 4 and Year 6 children. Well done to everyone and thank you for your help Year 4 and Year 6.
