Fire Brigade Visit - May 2021
This term we have been learning about The Great Fire of London. On Wednesday 19th May, the year 1 children were lucky to have a visit from the local fire station. The children found out all about how to stay safe in an emergency and to test smoke alarms weekly to ensure they are working properly. They then had the opportunity to look at the fire engine and find out all about the different parts. The firefighters lit up the lights and sounded the siren for the children and a fantastic morning was had by all.
Home Sweet Home
During our History lessons we have been learning about items that we have in our homes now (present) and items that people would have had in the past.
We have learnt about timelines and we have sequenced telephones and computers through the years. We also compared items and discussed how things had changed. We were very shocked to hear that in the past there wasn’t any computers or ipads!
We ended our learning with a trip to our school museum. There were lots of different objects that were found in homes in the past and there was even pictures of our school from the past. We particularly enjoyed looking at the phones and how they have changed.
Internet Safety Day
In Year One we had a visit from Smartie the Penguin on Safer Internet Day. He needed our help! He told us a story about how he had received a new tablet for his birthday but things kept going wrong and he needed our advice about what he should do.
We have been learning about internet safety in our computing lessons this term so we had lots of ideas about what he should do.
We decided to make a poster for Smartie to take back home with him so he could remember how to stay safe.
With Smarties help we learnt this song to help us to remember!
