In Nursery this week, we have been learning about ‘The Big Wide World’.  We have looked at maps and globes and thought about different countries.  Using information books and the internet children have enjoyed researching fun facts about various countries including different climates, traditions and foods, and how they compare to our country.

Year 2 have a new member of the class, meet, Axolotl the Great, who will be staying with the class this half term

In Nursery this week, we have been learning about Queen Elizabeth II and her Diamond Jubilee.  They learnt about when the Queen was born, who she married, how many children she has and where she lives.  They have thought about how the Queen serves the nation, and how we will celebrate 70 years on the throne in various ways over the next week.   We made some lovely decorations and children designed crowns to make for our parties and played some fun games to celebrate.

This week we were visited by Mr Spilsbury from William Brookes School and the Wenlock Olympian Society. He told us all about the history of the Olympics and introduced us to Wenlock and Mandeville, the London 2012 Olympic mascots. Some children were involved in some filming for the Renwick Relay, as part of WBS and the Wenlock Olympian Society's plans to celebrate the Legacy of the London 2012 Olympic Games this summer. We can't wait to see the final film!

We had a visit from Steve a coach at Worcester Warriors who worked with Y3, 4, 6 and 5 throughout the day on Thursday.

Children learned teamwork in rugby and played fun games and practices to help them put this into practice through tag rugby.

Well done to James, Sophie and three other children who were selected to receive special Worcester Warriors merchandise for showing great sportsmanship.
