This week, our Curiosity Club enjoyed a “Tuneful Tuesday”. 🎼 The children explored the concept of tempo, starting with drumming and clapping to understand different speeds. They then practiced “Oh When the Saints” on their paper pianos. Mr. Foley gave each child a different tempo to focus on. 🎹 When the children played together at the end, we could hear all the different speeds blending into one fun performance!

This week Minnis Bay had a fantastic trip to Quex Park Farm. They enjoyed learning and participating in lots of different activities, from learning about ‘Life of a loaf of bread’ and different farm animals, to having the opportunity to feed them and experiencing a tractor ride. The children had a phenomenal time! Miss Warner was incredibly impressed with the class’s behaviour throughout the trip, and they all represented Newlands well.

Last week, Minnis Bay were very lucky to be gifted some Frogspawn by one of our parents at school, Mr Dias Viveiros. The class have already found it fascinating to observe the changes to the frogspawn during the week. 🐸 This term, we will be learning about the life cycles of butterflies and frogs, so are grateful to have the frogspawn in our class for a real life learning experience. We are looking forward to seeing them grow and change into frogs
