Forest School

We had a super Forest School session yesterday. Pupils were invited to build shelters and they really developed their problem solving and team building skills. Da iawn Pawb!

Dydd Santes Dwynwen Hapus

Some of our Year 6 pupils gave out some origami hearts (calon) to our parents to wish them a โ€˜Dydd Santes Dwynwen Hapusโ€™.

Outdoor Learning!

We took our digital coding skills outdoors and created a maze/track for our classmates to use coding instructions and lead each other around the maze with their eyes closed! We used instructions like, ‘turn 90degrees right’ ‘take 3 small steps forward’. We looked at the importance of detailed instructions.

Cwis Dim Clem

Today we took part in the Cwis Dim Clem. We were the third of 27 schools to take part. We will have to wait to find out if we have got through to the next round.

We had 2 winning teams. If our score of 30/40 is high enough, 4 out 5 of them will represent Knighton in the next round!

Enillwyr Tocynnau Cymraeg

Congratulations to our Welsh badge winners last week. You have been using lots of incidental Welsh inside and outside of the classroom. Bendigedig pawb!!

The Welsh Whisperer\Y Sibrwd Cymraeg

The Welsh Whisperer visited Dosbarth Hwyaid Bach, Eryr and Jac-y-Do yesterday to compose a Christmas Song of our very own. We worked within our classes in the morning to compose the lyrics for the song and then all came together in the afternoon to perform the song to the rest of the school. The children agreed that our Christmas Song was a hit and we are all very proud of ourselves of how well it went!!

The Welsh Whisperer then let us party alongside him with him playing a selection of his very own songs. We loved this too, and as you can see from the photos, we all had an amazing time!!

Well-being day!!

Years 2, 3 and 4 enjoyed a variety of activities to celebrate a well deserved well-being day! This included having a go at some blind football and blind obstacle course, and learning how to play some new games using unfamiliar technology.
