The children have used unwanted metal objects to create their amazing wind chimes.
They investigated the sound that different instruments make. Then thoughtfully arranged the recycled objects so that they would knock against each other and make relaxing and enjoyable sounds.
A massive well done to the Urdd members that participated in this years craft competition. Here are their final products that were taken to the regional round ready for judging.
Today our class has been lucky enough to work with Toni and Hels in a Forest School session.
We used a pruning saw a to cut a branch of a hazel tree to create a rope ladder. Others created dens whilst waiting. Lots of skills were developed, including resilience, team-work, communication and empathy.
The children worked together, sharing equipment and taking turns.
We had lots of chat, laughter and fun.
We have been lucky enough to be visited by a local artist. We had studied the art work of Stuart Roper and were put in contact with him through the art gallery in Knighton.
He came in to talk us through the process of using acrylic paints to create landscape scenes on canvas. We were all fascinated by his approach and are excited to try this medium and process ourselves. So many questions were asked.
We have been talking about all the things we are good at.
We made self-esteem medals for our friends to remind them how fabulous they are.
The children designed and made a coronation banner to be displayed in St Edwards’ Church.
