Muscles

This week, Dosbarth Un moved onto learning about muscles! Our younger learners got hands-on by using their muscles to perform different exercises. They had great fun discussing which muscles were involved in each activity and how their bodies responded. Meanwhile, others took on the challenge of researching muscle facts and created some great group posters to share. 

Skeleton

Dosbarth Un have been busy learning about the skeleton. This week the learners have been on a welly walk to collect natural materials and then used these to make a skeleton and labelled some of its bones. The learners thought carefully about the size and shape of the sticks they needed for the different types of bones. 

Recycling Pens

The Eco-Committee have been busy weighing and parcelling up the pens ready for a collection. We are pleased to announce that we have collected 23.36kg to send off to be recycled. From this, we will earn charity points to donate to our chosen charity ‘BBC Children in Need’! We would like to thank everyone for supporting us with this; please continue to bring in any used writing instruments and spread the word that we are a public drop off point for these. 

New Binoculars

Check out our new binoculars for our Forest School area! The Eco-Committee have purchased these with some of the money raised from our second-hand clothing sale. The learners are looking forward to using them! 

Children in Need

Together, we’ve made a difference! We raised an incredible £103.75 for Children in Need! Thank you to everyone who contributed and supported this amazing cause. A special thanks to our School Council for organising this. 

Sense of Taste

This week, Dosbarth Un explored their sense of taste and took part in an experiment where they described the different flavours they experienced, such as sour, sweet, and salty. The learners were fantastic at thinking of adjectives and guessing what the foods were. 

Pentre Farm Visit

This week, Dosbarth Un enjoyed a special visit from Pentre Farm. Learners had the opportunity to meet a variety of animals and discover interesting facts about them, including their diets and habitats. A huge thank you to Sam for providing such a valuable and enjoyable experience. We truly appreciate it!
