Year 2 were able to apply their creative thinking while taking a trip to St Nicholas’ Park in Warwick. They were able to imagine standing in the crystal clear waters of the seaside whilst paddling in the crystal clear waters at the park, all linking to their topic “Oh I do like to be beside the Seaside”. Year 2 then managed to show off their impressive team building and sports skills with a few games of football and rounders swiftly followed by some delicious ice cream, what a fantastic day out!

On St George's Day, Year 3 students wrote letters to the Queen asking her about her life and sending their wishes to her after the news of Prince Phillip. We were extremely excited to receive a response from the Lady in Waiting from Windsor Castle yesterday. She was sending her thanks from the Queen and a couple of information leaflets about her life for the children to read and learn from.

This week, Year 4 enjoyed a trip to Sutton Park where they completed a variety of exciting outdoor activities relating to their topic, 'Live and let live'. During the day, they worked in teams to build dens using outdoor resources, saw lots of different wildlife and mini beasts in their natural habitats, identified different trees, did tree rubbings, created story sticks using items that they collected, and enjoyed the great outdoors! They ended the day enjoying a delicious ice-cream to cool them down!

Smith's Wood Primary took part in the NSPCC's Number Day on Wednesday 30th June. Pupils completed a plethora of exciting numerical challenges and activities, both inside and outside, while showing a true love for Maths! Children created outdoor bar charts, looked at sequences in nature in our Sensory Garden and Pond and took part in some number inspired golf lessons. All this while dressed in their favourite numbers!
All in all, this was to raise money and awareness for the great work done by the NSPCC. As a school, we raised nearly £300. We would like to thank all parents and carers for their support with this brilliant event.
