This week the Otters class has been working on a project which involves our new topic,minibeasts.We have been involved in creating our own minibeast of our creation we have also been up our local park hunting for minibeasts in two categories:vertabrates and invertabrates! Despite our hard work,on Wednesday we went up maerdy swimming pool for our lesson, it was incredibly fun. The past three days have been quite tough because we had our tests for the year: reading,reasoning and procedural. As a result of the test on Thursday afternoon we watched an enjoyable film for year 1 to year 6 which was Toy Story 3, to celebrate the completion of our tests. We watched the rest of the film this morning it was fabulous! During playtime we sold some delicious treats to raise money for our London trip. This morning we had our celebration assembly and for the first time this year we won the schools attendance cup which was truly exciting!
