Music and other Rowan Class Activities

As part of our parental involvement for our World War 2 Adventure,  we invited the parents to see our christmas production, 'A Wartime Tale.' This consisted of singing a variety of wartime classics and all the children dressed in wartime clothes, which looked fantastic!
On our final day before the christmas holidays, we made some biscuits and decorated them. This was a really lovely way to end the decade and got everyone into the festive Christmas spirit. 

For Macmillan, every class did some baking. As we have been learning about the Mayans, who were famous for making chocolate, we baked some chocolate cupcakes. This was a very messy, but enjoyable experience and the cakes tasted delicious!

Ukulele

This year in Rowan Class, we are learning to play the Ukulele. Mr Jennings comes in every Wednesday and teaches us how play the a variety of well-known songs including Katy Perry’s ‘Roar’ and George Ezra’s ‘Shotgun.’

Roald Dahl Day

 

Roald Dahl Day was definitley a great way to start our year in Rowan Class. We began with an assembly, where the teachers and children had a Roald Dahl competition, which really tested their knowledge! Afterwards, we did some activities in our Key Stage, which included Miss Trunchbull's javelin, a search round school for Mr Wormwood's cars and doing a peach experiment! 

 

 

Mr Frankland our P.E teacher had arranged for a visitor to come into school to show us some judo moves and allow us to take part in some activities safely. The children enjoyed getting dressed up in their judo jackets and learning judo moves on the floor mats.

CBeebies came to Westwood!

The children loved taking part in the CBeebies workshop and had a great time watching the Ridiculous Rhyme show for assembly. During the workshop the children learnt all about the different roles needed in a studio, such as the camera crew, lighting, sound, costumes etc They had the opportunity to carry out some of these roles during a role play session in the workshop.
