Proms in the Park comes to Sheriffhales!

This morning, we enjoyed a musical extravaganza as the orchestra and keyboard players delighted us with a mini open-air concert!

Family Fun Afternoon

We had a wonderful afternoon on Tuesday. The children and their families had a picnic on the field with staff, before enjoying rounders, biscuit decorating, maypole and playground games.

Stop Press!

Class 2 have made news reports about the plight of Borneo's endangered orangutans. 

We found out about deforestation and the dreadful impact it is having on the country's wildlife as part of our Rainforests topic.

Athletics at RAF Cosford

Years 3 and 4 had a lovely day at RAF Cosford on Tuesday 8th July. The team represented the school brilliantly at an inter-schools athletic tournament.
A big 'WELL DONE!' to Lucia in Year 3 who came second in the final of the Y3/4 girls' 400m race.
Thank you to the parents who came to support and cheer our children on, and to Mr and Mrs Skidmore for lending us their gazebo.

Sheriffhales School Choir "Live at home"

We were so proud of the choir and musicians today who entertained a large audience of local residents and parents with their fantastic singing and playing. Well done, everyone!

 CLASS ONE TRIP TO ATTINGHAM PARK 

Yesterday we went on the coach to Attingham Park to have a look at the plants and mini beasts.

  

We left our things in the Bothy which is where the gardeners leave their tools and had a good look around the walled garden.  We drew some plans of the different flower and vegetable beds and used our flower charts to identify some of the flowers.  We recognised lots of plants and flowers from our own gardens.

In the orchard we looked for flowers and minibeasts. We found lots of butterflies and some caterpillar eggs 

on the back of leaves.  They were very tiny so we had to use our magnifying glasses to help us see them. 

We also saw some walnut trees with real walnuts growing on them. 

Some of us had a go at making our very own beehives out of mown grass.  That was fun!! 

 We wondered why it was very warm in the greenhouse? Then we realised that lots of tomato plants were growing there! And guess what in the vegetable patch we found a type of onion called Roxy!! 

We found some time for play after our picnic lunch and before we went home we visited the Beehouse where all the skeps were kept. A skep is a woven beehive where a colony of bees will live. 

After a long day we got back on the bus for school. We had wonderful weather, a great time, friends to share it with and we saw loads of amazing things. 

Thank you to Mrs. Hodgetts and Mrs. Gough for all your help today - we hope you enjoyed it too!!
