Tyler loves swimming

Tyler goes every Saturday morning for swimming lessons. He can now put his head under water which is a fabulous achievement and mum and dad are very proud of him.  Well done Tyler!

 Katelyn Baking Cookies 

Katelyn did home learning last weekend, baking cookies. She helped read the recipes, as well as counting out cups and spoons of different ingredients. When the oven dial and scales didn't show the temperature or weight we needed in numbers, she worked out which line we needed to get too. And at the end, there was yummy cookie dough leftovers to eat.. and cookies to share with the class!

Jamie and his BMX

Jamie started going when he was 4 years old.  The BMX club has an hour session for juniors each week.  It has been good for his confidence and Jamie is a keen biker, just like his mum and dad.

His bike is a specific BMX bike - small and light for racing .  He has to wear long sleeves and pants and a helmet for protection.  He is going to enter a race soon.  The track is at Hornby with hills and a start gate.  Well done Jamie!
