St Louis Here at St Louis in Frome, we have had a busy few months since September. First things first, our children were chosen for their roles and responsibilities – and there are many! We have Chaplaincy Team, Eco Warriors, Wellbeing Ambassadors, Digital Leaders, House Captains, School Council, Librarians and Red Hats! Our children have had the opportunity to access a wide range of enrichment activities throughout the term so far. We have had a multi-sports festival, yoga lessons, street dance and superhero PE, to name just a few. Our Year 3s have been learning to play the violin for the last few weeks and are coming along nicely. Year 2 took a trip into Frome to visit the Frome Museum for their topic on Frome in the past. We were also able to take some of our children to represent our school at the Frome Remembrance parade. We were incredibly proud of them! As well as all this exciting learning happening outside of the classroom, there has been some exciting learning happening inside the classroom! Year 6 have been writing blogs in computing and will go on to publish them, using our Purple Mash system. Some of the exciting entries include: horses, football and much more! Year 5 have been making moon buggies in their DT project and hope to be able to make them move electronically. Year 4 have been reading The Land of Roar and even designed their own lands of roar, which was a fantastic display of both creative thinking and understanding the language used by the author. Alongside their History topic on the Stone Age, Year 3 have been learning to sew their own pouches. Some of the children from this class have been so inspired that they joined our after-school sewing club! Year 2 have used their resilience in learning about fear in their book ‘Orion and the Dark’, in which they spent some time working on ‘book talk’ and responding to images. Year 1 brought in their own toys from home and created a ‘Toy Museum’ in the classroom. They impressed with their curious questions about other children’s toys. Reception showed their stewardship and created bird feeders for our orchard. Our Chaplaincy Team have been busy working together to choose which charities to show love to and support by raising money throughout all our Christmas events. Our School Council have been beacons of respect as then ensure our school is kept clean, tidy and inviting for all to see. As we move into Advent, we kickstart the special season with our Advent reflections in which we will think about times we have needed to be forgiven and needed to forgive someone else. We do this in preparation for Jesus’s coming at Christmas.
