We have had a busy week of learning at Cypress and we have loved seeing the children progress.
At the lower school, we have been focusing on the value of kindness. We have been learning that each day is like a blank canvas and we have the option to colour it with kind things. Ms Binks was very impressed that the children could explain the impact of kind and unkind actions on others. The children are all focusing on colouring the lower school with kindness and making the school a happy place to be.
Professor Bubbleworks visits Reception
On Tuesday our Reception classes were visited by Professor Bubbleworks. The children were very excited ad they got the chance to be scientists. Every child got the chance to make their own slime. It was very interesting as the children noticed that the slime changed from a liquid at the start to a solid after they mixed it. They enjoyed exploring the texture. Well done Reception!
Violet Class visit the Mosque
As part of their learning about Islam, Violet Class visited Croydon Mosque. The children had a fantastic time and enjoyed meeting the Imam and learning new things. They will then apply what they have learnt into their RE lessons in school.
