Today #sjsbclass7 took on group discussion roles (leader, reporter, reflector, questioner) to tackle a big question. They listened actively, built on ideas, disagreed respectfully and found their voice. They can wait to keep practising these roles #sjsboracy #sjsbre

This week in forest school we built pavilions to shelter toads, made potions in the mud kitchen, crushed up fruit to make lollies, played on the rope swing and had a sing song with the instruments! Class 6 loved every second! #sjsbdt #sjsbforestschool @StJosephStBede @FarmSjsb

As part of our ‘who helps us topic’ this week our focus was the police. Reception were very lucky to have a police man in explaining how the police keep us safe in our community and they were lucky enough to go inside a real police van! ⁦@StJosephStBede⁩ ⁦@STOC_CAT⁩

We just have to share this-those smiles just sum up all the joy and happiness that a smile can bring to others. St Teresa of Calcutta once said, "We shall never know all the good that a simple smile can do."

Farm club has been lovely today, spending time with Ralph and weeding our allotment planters. We looked at the body language of dogs first to look for clues about how Ralph might be feeling and this led to looking for information about our goat’s body language too. @sjsbmh
