Mrs Rigby came to talk to Year 5 about what is was like to live during World War 2. She was a volunteer in the WAF and her husband, Charlie was a soldier in the war. She had an amazing story to tell! #stgeorgeshydeyear5 #stgeorgeshydehistory

Reception and Year 1 made buns for our VE Day celebrations. We heard all about what Victory in Europe means and to mark the occasion, we had our very own “street party” in our playground eating the buns we made. #stgeorgeshydereception #stgeorgeshydeyear1

Year 1 and Eden room children visited Lancaster Farm to learn why farms are so important. We saw lots of different animals and we fed a horse called Mr Moustachio! All the children, teachers and parents had an amazing day! #stgeorgeshydeyear1 #stgeorgeshydeedenroom

Reception heard the story of why we celebrate St George’s day. We acted out the story using masks and props and had lots of fun making a flag. We pretended we were the villagers, and all went outside and cheered "Hip, Hip Hooray for St George’s Day" #stgeorgeshydereception

Year 4 and Year 6 entertained us with their musical talents today. They showcased their learning from last half term singing songs and playing their Ukuleles. Year 4 wrote their own song about the Romans! #stgeorgeshydemusic

Reception parents came to share the children's learning outcome, “Who is my story hero?” The children retold their story-a story with a character, setting, problem and resolution.  Thank you to everyone who came to share the children's learning with them. #stgeorgeshydereception

The children are loving their art lessons. They have practiced using watercolours and blending them altogether with water. They have made different patterns by blowing the paint with a straw and finger painting. Their artwork is beautiful!
