Class 3

Star and Phoebe (Year 6) share their memories of the term

This is our last ‘Weekly Scape’ for this school year!

We have had many events over the past couple of weeks, such as: the leavers play, our performance at the church, the year 6s made their ‘Mini Mees’, the leavers disco and our educational visits (#SchoolTrip!)

Let’s start with the leavers play. We struggled a little with making the script and didn’t have much time to practise but we still made it work and we had an amazing time performing! After our morning performance, we got our first look at the Scapegoat Hill memory yearbooks, made by Mrs and Mr Comiskey where we got some messages from children as well as teachers at the back of the yearbooks.

At 2:30 in the Baptist Church, we did a performance all about endings and beginnings on the 15th of July, which included a verse from Ecclesiastes, we sang songs from the leavers’ performance, we had a poem from all of class 2 and a lot more!

Next up we are going to talk about the year 6’s mini me making. Steph from The Clay Team very kindly came to school to teach the year 6’s how to make mini versions of themselves out of clay!! She taught us step by step, and in the end, we have a result that we can now keep forever. Thank you, Steph!

Ah. The Leaver’s Disco! We had a disco on the 10th of July to celebrate the Year 6’s in style. Some of the year 6 parents helped to organise it, and they did a fabulous job! Mr Comiskey was the DJ. We had some great tunes on, and we played some fun games as well! There was also a cinema in class 3 if the dancing wore you out. We are grateful to the parents who helped and the teachers for making it happen. J

Last but most definitely not least, the school trips! Class 1 went to ‘Eureka!’, Class 2 went to Canon Hall, and Class 3 went to Bagshaw Museum with Fixby Junior School! We had a lot of fun at all of these places. Rex said about his trip to Canon Hall, “I liked seeing the meerkats and going to the reptile house and seeing all the ants and things like that.”

Class 3 had a wonderful time at Bagshaw Museum, where we created some unforgettable memories and made friends from Fixby Junior and Infant School. After sharing bunting and postcards, as well as engaging in online lessons, our visit was the perfect way to connect. The museum was brilliant, with so much to explore! We learned about the history of Batley, including Fox’s Biscuits and the famous brandy snaps. The ancient Egyptians captured our imagination, especially the sarcophagus of Ta-di-ta- nebet-hen. Together, we discovered more about our area and beyond!
