Call to Earth Day

Date: 11th Nov 2023 @ 7:41pm

All of our children took part in the CNN Call to Earth Day on 8th November. Our pledge was to raise awareness and increase the biodiversity of our environment We planted bulbs and as a result of this will provide spring-flowering plants. These will provide vital pollen and nectar to ensure early pollinators can carry on playing their vital role in the ecosystem. By planting the bulbs the children have participated in this global action to help the Earth. For more information please follow the link:
Further photos of our campaign will follow and we will be submitting our actions to CNN. We may hit the headlines!

Hedgehogs’ Wow Starter

Date: 31st Oct 2023 @ 6:54pm

For Hedgehogs’ ’wow starter’ today, the class were met with some damaged items. We used our knowledge of ‘in and around our school’, to try and work out who or what has caused it.

Reflection of the School Year 2022-2023

Date: 18th Sep 2023 @ 10:09pm

The end of the school year is always a time for reflection and celebration.   Not only is it a chance for us to relive some of our most treasured memories from the school year, but it also reminds us of all the interesting topics we have covered.    The films below show a snapshot of what we have been doing in school.

Oceans Gallore

Date: 29th Jul 2023 @ 3:32pm

Hedgehogs' Class created mood with their ocean scenes.  We first painted the sunset to give mystery and then painted and ripped to create the collage for a stormy sea. Together, this created a backdrop for our sketches of Columbus' Santa Maria.

We then linked our ocean study theme to our design technology.  We designed and created our own boats and tested them to see if they floated.  To improve our designs, we engineered propellors and attached them to our boats, to make them move. 

Blue Planet Aquarium

Date: 11th Jul 2023 @ 7:38pm

Hedgehogs' Class have enjoyed their 'fantastic finish' to their geography based study theme.

We visited Blue Planet Aquarium and met ocean creatures such as catfish, dogfish, starfish, manta rays and sharks (Sand Tiger, Zebra and Black Tip Reef).  We then met other aquatic creatures such as the Caimans (crocodiles) and pelicans.

An action-packed visit; enjoyed by all.

Coronation of King Charles III

Date: 8th May 2023 @ 3:08pm

King Charles III is passionate about our environment and conservation.   At Warmingham CE Primary, we share his passion and to commemorate his Coronation we have been working on some special projects which will encourage more wildlife into our grounds.

Otters planted some flowers in old wellies.

Hedgehogs made wildflower seed bombs which they later used to create a wildflower area by the school’s front gate.

Squirrels planted some shrubs and bedding plants in the planters which we moved from the front of the school to the edge of the playground so the children can maintain them.

Badgers made some bird boxes for the woodland area.   They then decorated them with paintings of wildflowers, bees, butterflies and ladybirds inspired by the invitation for the coronation which was created by Andrew Jamieson.

A message in a bottle

Date: 21st Apr 2023 @ 7:05pm

Hedgehogs’ Class have been enthused by our ‘wow’ starter to our new study theme. Mrs B found a message in bottle on a beach in Spain. But where did it come from? Who is Evan? Can we find him? The children are excited to learn about the seas and oceans of the world and hopefully rescue Evan.

Hedgehogs' Wow Starter_Spring Term

Date: 3rd Jan 2023 @ 9:03pm

Our Wow Starter for our Minibeasts Study Theme

We began our new study theme searching for minibeasts in our woodland.  We found worms, spiders, a centipede and a woodlouse.  But then came Dave...

Dave brought a whole host of minibeasts for a truly 'creepy crawly' show.  We met Charlie the Hissing Cocroach; Millie, the Giant African Millipede; Rosie the Chile Rose Tarantula; Finando the Black Beauty Stick Insect and Pricilla the Flat Rock Scorpian.  They were all very sociable.  We even 'high fived' the tarantula and shock hands with the scorpian!

We later met some animals which like to eat the minibeasts, like Leonardo de Geko the Geko, Hooter the Barn Owl and Tina the Tenrec.

Finally we met some animals further up the food chain - some snakes.

We throroughly enjoyed our visitors today and are looking forward to learning lots more about these amazing creatures.
