To start our topic of Planet Protectors the children thought about the impact of rubbish being on the school yard and decided to go and pick any rubbish up. They then used the data to collate into pictograms.

Conwy: Outdoor Learning

School Staff — Sun, 15 Mar 2026 20:29:04 +0000

Over the past week, the children have been enthusiastically exploring the school grounds to look for signs of Spring. During Outdoor Learning we observed many daffodils beginning to grow and very excited to discover frogspawn with Miss Callaghan. This sparked great curiosity, and we will be following the life cycle within Continuous Provision, as the children have lots of questions. The children enjoyed creating wind catchers to build fine motor skills, using colours of the Welsh flag.

In addition, we spent time collecting sticks for another activity and created tally’s to develop our maths skills. The children also experimented with planks, independently building bridges in different positions, testing how this affected the speed of a toy car. Lots of fun. This hands-on exploration encouraged problem solving , teamwork and scientific thinking.

Dosbarth Criccieth: Coding fun

School Staff — Thu, 12 Mar 2026 11:56:25 +0000

This week we have been working with programmable toys called Bee-Bots. The children worked together to programme the Bee-Bots to move along a grid, thinking carefully about the sequence of instructions they needed to give. It’s trickier than it sounds! Next, we will be looking at where things might have gone wrong and learning how to fix the algorithm (the sequence of instructions used to programme the Bee-Bot).
