Our version of Hansel and Gretel included jiving birds, talking trees and robbers who like to tango! All the children did a fabulous job learning their lines, songs and dances - Well done Beech Class

Our Tudor Walk

Hi, This is Beech Class. On Wednesday 21st of November, we went on a walk through Shrewsbury Town to look at Tudor Houses. We were identifying Tudor and Mock Tudor houses, but there were lots of both. Fish Street and Butchers Row were quite close together and they sold fish and meat (It must have been very stinky!) When Elizabeth I came she decided to paint the wattle and daub white, because she didn't like brown! In 'Bear Steps', bears and dogs had fights. We saw lots of different houses, some were built by rich people, some by poor. Grope Lane is very close together because of the jetty's sticking out of the houses. We found out that they built Shrewsbury Castle, because of the battle of Bosworth and the Monarch wanted to protect England

Tudor Houses

We had a great time making our Tudor houses last week. However, the cleaners weren't too happy with us!!

The Fire Service Visit Beech Class

Yesterday our class had a visit from the fire service to teach us about fire safety. While half the class learned how to keep safe in their homes, the other half of the class got to go and look at a fire engine! We all had a great time and learned a lot!

5 Sentence Challenge

This week the prompt for our 5 sentence challenge was 'Bad Weather.' Courtney, Evan, Harley, Ethan and Maddy worked together to compose the following sentences....... Fantastic work children!


The cold rain was smashing against the open window. It poured like a waterfall from the broken guttering. Black clouds made the day look like night. Banging thunder roared through the dark sky. Bright, flashing, lightning zig zagged through the air.

Our 'Battle of Bosworth'

Our topic this term is The Tudors. We have started this topic by learning about the Battle of Bosworth.
Mr Morris got us to recreate the battle by splitting Beech class and Poplar class into four armies (Henry Tudor's, Richard III's, Earl of Northumberland's and Lord Stanley's). We then chose one child to play the part of Henry Tudor and one to play the part of Richard III.
