Croeso! Welcome!

Welcome to the Ysgol Cae'r Nant Bulletin for ​the second half of the Spring Term. We have ​been working very hard and having lots of fun. ​Our Year 3 & 4 classes performed ‘Caru Cymru’ ​a Welsh assembly for their parents. Our Year 5 ​pupils loved going to watch a performance of ​Matilda at CQHS. Our Year 2 pupils enjoyed a ​trip to Danger Point and they got to attend the ​‘Size of Wales’ Workshops. Also a small choir ​sang welsh songs to celebrate St. David’s Day ​at the Independent Living Scheme.

Dosbarth Seren have been ​doing lots of gardening, ​tending to their planter ​and watering the daffodils. ​They have also been ​planting sunflower seeds ​for Mother's Day gifts. They ​have created artwork ​relating to the weather - ​this is thunder and ​lightning.

Dosbarth Gwyn have been busy making lovely playdough ​models for St David's Day. They have been Word Building ​and Sentence Building. They have explored "capacity" in ​maths with different sized containers and have done some ​practical subtraction (whilst eating fruit!)

Dosbarth Gwyrdd ​have been practising ​their culinary skills ​and made some ​delicious jam ​sandwiches. They ​made them so they ​could take them for ​their picnic on the ​planet Zum-Zee.

As part of their topic work Dosbarth Melyn have been ​learning about crops in different countries. They have also ​been writing instructions about planting seeds and then ​using these to help them plant their own seeds in class.

Dosbarth Glas have been helping a farmer called Dai ​Jones do some important jobs. He has given them ​some seeds to grow so they have made these fantastic ​scarecrows to protect them.

Dosbarth Coch made this incredible daffodil wind farm for their ​Consortium Eisteddfod entry. Each child made their own ​daffodil wind turbine to create this effective piece of art.

Tegid

Dosbarth Tegid have been working collaboratively to complete this ​500 piece jigsaw, such a good team effort! They have also been using ​their problem solving skills to complete these Tangram puzzles. In ​maths they have been learning all about fractions and have enjoyed ​making their own fraction walls.

Dosbarth Brenig made ​some delicious bara ​brith to celebrate St. ​David’s Day. They ​carefully weighed out ​and mixed all of the ​ingredients. Once it was ​ready they sold it to ​parents and made an ​amazing £35!

Dosbarth Alwen have ​been very creative and ​have designed some ​lovely posters to ​promote our school ​Easter Bingo event. ​They have also been ​using their problem ​solving skills to ​complete these ​fraction word problems.

Dosbarth Celyn learnt the ​lovely Daffodil poem by ​William Wordsworth to ​celebrate St. David’s Day. ​They have also had the ​chance to create their ​own fact file about a topic ​that interests them, a ​child created this one all ​about footballer Marcus ​Rashford. In Cymraeg ​they have been practising ​how to ask people if they ​want something.

Dosbarth Padarn have created a storyboard as part of their ​mantel work. Their storyboards are for adverts they are making to ​encourage tourism to their island. They have already started ​filming using the green screen to add in their different scenes.

Dosbarth Berwyn spent an entire day playing a variety of different sports. They got to ​try American football, cricket, basketball and handball. Here you can see some children ​doing a play in American football. Berwyn have also been working with microbits this ​half term. They have coded microbits to send morse code messages, count steps and ​play rock, paper, scissors against another microbit.

Berwyn also used the work they have ​been doing on ratio to create and mix ​their own mocktails.

Dosbarth Gwynant have been busy with their Mantel work. They have ​been learning about plant adaptations in the Rainforest and how they ​have adapted to the environment in a Rainforest. They have also ​created interesting fact files based on plants that grow in the ​rainforest and drawn some beautiful pictures to go with them.

We hope ​you have ​a hoppy ​Easter!
