Alnwick Class 2024-25

Alnwick Beach School Day - A Festive Stickman Adventure

 What an adventure for our winter themed beach day and our first as Alnwick Castle Class.

Along the way we spotted things including some plants, lots of ducks like eider ducks which we identified the male and female. We had to negotiate a hedge cutter so the kind tractor man let us passed and it got us thinking about all the jobs on the farm at this time of year now that harvest is over. We then made it to the woods where we searched, collected and even accessorised our own stickman! We then reminded ourselves about the first part of the story and then made our own Stickman nest in our groups.

Next we went to the beach and continued our stickman adventure by making our stickman sandcastle. We used our imaginations to retell the story using natural materials linking real life objects and wildlife to the text. The collaboration and team work was wonderful to see and hear, we even did a show and tell feedback session so everyone had to present what they had made. Everyone worked really hard so we had a treat of a playing at the play park as a reward. Then back at school we recalled the story and made bird feeders.

A very special day and everyone admired their super listening and team work
