Creative cards

This year, we decided to allow the children to bring in their own bits and bobs to make their Christmas cards utterly unique. Every single one was wonderfully original.

Party time!

Festive fun has been had by all this afternoon! We've had a team paper chain competition.....












A newspaper fashion show on our class catwalk....


















Fan the fish was a hit!



And finally, our 'bad dancing' competition....everyone had a go at showing their 'worst' moves. Have they been inspired by their parents we wonder?!










Thanks for a really fun afternoon, Class 9. Mrs Adams and Mrs Beer really enjoyed watching you enjoying yourself!

Step back in time...

I'm amazed at how detailed these Tudor houses are. Didn't Class 9 do a fantastic job? A wonderful Tudor street scene.

Challah bread

Look at what we had brought into school this morning! It's great when a pupil is inspired by something they've learnt in class. What a lovely surprise to have our very own loaf of Challah bread made. This bread forms part of the Jewish celebration called Shabbat. It was delicious too! Thankyou so much.

Tudor house afternoon

Class 9 have had a busy afternoon learning all about Tudor buildings. While some of us painted some models of Tudor houses, others researched their unique features using an ipad. We even had some children keen to take on the role of estate agents, writing a persuasive piece to entice a client to buy a Tudor house. Terrific!

Clay faces

Class 9 loved making these clay faces as part of their 'Portrait' unit in Art. They have all really enjoyed their Tuesday carousel sessions with Miss Browne.

Dates for the last week of term 2

Well done everyone for a great Term 1 and 2! We are still working hard in the run up to the Christmas break and our classroom is starting to look quite festive now.....



Don't forget, it's the school Christmas lunch on Tuesday 17th December and we plan to have our Class 9 party on the afternoon of the 18th. Please could children bring in a small plate/tub of food for themselves that they can enjoy during the party. This is in addition to their normal packed lunch or school dinner. Children should wear their school uniform for the party, although they are welcome to bring in some festive headgear to wear!

We will be having a non uniform day on Thursday 19th December.

The Christmas service will be held on Friday 20th December at St Peter's Church at 10am.

Welcome to Class 9

We trust you have all had a relaxing break over the holidays. We wanted to take this opportunity to tell you a little more about ourselves. As you will have already gathered, Class 9 is a job-share class, with two teachers. On a Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, Mrs Beer is the class teacher. On a Friday, Mrs Adams is the class teacher.



We are both experienced teachers who have taught at Henleaze for over 10 years. Mrs Adams is also our Maths Support Teacher, who works with groups across the whole school on a Tuesday and Wednesday. On a Friday, Mrs Adams will be teaching Spelling, Tables, Science and Games. Mrs Beer will teach the remainder of the curriculum Monday to Thursday.



We’d like to take this opportunity to mention that although we teach on different days, do feel free to approach either of us at any time if you need to discuss anything. For example, you can still talk to Mrs Beer about something that may have happened on a ‘Mrs Adams’ day, or vice versa. We both meet weekly, and – as we remind the children – are frequently in touch by telephone, text and e-mail. We also write our weekly feedback in a ‘communication book’ for each other. Where possible, we both deliver Parent’s Evenings, conduct assessments, attend school events and write reports together.
