Epiphany

On the 6 th January we celebrated the feast of the Epiphany. This is when the Wise Men visited Jesus following the star. The whole school went to Mass. We sang: We Three Kings; The First Nowell and a famous children’s carol called, ‘Come to the Manger’. Two reception children (Penny and Harry) and Ryan from year 1 carried the kings to the crib at the front of the church. Mrs Pearson said, “The singing in church was beautiful.”

What happens when you dont brush your teeth?

Year 4 did an experiment last week based on what happens when you do not brush your teeth for a week. I interviewed Maya, Amy and Oliver. This is what they told me.

They filled some cups with Ribena, tea, orange juice, coca cola and Fanta and then placed a hard-boiled egg in each. Oliver said,“The shell of the egg is a similar substance to our teeth.” The egg shell of the one in coca cola turned really dark. The one in Ribena turned mouldy. The one in tea got darker. The shell of the egg in orange juice cracked. The shell of the egg in Fanta had dots all over it.

Miss told us that this experiments teaches the children that they should brush their teeth.Here are some pictures:
