We are so lucky to have delicious apples growing in our very own playground. This week, we’ve used the fallen apples to make our very own apple juice using a fruit press. We also looked at the variety of apples that grow around the world to link with our topic.
This week’s spelling task is to learn the homophones you were given last week. You’ll be tested on some of these words on Thursday 20 September.

Well done to all the children who sent in a postcard from their summer holiday. It was lovely to read about the fantastic places you visited. We had postcards from various places in the UK and a postcard as far away as Thailand! We have displayed all the postcards in the hall for everybody to read.
Well done to Lilly and Jack, who are the winners of our writing summer challenge. Their writing was clear and told us a lot about what they did on their holiday.
Well done everybody for producing some very creative, imaginative and interesting pieces of creative homework this week. Here are some highlights…
Today, we tasted various breads from around the world. We tasted and evaluated naan, tortilla, fruit bread, brioche and many more. This is in preparation for our Great Wetherby Bake Off, next week.
In the holidays, Mr Suttle helped the school by lending us one of his vans from his company: Suttle Transport Services Limited. He helped us to transport some materials to Scholes. We want to say a big thank you, we really appreciate your support!
