Welcome to Bullfinch
Birds, birds and more birds! Sketching to begin our new unit in art.
Hunting for minibeasts in science.
Music and movement work with Gill. Such great listening!
We wish you all a very happy Christmas. Thank you for all your support and for all the lovely gifts you have given us. With love from all the Bullfinch team
A wonderful Christmas party! So much fun had by all.
We’ve done it! Our finger puppets are finally finished and have found their way to their new homes tonight! Lots of hard work, determination and resilience to complete this project. Happy smiles today!
Christmas lunch and a wonderful Nativity!
The recent shape work we have been doing has been tricky, but using rulers and the squared paper in our maths journals has simplified things!
Our Learning Event - it was lovely to share all our learning with our families. We had such a lot to show them with all the work from school and our home learning too. We enjoyed playing some games about traditional tales and making up our own stories with a story box. It was great to see parents taking part in the role play too! We celebrated at the end with a delicious piggy cake after singing our hearts out as pigs and wolves!
Three Little Pigs - singing for our parents at our Learning Event

Year 5 and 6 came to share our Three Little Pig Retellings with us. They were impressed with our clever storytelling and recounted their time in Bullfinch.
A fun afternoon exploring how easy it is to melt cheese, chocolate and marshmallows. Bullfinch were such smart scientists and worked so safely with fire too.
Role play and drama - such great storytellers of The Three Little Pigs. Such great expression used with voices for all characters.
We enjoyed a pre half term treat! A decorated iced biscuit!
We explored the capillary action!
We were so lucky to welcome Randal to our school again. He was an educator in America before he retired and loves sharing his music whenever he can so when we heard he was back visiting in the UK, we made sure he stopped in with us. The children had an amazing afternoon learning new songs and enjoying old favourites.
We love bringing Science to life and kick started our work on materials with a focus on paper. We were all amazed by the strength of it!
Our DT bench - We have been very excited about the opening of our new workbench and have worked together to ensure we always use the tools sensibly and safely.
Parachute games to help our social and cooperative skills. We had to work together to make the parachute into different shapes. We're going to be a great team!
Welcome to Bullfinch Presentation 2024
Welcome to Bullfinch - Information Presentation
Our latest DT project involves wheels and axles. Look at our moon buggies start to take shape!
We had the opportunity to take part in a friendly netball and football tournament. Both teams played superbly and were a credit to our school! Well done.
Space! We have been linking our topic to our art, history and writing. Have a look at some of our work.
Our Christmas donkey photos brought out our creative sides!
DT - chopping, slicing and grating skills were perfected in order to create delicious, nutritious salads. We were taste adventurers too and all had a go tasting something new!
We collected leaves and other natural produce to create some art ephemera like Andy Goldsworty. The leaves also inspired us to learn some printing techniques and write some wonderful poetry.
We were so lucky to have 2 retired American Lecturers come to our school to lead some music workshops. It was such a lot of fun to learn some new songs. We were worn out from all the actions. Thanks must go to Randall and John for giving of their time so generously.
Our Self Portrait art work involved creating an image of ourselves in the style of Andy Warhol. We enjoyed this pop art! Can you guess who is who from this selection?
We carried out an ice cube experiment this afternoon! We made predictions and then timed how long they took to melt in different places. Of course, we used one or two to cool us down too! Can you believe the one in the classroom took almost 1 hour and 30 minutes! Our predictions for that one were way off!
Working with our beautiful sunflowers
Our year two children deserved to celebrate today! Lots of fun had by all.
A delicious fruit salad! We loved our DT work today.
