Weather In Gillamoor

On Wednesday 9th November 2016 we had snow (and lots of it!!!) It layered the hole floor and it was 6 inches at Jasmines house. It was very cold and so it rained, so last night it all froze over and became really icy. People slid around on  the road and we saw one in the bushes on Harland moor. People got there Winter Wollies out such as gloves, wellies, scarfs and hats. We have got a quote from Esme she says…..

Megan says : My friend was out snow ploughing yesterday near Fadmoor.

Rosie says : Yesterday morning it was snowing a little bit.

Jasmine says : I enjoy the winter because you get to snuggle up in warm clothes.

Hannah says : I’m excited  for snow but sadly were I live there is n o snow.

Elizabeth says : I love snow. It’s epic my dad snow ploughset . in the winter so I sometimes get a lift.

Emilia says: Nice because it is magical and is like Winter Wonderland.

Brooches

On the 18th of may we may we made brooches with Miss Sanderson. we made these brooches because our topic is Anglo Saxons(we also made a typical Anglo-Saxon warrior/farmer.) We used some bits of wood, some pompoms and clip on brooch pads. We also used pipe cleaners to make fancy patterns. Some people drew on some metal and stuck it on and some people made it 3D. There is a lot of different types of brooches including radiant and long headed.

 

Forest Schools

Every Tuesday at school we go outside to do forest schools. This is a mixture of P.E and outside education. This also will go on for 6 more weeks. Cathy led the day and I found it very enjoyable. We found out little fun facts about nature While we were doing our team challenges. It was really fun!

Bonfires!

On Friday the 6th there was a bonfire on the football pitch in Fadmoor. We saw lots of fireworks there was different colours and it lit up the sky. It was fun,and phil leverington brought food and drink. The curry was delicious.

I went to Farndale Show in the summer holidays. I entered a lot of things in the junior tent including my favourite poem and a painting. I went with Grandma and when we got there I found Esme, Georgia, Ruben and Hannah with Phoebe the puppy waiting til the junior tent opened. We walked round the fields and saw the cows, the goats, the sheep, the horses and even the llamas! Me and Esme went to go and have a look around the horse field and we found a fudge stall and we tried some of the tasters. They were amazing! We went round to see if there was anything else we wanted to buy but there wasn’t so we went to find the fudge stall again but on the way I bumped into Emma. We went to buy the fudge and then Emma wanted to show us her animals in cavies tent. It was quite wet but we were in the tents so

Car parking is £3 on Showfields, with Free Parking Nearby. Any enquiries on any aspe

we didn’t get rained on. It stopped raining after a bit so we went and we found out that the fancy dress was starting soon. Me, Hannah, Ruben and Georgia were sheep and Esme was the sheepdog – and we won first prize! We got some sweets and some money for winning. Next I went to the hook-a-duck and I won a inflatable hammer. It was a really fun day and can you believe I won four 2nds in the junior tent!!! 😀

Tennis

On Friday 12th of July 2015 some of the children at Gillamoor went to Ryedale school to enter a tennis competition. First we all got told were our first match is and who we are against and how the points work. We all got sent to a court to play our first game of tennis. It was in the afternoon between 1:30 -3:00. The schools we played were Kirkbymoorside and Nawton. The year 3 and 4’s did really well and the year 5 and 6’s managed to win every match. Overall we won the competition!
