Aqua Class

In Aqua class we have ten children, ranging from Year 3 to Year 5.  We are all inquisitive and like to ask lots of questions about the wider world. Every week we take part in a variety of curriculum subject areas and have also enjoyed mindfulness on a Tuesday afternoon. In Aqua class we like be active, taking part in daily GoNoodle and Mendip Mile sessions, as well as embracing Yoga and relaxation. Alongside our learning, we also have time to develop our social skills, through playing games and having space to use our imagination. These opportunities have allowed us to develop our turn taking and sharing skills.
