Yr3 - A thank you letter to Kuka Robotics

Thank you KUKA Robotics!

After our fantastic school trip to Kuka Robotics back in October we have been writing and typing thank you letters to all the staff for the wonderful experience they gave us.  The children have also drawn some excellent pictures of the robots we saw that day and decorated the thank you booklet.  The children have also picked their favorite pictures from their day at the robotics plant to share with Kuka.  Hope you enjoy.

Welcome back,
  I hope you all had a restful half-term. Year 4 has started the new term with daily swimming at Barry Leisure Centre.  We have settled into our new 'routine' and the children are looking forward to 'polish' their swimming techniques in the remaining two weeks.

The past week we have enjoyed two visits to our class to complement the new topic of '999 Emergencies. The pupils composed an array of interesting question to put forward to the Fire and Rescue team who looked in on us on Thursday afternoon. This was followed by a session on basic first aid instructions, expertly demonstrated by Mr. Groves. Tristan's dad kindly offered his knowledge and competent explanations to introduce this aspect of  'Emergency Care' to the class. We would like to thank him for his time again.


Here is Mr. Groves checking the 'airways', kindly helped by Ella.


A very competent and confident Georgia placing Evan in the 'Recovery Position'.


Mr. Groves volunteered his son Tristan to illustrate the 'Heimlich Manoeuvre'.

I hope you enjoyed this little update, signing off for now Mrs. Saye.
