Clubs
Here at Roundswell Community Primary Academy, each term we have some fantastic clubs led by teachers. There is also a football club led by an external company called Romar Sports. More information on the weekly newsletters.
Art Club
The children have really enjoyed Art Club and have shown real enthusiasm. Thankyou to those of you who kindly bought in any items we requested in order to make some exciting pieces of art!
Oscar and Emily created these amazing halloween creations at home! Well done, you've done an amazing job! We are always proud to showcase all of the children's work done both at home and at school.
Outdoor Learning
Every year, we like to create our own school scarecrow to donate to Arlington Court. Arlington Court then use our scarecrow along with other donated scarecrows to create a trail for visitors to enjoy. Arlington court usually do a pumpkin trail in October to celebrate Halloween. If you visit Arlington Court, have a look and see if you can spot a creation from our school!
In the Spring term, our children have been focusing on leaves and the different textures of leaves underneath paper. They experimented colouring paper over the top of various leaves to see what pattern they could create.
Miss Galliford found a small frog in our forest school which the children were very excited to meet! The small frog has become quite the celebrity of the Forest School!
In the Summer term, the children have been helping to create a welcoming and safe place for children to learn outside. They have been learning how to grow fruit and vegetables, sowing seeds and planting flowers, they have made a scarecrow to protect the crop, helped to build growing structures and a large den, weaved long grass for make bird nest, made their own stencils using leaves and mud, provided resources for a national bird watch, used natural resources to create eggs for a hunt, enjoyed sharing stories around their very own seating area and even taken some grown produce home! Outdoor learning has encouraged all children in the school to get involved by painting pebbles to place in the area and helped to plant over 100 trees, enabling the area to develop further to enrich the learning opportunities and fun to be had.
The children have taken part in creative activities to support local festivities. They created a Christmas tree for Arlington Court, made Pudsey bear faces and created a snowman made of tyres to welcome visitors to our Christmas Fair!

In Games Club, the children are taught how to play different games. Many of the games, the children are familiar with but there are a few they were unfamiliar with and so had to learn the rules. The children are learning to work individually, using their own initiative but also to work as part of a team and problem solve.

Running Club
In Running Club, we have been practising our starting positions to make sure we set off as quick as we can! We have practised long runs, short runs and relays. The children have really impressed us with their running technique!
Story Square Club
In our 'Story Square' sessions we read and share a chosen book and then take part in different activities linked to the book. Sometimes we role play the characters, sometimes we talk about how they feel throughout the story and sometimes we draw pictures. Over time the children take the lead in the roles too.

In Cookery Club the children have been preparing dishes and learning to chop food safely, read instructions and cook different snacks e.g. rainbow salad, pizza, shortbread, apple crumble. It has been great fun! Take a look at the links below for the recipes.
