As part of our computing topic, we’ve been learning how to edit photos using filters 📱 Using iPads, one child confidently explained the process, helping others follow along and access the tutorial 👏 #DigitalSkills #Computing @OliveTreeBolton

Yesterday we had an exciting visit from The History Guy who came to talk all things explorers @OliveTreeBolton #historyguy #handsonlearning #year2

Can you guess where year 2 went today? @OliveTreeBolton

Day 2 of #BritishScienceWeek and we start the day with an assembly from @TheRoyalInstitution. The children are hooked @OliveTreeBolton @AbolarinTseni

What a way to start #BritishScienceWeek then an assembly with @madscience thanks to @AbolarinTseni @OliveTreeBolton

Year 2 received a special message from NASA yesterday! 🚀 Working in their Trailblazer groups, the children designed and created their own moon buggies, making sure they were light enough to travel to the Moon. 🌕

We've brought our drawings of our mums to life using an animation app for #WorldBookDay! This creative project enhances digital literacy, boosts artistic expression, and fosters storytelling skills @twinkleyschools @OliveTreeBolton @Scholastic @SchoolReading

Proud moment! 🌟 With the help of iPads, this SEND pupil was able to plan and write their own diary entry. Technology helping to unlock confidence and creativity in writing! ✏️@OliveTreeBolton @Talk4Writing

In Computing this week, we have been learning how to take a good photo. We explored the difference between landscape and portrait and practised using both when taking our own pictures! 📸 @OliveTreeBolton

Using our iPads we have innovated the story of The Very Hungry Caterpillar by adding their own favorite foods, showcasing our storytelling, digital skills, and imagination. Excited to see their unique twists! @twinkleyschools @OliveTreeBolton @Showbie @PieCorbett #oracy #EYFS

This week, we started reading our new text, Little Red Riding Hood. To spark our imaginations, we had a special visitor – Little Red herself! We asked thoughtful questions and had great fun role-playing different characters from the story. What an exciting start to our adventure!

This week we began our writing journey using @Talk4Writing to explore the rich vocabulary in The Pirate Cruncher! Using Word Up, we hunted for powerful verbs and acted them out to bring the story to life. 🏴‍☠️📚 @OliveTreeBolton @PieCorbett

This is why we use iPads. Our children have access to a live recording of our teacher model #justsaying

We had great fun being introduced to riddles this term! Following our @Talk4Writing unit, Year 2 were able to invent their own riddles. They published and performed them. Such fantastic creativity and confidence! ✨📚 can you solve any of them? @PieCorbett @OliveTreeBolton

What a mess! 🎨 Year 2 had such a fun afternoon creating sculptures in the style of Alberto Giacometti. Messy, creative, and brilliant! 🖌️🗿 #Year2 #Art #Giacometti @OliveTreeBolton

Exploring the world of veggies with Grandpa! We dove into 'Oliver's Vegetables'—handling, smelling, and even tasting fresh produce. A fun and flavorful learning experience! @OliveTreeBolton @twinkleyschools @EYTalking  @NurseryWorld @EarlyExcellence  #primaryedutwitter

🌱 Today Year 2 worked in their Trailblazer groups to investigate the scientific question: What are the best conditions to grow a plant? Brilliant teamwork and curiosity! 🌿🔍 #Year2 #Science #Trailblazers @OliveTreeBolton @AbolarinTseni

Two weeks of @Talk4Writing magic in our Reception class. Using Handa’s Surprise, we’ve immersed, mapped, innovated and today we’re so proud to share the final innovated write! Early writing at its best. @PieCorbett @OliveTreeBolton @twinkleyschools #EdTech @Showbie •@EYFSchat

We explored the fruit Handa surprised us with today. Trying new fruits sparked curiosity and lots of descriptive talk — building confidence, vocabulary and those very important oracy skills.  @OliveTreeBolton @Miss_M_Patel

Year 4 really enjoy Thursday afternoons and our weekly visit from Mrs Atcha for Arabic. We have been learning how to have conversations with our peers showing understanding of the different genders of the language. @OliveTreeBolton #arabic
