Stonefields School's first Triathlon!

It was great to see so many learners for LH2 participating in the triathlon today. After biking, swimming and running the long course it is not surprising our learners were very tired by the end of the day!

Disco Fun!

Check out some of our learners having a great time at the disco last Friday!

Art for the Disco!

Some learners from LH2 have been creating some art for the enchanted forest disco tomorrow night.

Their art is going to look fantastic at the disco! Keep an eye out for it!  

Our first trusted learners

In Hub 2 we now have quite a group of trusted learners!


Each child has made an appointment with the teacher and explained lots of reasons why they should receive a trust licence. The teachers were really impressed with all the ideas these children shared and have been equally impressed with how they have used their extra trust so far.

Today some of us took a risk and went on stage at assembly to share our Mihi!

Describing movie characters.

We have been writing descriptions of characters. We have talked about how we can publish in the best way to suit the audience we want to read our writing. These writers have chosen to publish their writing on the blog.

Here are our success criteria. Do you have any feedback for us?

It has lots of information: ·       Uses most of the senses (looks like, sounds like, feels like, smells like, does…) ·       You can imagine this thing easily.

It is interesting to read – it might have lots of detail or it might be funny.

It tells a little mini story about that character.

It has all the capital letters and full stops you need.

It has to have at least one simile.

The information is grouped – what it looks like and what it does.

The  sentences start differently.

Mugdha's description of Ariel.

Jessica's description of Olaf.

Emily's description of Elsa.

Dhevan's description of Emmett.

Jake's description of Lego Spider Man.

Blair's description of Spider Man.

Today we got a chance to explore spelling city! 

This is going to be part of our rotation of weekly activities to help us improve our literacy learning.  It's going to be used when we learn spelling rules, practice handwriting and dance mat typing.

If you would like to use spelling city at home, click on the 'Literacy' tab on the LH2 site and you'll see the link.  EASY!

Here are some photos of the Year 3s teaching the Year 2s how to use the site
