Today we invited parents and carers to come and have a coffee, a chat and take part in a reading quiz. It was a packed hall with some very competitive parents! Miles, William and their nana won and it was very well-deserved-thank you everyone for coming-we hope you enjoyed it as much as we did!
Some of our year 5 children had a great time representing our school at a Boccia festival. They demonstrated great sportsmanship and had a lot of fun. Well done year 5!
We have loved learning about William Morris this term and his use of repeating patterns in art and textiles. We created some fantastic art work of our own and then went outside to see what repeating patterns we could create using natural resources. Take a look at us in action!
Today, Year 3 have been investigating the strength of different magnets. We tested to see how many paperclips each magnet could attract in 3 seconds.
Today, M and M Theatre Group came into school with their Robin Hood Panto (oh yes they did!) And we had a great time-oh yes we did! We sang, we laughed, we jeered and we clapped-what a great start to the day for us all!
Today we looked at friction-what it is and why it is important. We used blocks with different surfaces to see which created the most friction. We measured this in N using a Newton Metre. We made some great predictions and had a great time investigating!
Year 3 have been learning about magnets in Science today. We know that if you put 2 of the same pole together, the magnet will repel but if the poles are different they will attract.
We investigated which objects in the classroom were magnetic. We were surprised by some of the results.
This week in Year 1, we have been learning all about the human body! The children had great fun exploring the different parts of the body and learning their names. We even drew around one of our classmates to create a life-sized outline, then worked together to label all the body parts we could name — from head to toes! The activity helped us
Year 3 have used oil pastels to create a winter scene. Take a look at their fabulous creations!
Today we looked at using yoga and breathing techniques to relax. We focused on our breathing, slowing it to calm down and then focused on the poses to ground ourselves-we were amazing!
