Safe squad workshops

Year 6 enjoyed their Safe Squad workshops yesterday.

We learned about antisocial behaviour and hate crime. We know to ring 101 if we need to report anything. They enjoyed their Esafety workshop discussing how to keep ourselves safe on socal media. We then looked at how to be aware of potential fire hazards at home and had some basic training on how to perform CPR.

A very worthwhile session. 


British Science Week

Year 1 had a fantastic time taking part in British Science Week. We had an afternoon of experiments - making rainbows with skittles, making potions change colour and explode and trying to get paper to stick to a cup using just water. We also shared these experiments with Year 2 and learnt about what they had been doing in Science week. Year 1 also took part in a competition innovating products that could be used in the classroom. A big well done to Charlie and Sophia who won the competition with their amazing designs.

Nothing beats a good book...

Year 6 enjoyed a nice relaxful start to our Friday enjoying a book in our newly revamped library.

Thank you to all of the librarians for choosing our comfy new beanbags and for deciding how to rearrange the library and surrounding display boards.

I don't know about you but could sit in there all day long!!


Y6 Science competition

Here is a selection of the competition entries in Y6 for the 'innovate a product for your classroom' design.

The children have designed new innovations which would be useful for every day school life.

Well done to our two winners Adam and Kacie :)


Super Inventors

All Year 3 entered British Science Week Competition with their amazing classroom inventions. We had cleaning robots, first aid robots and air purifying device! It was incredibly hard to select winning designs. They were all brilliant! These are our winners... Congratulation Lucy, Nasir, Isobel and Isabelle!

 


Y6 Stars of the week 12-3-21

Holly wrote a beautiful poem based on our class text 'The Arrival' I was very impressed. 

Isabella wowed us with her determination and courage during bikeability.

Aidan won a headteacher's certificate this week for his mature and enthusiastic attitude towards learning.

Our science competition winners are Adam and Kacie for their innovative designs.


Year 1 Forest School Week 1

Year 1 had a fantastic time in their forest school session today.  They played a sensory game trying to identify a tree while being blind folded, had a fun game of tree tig, found some pretty catkins and played in the mud kitchen.  We also learned some tree names like Alder, Silver Birch, Hazel and Oak.


Science week

In Year 3 looked and spoke about innovations and what was meant by the term innovation. Children designed acrostic innovation poems and completed activities about classrooms of the future.  We can't wait to see the designs children complete at home for the science competition.

At home, children asked parents about their jobs, we shared these in class. Did you know engineers, food production managers and even hairdressers use science in their jobs. 

We watched an online live DNA detectives lesson by Dr Mandy where we learnt interesting facts about DNA.


Super Science

What an amazing time we had this week using our outdoors to identify habitats. Initially we made some bird feeders and placed them around the school grounds to encourage wildlife. Then we went on a bug hunt. We were aghast at how many insects we found, we were especially impressed that we found a toad hiding in one of our Forest School areas.
