To celebrate World Book day year 6 brought in some of their favourite books from home to read and share with their friends.

This week Year 6 have created some emotional poems based on a migrant's story in our class text 'The Arrival' 

We have made our poems into our own class book which will be proudly displayed in the library for others to read. Please look through the photographs at all of their wonderful pieces of work. 

Thank you to our Reading Ambassadors and Librarians for their help during World Book Day. They received a certificate in assembly today :)

We will meet next week to look at the top hat designs and choose our winners...

Today we are celebrating World Book Day, we have come to school dressed as our favourite book character and shared our favourite stories. We  also had two special visitors read to nursery this week Miss Spalding and Mrs Parker, what a special week!

Great work to Year 4 this week. I'm highly impressed at how many children are recalling their times tables immediately and their detailed drawings. A special well done to our merit and pencil winners today. 

Year 4 had a fantastic day completing the sport's reading quiz, emoji quiz, being read to and listening to an author. They look absolutely amazing today in their costumes too. We're continuing our love of reading by inviting Mrs Blomeley into read in class today and creating our Tudor non-fiction book. Check out the blogs next week for more reading updates. 

Today our Reading Ambassadors and Librarians worked together to organise and put on a book quiz at lunchtimes for the school. They helped the children work out emoji clues to guess the fairytale, nursery rhyme or children's book. The children have worked so hard on identifying books and we are really impressed with their efforts and how many books they could recognise.

Thank you so much to our Reading Ambassadors and Librarians :)

Year 6 have enjoyed their story time this week with Mrs Laitl and Miss Lewis. Mrs Laitl read 'Głodna gąsienica' 'The Hungry Caterpillar' in Polish. It was lovely to see the children recognising some of the language like days of the week and vegetables. Miss Lewis entertained us with one of her favourite stories 'The Wonky Donkey.'

Year 6 enjoyed the Footy & Book Quiz that we took part in today as part of our World Book Day celebrations. 3 teams came joint first with a score of 17/20!

Today in computing, the children created a sequence of instructions (an algorithm) to draw a shape of a numeral e.g. 3. Firstly, we discussed what an algorithm is (an instruction / set of rules) for performing a task. The children created the algorithms in pairs or small groups using the Bee-bots to navigate their route, tracing the shape of the numeral. The children successfully worked out the algorithms for the numbers: 0, 1, 7, 5, 2 and 6.
