Y6 Star of the week 3-2-23

Congratulations to our Stars of the Week Pasha and Henry.

Pasha has been working hard in class this week and he is putting a lot of effort into his home learning. I was impressed with his Viking biography which he completed for homework this week.

Henry has really worked hard in science this week and has accurately remembered lots of knowledge about the circulatory system. 

Well done to our Good to be Green Award winners Sam and Evan. 


Magic Wands

This week in nursery we have collected sticks to design and make magic wands. We have used a little bit of magic to create them and used the magic word Abracadabra!


Art in Year 3

Year 3 looked at the art work by the Japanese artist Hokusai. They used watercolours to create background washes and used oil pastels to create pictures of disasters.

These photos show children practising using oil pastels.


Partition Multiplication

Year 4 have started their first steps into short multiplication. They have been using their multiplication and place value knowledge to partition and multiply numbers together.  Look at their fantastic work. 


Marvellous Music

Year 4 are getting quite expert at playing their penny whistles. Today, they have continued to practise their notes, learn new songs, analyse rhythms and play along to Hallelujah and When the Saints go Marching in. We even sang one of my favourite song today- Mr Blue Sky by ELO. 


Book Look

Thank you to the families who joined us for our book look. We are very proud of the hard work our pupils are doing everyday - we are pleased you are too. There will be another opportunity soon. 


Positive Praise from Parents

Last night, Year 4 parents came to look at their children's books. Have a read of the lovely reponses they left for their children. What a fantastic positive evening. Thank you everyone for coming. 


Amazing Newspapers

Have a read of our wonderful newspaper reports about the missing lighthouse men from the Flannan Isles. The children worked really hard to ensure the features were covered and the facts explained. Well done Year 4. 


Wood cookie creations

Today in forest school we have been playing one of the groups favourite games - 1,2,3 Where are you? Then we made spinners and necklaces from wood cookies.
