Book Look

Thank you for parents and carers who attended our book look. It was very successful and really nice to see faces in school again. 


Jubilee Draw A Long Session

Year 3 children really enjoyed a draw a long session with an author and illustrator Steve Antony. Steve shared his book The Qeen's Hat and showed us how to draw different characters from the book. The children drew fantastic picures of the Queen, her dog and the cheeky swan that stole her bag. 


Jubilee themed Art and Computing

Year 3 enjoyed wearing a crown and pretending to be a Queen or King.

We uploaded the photos and children learnt to edit them, did they make themselves look like the lived in 1952? Could they be a future Queen or King?

Editing photos is regularly done in 2022, we discussed how images can be easilly altered. We also ensured that we had permission before editing anyone else's photos.
