Today, Year 4 learnt all about how the rich and poor people lived during Tudor times. We learnt about the type of food they would have eaten, their housing and their clothing. We even got to go on a virtual tour of Hampton Court Palace and try on some Tudor clothing. 

We all had a great time celebrating Chinese New Year. We made lanterns, took part in a dragon dance and tasted yummy food!

Take part in Children's Mental Health Week this week from home. 

This week, we're focusing on our theme of Know Yourself, Grow Yourself. We want to equip and empower children and the adults who surround them to embrace self-awareness and explore what it means to them.

Well done to our Year 6 girls who organised and talked in assembly about our class author- Tony Bradman. Great work girls and thank you. 

The Reading Ambassadors set the whole school a challenge to research a famous author to share in assembly. Today each class shared some facts about their chosen authors including Michael Rosen, Francesca Simon, Tom Fletcher, Jeff Kinney, Katherine Rundell and Tony Bradman.

Thank you for sharing your facts and please look out for these author books in our library. 

Year 6 were tasked with making a Viking Longboat in any way shape or form that they chose. As you can see the results are phenomenal. Well done Year 6, I hope you enjoyed your creative home learning project this half term. 

Lots of fun was had at the Year 5 and 6 athletics competition on Thursday where we came 4th in our heat. Well done to everyone for your fantastic throwing, jumping and running, you were all amazing! 

More Bronze Awards this week for achieving 100 Star points which is amazing!  Headteacher's certificates were given for brilliant recall of facts from our class reading sessions and for being kind and considerate to others.  Good to be Green awards were given, as always, for following our school rules of being Ready, Respectful and Safe.  This half term's handwriting award was presented for consistently joined and well-formed handwriting.  Well done everyone!  Mrs Blomeley

Congratulations to the Year 2 children who received certificates this morning. We had Headteacher's Award for great persuasive writing and effort in all subjects. There were two Good to be Green lottery winners and two children received their Bronze Awards. Well done!

Year 6 have been delivered a Dyson Cool to investigate. They were very intrigued to put it together, use the controls and investigate the mechanisms. What a great resource to be sent to school as it looks like we have a set of engineers in our midst!
