Sharing Spy stories with Year 3!

During their Spy topic, Year 5 worked extremely hard to perfect their Spy Narratives, which they wrote with Year 3 as their audience.  They created spies, villains and suitable settings for their adventures to take place!  Children from Year 3 enjoyed the story telling and they had the opportunity afterwards to identify the characters from the drawings that Year 5 had drawn!  Thank you everyone for being such brilliant writers and listeners!  Mrs Blomeley                             


Palaeontologists

This morning, year 1 arrived at school to find footprints, fossils and eggs in the classroom! The children quickly became Archaeologists and used their skills in pairs to carefully crack open the eggs. The children found different dinosaurs in them! When the children learned that the footprints must have come from a dinosaur, they became Palaeontologists and used different tools delicately to find fossils and dinosaurs. The children could identify and name some of the dinosaurs / fossils.


Skill for Life - Responsibility

In my assembly today I introduced the word and skill of the half term - Responsibility. We are ensuring our pupils are building these skills for their future in life and employment. We discussed taking ownership and control of our behaviour. I will be picking one child from each class who has shown this over January and February.
