We have been learning about the heart in Science this half term. In this lesson, we wanted to find out how and why our heart rate increases. The class tried different exercises before measuring and counting their pulse to find out the beats per minute. 

Thank you parents for sending your little pirates into school.

Ahoy there Mateys!  Children learnt to speak using pirate phrases.

They really enjoyed art, treasure chest activities and controlling bee bots to find points on a map!

After weeks of practise, Year 2 performed their pirate dances to Year 1 and Mrs Parker.

A huge congratulations to the four children who represented Tameside in the Greater Manchester Cross Country Championships on Saturday competing on a very muddy course! We are so proud of you!

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!
