Year 4 enjoyed playing lots of different games in their well-being time this week. 

Year 6 have researched some Remembrance Day poems and have created some art work. 

Year 2 absolutely loved designing fire engines and making their own model fire engine!

They carefully planned their detailed designs.  Children learnt about wheels and axles and used them in their designs.

We are very impressed with their fabulous Design Technology skills.

Today we focused on creating symmetrical and asymmetrical balances using points (small body areas) and patches (large body parts) with a partner in a simple sequence.

Welcome back Nursery,

This half term we will be learning about Bonfire night, The Gingerbread Man and we will finish with Christmas celebrations! I have attached the Medium Term Plan and Home Learning Grid for anyone wanting to do some additional learning (this is entirely optional).

Year 6 looked closely at characteristics today and drew a representation of themselves in the form of Little Miss or Mr Men. 

Today we did some hot seating where we got into the role of our characters in Stone Age Boy to infer what they may say in the story. We had some great acting and super oracy skills were demonstrated through our speaking and listening whilst answering questions.

Head Girl and Head Boy met Ryder & Dutton today - to receive our Christmas Hamper. We are so grateful for all their donations and support! This will be in our raffle for the fair on 10th December. 

Yesterday, we found an envelope and lots of composer badges in our classroom. There was a letter from the English National Opera to tell us all about a project where they need our help composing to finish off a piece of music. We watched a video about the libretto 'Blue, Red, Yellow' and looked at how the composer was feeling and what he was thinking about when he thought of the different colours.

We enjoyed our first Science lesson this half term where we learnt that sound is caused by vibrations. We did some practical activities where we could see the vibrations including seeing rice dance on a drum and our class favourite, making the water jump up when we put the tuning forks into a bowl of water. We also went on a sound walk of the school to see what sounds we could hear and identify what was vibrating. We measured the volume of the sound using a data logger so that we could compare the volume across school in decibels.
