Well done to our superstars who won stars who shared their achievements in assembly this week.

Year 5 paid Year 2 a visit to share their research about a planet from our solar system. Year 2 demonstrated excellent listening skills and the Year 5's enjoyed sharing their knowledge. 

As part of Science week, we have created our own planets using water colours and we used chalk to create our backgrounds. We also tried some foods that Astronauts would eat in Space. We tried different ‘Freeze dried’ fruits!

Check out some pieces from year 3 writers. They have been creating persuasive pieces encouraging families to join our school. I did not bribe them with chocolate at all! 

Today, we had a fabulous chocolate workshop to celebrate Black History Month. Our governor, Agnus Fough showed the children how chocolate is made and how it is transported to the UK. Then they tasted three different types of chocolate and voted which one that they liked the best. It was lots of fun and we all learnt a lot. Thank you Agnes!

Today we have used different mediums to complete our finished Lowry inspired pictures. We have created matchstick men in front of either Dukinfield Town Hall, Portland Basin or Tennyson Avenue. The finished work will be displayed in our Art Gallery. 

To celebrate World Space Week year 3 have created planets that are out of this world. We have also been watching clips on BBC about how the planets orbit the sun. Our guided reading work has been all about the Solar System too.

Year 5 have learnt about the planets in our solar system for this half term's Earth and Space topic. Today, they created their own planet using oil pastels as a medium, and wrote a fact file to accompany it. 

Year 6 have really been improving their skills and managed a small team tournament today. Great work Y6!

Agnes, our school governor visited Year 2 and talked about chocolate! Agnes came from Ghana, West Africa. Children learnt where cocoa came from.  They even got to taste some.
