Marvellous Mathletics by Year 3 children especially to our GOLD award winner- the first child to achieve a gold certificate in the whole school!

It was a chilly forest school session but we warmed up by playing games, making whittled Santa Clauses and having hot chocolate and delicious s'mores. Everyone enjoyed finding the "ice sculptures"! 

Some of our Year 2 girls took part in the Disney Football Fest on Thursday. They loved dressing up as their favourite Disney characters and played some great football matches against Parochial and Hurst Knoll winning both of their games without conceding any goals. Well done girls! 

Well done to our superstars Summer and Theo this week.

I was very impressed with the whole class during our evolution workshop but Theo particulary impressed me with his knowledge and enthusiasm. 

Summer has been finessing her basketball skills in PE.

Faye and Amelia are our Good to be Green winners.

Lucy and Jake won the Vocabulary Ninja Award for their ambitious vocabulary in their writing.

A huge well done to all of our Bronze Award winners- we only have a few left until the whole class have Bronze. 

Well done to these children who were awarded a head teachers award, a good to be Green pencil and a swimming badge! Year 3 also won the sports trophy for this week! Take a look at our sports leaders holding the trophy for the class. 

Well done to all our award winners in Year 4 this week. There were lots of awards given out. Fantastic work Year 4. 

Yesterday Year 6 had a go at being palaeontologists sorting and classify different fossils and minerals. We looked at a huge range of fossils including mammoth hair, fossilised poo and even a megalodon tooth. Please have a look at Mr B's free website with more fossils to explore: www.360museum.co.uk/

Year 4 have worked cooperatively to complete the countries jigsaw. It look a lot of stamina and knowledge to find the capital cities to match the countries. Well done Year 4. Congratulations to Toby, Logan, Sophia and Chloe who finished first and got to write a quiz for the class. 

We have had a fun-packed morning in our science workshop. We found out more about the theory of evolution and how humans have evolved- Jake made a great homo australopithecus with his cute monkey face. We played a few 'survival of the fittest' games to fully understand Darwin's theory of natural selection. We then recapped on the names of the human skeleton and talked about how homo sapiens can complete many different tasks which other animals cannot. We then had a PE session to put on a show as the best human specimens we could be.

In Gardening Club we have sown some seeds ready for the spring. We are looking forward to tasting our coriander, radishes and sprouts. Next week we will plant some more vegetables to make some vegetable soup.
