Well done to this weeks Head-teacher and Good to be Green awards! Thank you for putting in 100% effort into your work/behaviour. Well done to R who has won a 'lady of the match' at her football club outside of school. Keep up the hard work everybody!

Congratulations to our Stars this week Jenson and Riley.

Jenson is a conscientious hardworking boy who puts his full effort into each and every task.

Riley is a great sportsman who has recently demonstrated his skill and teamwork during his volleyball sessions.

Head Boy and Head Girl Xander and Kasia both received the good to be green awards for their extemporary behaviour and attitude to learning.

Year 6 have been finessing ther volleyball skills over the last few weeks. They have been practising how to serve and keep the ball in the air by digging up to each other. They have discussed how teamwork is vital to make sure they communicate to pass the ball between each other and to make sure that the same person doesn't touch the ball twice consecutively.

I am impressed with your commitment to this year 6. 

Congratulations to the children who have received their Head Teacher's Award and Good to be Green pencils today. Well done!

This week we have celebrated Chinese New Year. We found out it is the year of the rabbit. We painted dragons, created lanterns using the lucky colour red and tasted spring rolls, egg fried rice and prawn crackers. It was delicious!

We have been sharing the story Meg and Mog. Meg creates some wonderful spells in the stories and we will making our own potions in nursery soon, how exciting!

We love our Mog pictures.

Today has been a record for certificates in Year 4. A massive congratulations to all the children who received the class merit award, the Good to be Green pencils and their silver awards. The class has also earned their class compliments award and a message will be coming out next week about what they have chosen to do for their prize. Well done all of Year 4. 

Year 4 are excited to start our electricity topic next week. It will be launched by the coding electrical workshop of Tuesday. They will be learning all about electrical safety, electrical components, electrical circuits and electrical conductors and insulators. Keep reading our blogs to find out more about our super science topic. 

Today year 6 explored some sources of evidence about the Vikings. They had to examine each source closely to prove some statements found in history books about the Vikings.

We found out that Vikings did not have horned helmets; they settled in towns and villages with farms; they were skilled craftsmen who traded with other parts of the world. 

Great detective work year 6. 

Prior to our science topic about the heart and the circulatory system, year 6 watched a BBC Live lesson today. The children were fascinated to find out how the heart pumps around 6 litres of blood around the body per minute. We found out about how the circulatory system delivers oxygenated and deoxygenated blood around the body. We discovered ways to keep our heart healthy too.

What a great way to introduce our topic.
