Today, the children have been using Scratch Jr on the ipads in small groups to create simple algorithms. The children started the lesson by choosing a Sprite and a suitable backdrop. The children then explored some basic algorithms to get their sprite to move. The children were given s challenge to get their Sprite to move to create different shapes. The children took notes of the different algorithms that worked which they can refer back to next lesson.The children have also explored adding another Sprite and got both of their Sprites to move and have a conversation.

Well done to our two Easter Egg competition winners. 

Well done to all of the Year 2 children who created egg-cellent Easter Bonnets and Egg creations, you have all been very creative with your designs. Well done to our two winners, it was a very difficult decision to make but well deserved! Thank you to all of the children who took part in joining in with our Easter celebrations. 

Eggstatic entires this year, Ellie and Kai L are the winners!

Look at the Year 4 entries into the egg competition. As you can agree, they are truly eggceptional. 

Year 4 have worked brilliantly on their homework projects this half term making Tudor homes. Excellent work Year 4. 

Year 5 really enjoyed joining Year 6 for the Science Fair yesterday!  The activities were fun and varied; they included Rocket Launching, looking through Microscopes, making fingerprints, investigating smells, making electicical circuits, a space station and testing magnetism!  The Year 6 children were fantastic at demonstrating their Science skills!  Well done to all of you!  Mrs Blomeley

Year 1 went on a trip to Gorse Hall to see where Beatrix Potter's grandparents, John and Jane Leech, built the Gorse Hall mansion in 1836 of which the ruins can still be seen today. We were amazed to see photos of what the mansion used to look like and how they used to travel by horse and carriage. 

Year 1 loved taking part in the Science Fair today. A big thank you to Year 6 for running it. They were brilliant at getting the pupils to make predictions and perform the tests to see if they were right.
