We started our Wellbeing Wednesday with a Daily Mile today. The fresh air certainly woke us up.

Year 4 had lots of fun playing board games and card games in well-being time this morning. 

It was so lovely to see Year 4 sharing their learning from this year so far with their parents and grandparents. 

Year 5 finished writing their persuasive letters to adopt an animal on the WWF website. It was an extremely hard decision as everyone's letters were super persuasive! However, we chose one winner and we have adopted a Jaguar! Well done to everyone for their hard work in writing. 

It was lovely to see our parents looking at all of our work in the book look today. 

We have loved using our engineering skills to make our playground structures thinking about our design specification in our plans. We have cut, stuck, measured, scored, joined and collaborated. We will add our finishing touches later this week. 

We are ambassadors for the National Careers Week 2026. This is a fantastic opportunity to raise our profile, expand our network, and make a meaningful impact on careers education both nationally and globally.

Holocaust Memorial Day - the international day on 27 January - which marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi camp. Today we remember. 

Today we explored how to make freestanding structures using construction kits before making our protypes this week. The children worked in team to create their masterpieces. We also looked at how to strengthen and reinforce our structures using tabs, slots and triangles.

We are looking forward to engineering our structures in our next lesson.
