In maths, the class practised using the multiplication grid. They generated their own numbers using dice and checked their answers in the end with the calculator.

Viking Boy is getting really exciting. The class have loved chapter 4 with the arrival of the Valkyeries. They especially enjoyed finding out about these creatures as they came to take the fallen hero, Bjorn,  to Valhalla. 

Year 3 worked in small groups to research and present information on different natural disasters that occur. They produced some outstanding posters and used their oracy skills confidently to share their presentations with the class. 

We have used rulers, metre sticks and tape measures to measure objects in mm, cm and m in maths this week.

Today, Year 4 did an experiment to show what happens in the digestive system. Can you spot what is happening at each stage?

In Science, we learnt about the prenatal development and growth of a foetus. We compared the different stages of development with different fruits and even held a watermelon to see how heavy a pregnancy could have felt at 40 weeks! 

We played Danish Longball and demonstrated good team work! They loved this game.

Today our year 6 presented to Mrs Parker their reasons for being chosen to take part in a mock-trial at Tameside Magistrates in March. All the pupils have been outstanding and all of them could represent our school in the competition - it is a very tricky decision. Well done, I am so proud of you all. 

Some of our Year 3 and 4 girls took part in a futsal competition on Friday! It was great to see some of them representing school for the first time. They showed great team work and some fantastic football skills. A big thank you to our Game Changers who came along to help coach the teams. Fantastic work girls, well done! 

Year 4 had a fantastic time visiting Rayner Stephens High School for a DT lesson. They got to use a vice and a saw to cut their own design and then stuck everything together to create their own desk stand. They all look amazing! Well done everyone!
