Author workshop

Today year 3 joined an online workshop with author Aoife Dooley who has written the graphic novels called 'Squid squad'. We joined in with a drawing lesson creating some of the sea creature characters from Aoife's book. We then listened to Aoife talk about what it is like to be an author and where her ideas come from.


Stars in year 3

Well done to our stars this week who won awards in assembly. Well done to the whole class who won an award for their enthusiasm during our workshop yesterday.


Year 2 Online Safety

Intranet legends were looked at in Year 2 and children discussed Online Safety- The importance of not clicking on things online unless we know it's safe was reinforced.

Children designed their own Intranet Legend and described their skills- eg. Knowing not to click until you are sure it is safe.

Try this at home, to improve knowledge of how to keep safe online:


Hunter gatherers

Check out our awesome hunting skills. We had to try and kill a cave bear, a woolly mammoth or a sabre tooth rider. Niki managed to kill all 3 with only three spears!


Stone Age Workshop

We have had so much during our workshop today. We have learned so many new facts about what life was like during the Stone Age. We had a close inspection of some real artefacts including a real woolly mammoth's tusk, hair and lots of real flint. We had a go at being hunter gatherers practising our hunting skills using spears. We then got to meet a wooly rhino in our classroom. Please ask the children what they enjoyed the most and I am sure that they will have lots to share.

Please look through our terrific photos.
