Gorse Hall walk

As part of our local history, Year 1 visited Gorse Hall to see if they could spot any of the statues from Beatrix Potter's 'Peter Rabbit tales'. We also visit The Stables, The Bowling Green and House ruins where Beatrix spent some of her early life. Thank you to our parent volunteers who supported us on our lovely nature walk. 


Egg-ceptional eggs in Year 5!

Wow!  Year 5  made an egg-cellent effort with their egg creations to enter the school competition!  They were just amazing!  Some entries were linked to our topics, such as the Solar System , Climate Change and 'The Explorer', with others ranging from Netflix, Britain's Got Talent! and a football match,  to a scene from our classroom and a beautiful garden!  It was so difficult to choose a winner from their designs; they all deserved a prize!  Well done to everyone!  Mrs Blomeley


Easter competition entries!

The entries were amazing and super creative. Choosing our winner and runner up wasn't easy but a huge well done to the winner who created an Indiana Jones entry! Our runner up was the Castleton entry which brought back good memories of our residential trip. We also had 2 lucky raffle winners from our class! 


Year 2 Summer 1

 

My what an exciting theme Year 2 have!

Who's afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?  

Traditional tales with a twist are the focus of learning. Children are developing their writing skills this half term.

My what great art skills Year 2 have! (Art is going to have an outdoor theme this term).

We are sure lots of Star Points are going to be awarded this half term!


Egg-cellent Easter creations

I am blown away with the egg entries in year 3 this year. Every single one was eggstremely good and it was so difficult to judge the winners. Our winner was Aliza and runner-up was Mason.

Well done to everyone who entered!


3D Investigation

Year 6 thoroughly enjoyed their maths revision today. They were investigating nets and creating 3D shapes. Their mathematical language really improved and I was impressed by their tenacity in creating different 3D shapes. 


Brunch with Mrs Parker

One child from each class was chosen to have brunch with myself this morning for being green on our behaviour chart all term. They are wonderful role models and I am very proud of them everyday! Well done - the chocolate brownies were my favourite. 


Tag rugby

Year 3 have really enjoyed their tag rugby lessons with Mr Williams. In our matches today we focused on understanding the offside rule.

Well done Year 3!
