National Poetry Day 2021

Years 3, 5 and 6 took part in a poetry workshop with the amazing Michael Rosen on National Poetry Day. We watched Michael perform some of his poetry and joined in along with him. I know that Year 6 particularly enjoyed 'No breathing in class'  Please look at Michael's website for many more poetry ideas and performances: Michael Rosen | Official Website He is certainly inspiring.

Special visitor

Today, we had a special visitor who came to talk to us and teach us all about the Muslim religion. We learnt that Muslims have 5 things they must do: 1. Believe in Allah (one God) and a special messenger Muhammed. 2. Pray 5 times a day. During prayer, you must take your shoes off, your clothes must be clean, you must wear a hat if you’re a boy and girls must wear a head scarf to cover their hair to be respectful to Allah and finally face Allah’s house. 3. Visit Allah’s house and wear two white sheets of cloth and walk around Allah’s house 7 times anti-clockwise. 4.


All about Poland Day

Today, we are celebrating 'All about Poland Day'. This morning in assembly, we sung Baby Shark in Polish and listened to Key Stage 2 sing the numbers to 10. We also got to try some polish food, it was yummy! We also created a traditional Polish pattern, folding paper to create symmetrical patterns and then layered the coloured paper up to create flowers. Stay tuned to see out final product.
