Year 6 have enjoyed our Coronation Celebrations today. We took part in a 'Draw with Rob' to draw an illustration of the royal crown. We have watched clips about Queen Elizabeth II's coronation and discussed what to expect tomorrow when King Charles III is coronated. We have also enjoyed the chance to sit and talk with our friends and watch some of a movie!
A well earned day of rest!

Congratulations to our stars this week Xander and Aaron.
Xander has such a positive attitude all of the time and he is keen to make improvements and complete his work to the highest possible standard. He is an outstanding role model in the class.
Aaron has worked so hard this year and I am impressed with how much he seeks out advice to make improvements to his work. He is definitely high school ready.

In our science topic this half term, year 6 have been creating their own classification keys to sort different animals. On Tuesday, we had the opportunity to use a classification key to identify different invertebrates on our school the grounds.
We had a lot of fun!

This morning the second half of Y6 visited Rayner High to make their 3D car and code it using the Crumble Coding Set. I am so impressed with the computing skills of all of the pupils who managed to make their police sirens flash in different colours.
Thank you to the staff at Rayner High for letting us use their facilities too!

The Eco Leaders did a fantastic job when they went litter picking at Gorse Hall. With the help of Mr Pickles from the Friends of Gorse Hall and Mr Moon from Tameside Rotary and we collected 4 big bags full of litter. All of the children worked really hard even in the pouring rain. Well done everyone for helping to improve our local environment which will help our wildlife to grow and thrive.
Hedgehog Awareness Week runs from 30th April to 6th May 2023 is organised by the British Hedgehog Preservation Society and takes place every year. It aims to highlight the problems hedgehogs face and how you can help them. Please see the link below.
On Thursday 27th April we will be joined by Manchester based poet Matt Goodfellow. He will perform some of his poems in assembly and during poetry workshops throughout the day. The children thoroughly enjoyed working with him last year and I am sure they will create some amazing poetry with him again next week.
Please ask your child to share their poetry with you on Thursday.
