Year 1 went to the Centre for Life as part of our theme ‘Light Up The World’. We had a really great day exploring our universe. We completed some map work by looking at different continents and which animals came from which country. We then took part in a ‘Gross Bodies’ theatre show where we discovered what horrible things our bodies do to keep us healthy. We explored space, its planets, a space rocket and mission control; then took at tour through the stars in the planetarium. We explored different machines and how they worked and what a great brain we have. It was a brilliant day and we have learnt so much!
What an amazing week we have had celebrating the Coronation. We made ‘natural crowns’, decorated tiles, created loose part crowns, red white and blue patterns, built palaces and so much more! Today we had a party outside and it was sunny!
This week we have read the Easter story and then used story stones to sequence it. We have made transient art Easter bunnies and eggs, used eggs to create number bonds of 10, bunny baskets and Easter nests and cards. We also used paint outside to create Easter eggs and wrote some amazing Easter captions, what a busy week 🐇❤️🥚🐇❤️🥚
In Year 3, we have experienced life in Greece today by tasting lots of popular Greek foods. We tasted feta cheese, pitta bread, tzatziki, hummus and olives. We needed to be brave as some of us were nervous to try certain foods. However, we acted like true Adventurers and gave it a go! Some of us were surprised at how tasty lots of the items were!

Councillor David Francis joined us as a special guest in our assembly. He is a local councillor who is a member of the Green Party. He talked to us about what inspired him to want to make a difference in his local community and then presented the Eco Warriers with the Eco -Schools Award flag and certificate.
We look forward to welcoming him back to school so that he can find out more about our Conservation themes.

Unity In The Community is a lovely theme which teaches us all about our surrounding areas and to look at them in different ways. We have been looking at not taking our lovely area for granted and to think about it with positivity. We had a look at some very boring signs that we often see in the area around us and we decided to allocate each sign a sound. After a while we realised that we had become composers and had created a musical story. We then used 2Simple to generate our story and listened to our creations. Look out Top Of The Pops!
Last week the School Council and Eco Warriors worked together on a bird feeder project. We had a visit from Groundworks who talked to the children about visiting the tip, why you would go and what the children had dropped off. We then discussed how we deal with rubbish and recycling and the importance of 3 R’s – Reduce, Reuse, Recycle!
We learned the importance of keeping the earth happy and the damage of climate change. The teams made bird feeders from recyclable material and then we hung them around our gardens! The two groups worked so well together and were a credit to us all.
Year 6 were on litter patrol this week, showing pride in our school environment. We collected two bags of litter that the windy weather had blown into the playground and against the perimeter fence. We agreed as a class how important it is to recycle as much as we can and place our litter into a bin, taking it home with us where this isn’t possible.
Well done everyone!
This week in our theme of ‘Never Eat Shredded Wheat’ we have been looking at maps and how to read them. We have been giving each other directions to find places on a map and we know the difference between human and physical geographical features. We even created our own maps and matching key. We then thought about the sounds that each symbol on our key could make and we composed our own geographical music score!
