It’s all erupting in 5 Blue!

26th January 2026C Machin


What a week we’ve had in 5 Blue . As part of our Learning Means The World theme, ‘In your Element’  we have been learning all about tectonic plates, earthquakes and most excitingly volcanos. We have learnt how the earths surface is made up and how the movement of tectonic plates can cause the planet to react in different ways. 
we have created a our very own volcanos and with the help of vinegar and bicarbonate of soda created our own eruptions. As you can see from our pictures we have had a lot of fun. 

3D Shape!

16th January 2026N Sikka

This afternoon in 1 Red we revisited 3D shapes and talked about their properties and features.  We compared the shapes and looked at the similarities and differences.  The children were able to find many 3D shapes around the classroom environment and described what they noticed about them.

Snow Day!

8th January 2026swingrove

Although most of the snow has sadly disappeared, we had a fantastic hour playing in it on Monday! Seeing the children simply play and work together to either draw in the snow or build snowmen was wonderful – everyone enjoyed themselves. While it does seem to have disappeared for now, the cold remains so make sure you and your children are wrapped up for school!

Amazing Homework! 5 Red

18th December 2025R Cave

What an amazing effort from Macey in 5 Red for her homework this week and her wonderful woodwork skills.

Macey created a wooden enclosure at home for her knitted hognose snake, endemic to the desert lands in North America. Macey did this after a lesson on biomes in our Learning Means the World theme “Come Fly With Me America”.
What an exceptional talent, 10/10 for creativity!

School Council News:

On Tuesday, our KS2 School Council attended the Armistice Day service in Monkton Village. Although it was rainy and cold, the children stood with pride and showed respect throughout the entire service. They laid a wreath on the cenotaph and sung hymns beautifully. We even ended our trip with a well-deserved hot chocolate! Well done KS2 School Council.

Ha’way The Lasses!
