Pompeii and Pebbles

5th June 2025Mrs Graves

This week we have been learning about the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79AD that buried the city of Pompeii.

We read the book ‘Escape from Pompeii’ and acted out some role plays as the main characters.

We have also been learning about rocks and the rock cycle this week, which culminated in our very own ‘Rock Museum’. We made posters to describe the rocks on display and the toured round looking at the different types of rocks and their properties. Who would have thought the rubble under our feet could be so interesting!

LKS2 Young Readers – Books, Biscuits and Superheroes!

21st May 2025Mrs Graves

Today, we were so pleased to welcome volunteers from Amazon into our school for our first Young Readers event.

The volunteers shared a quiz and a story with the children and then challenged them the create their very own Superhero.

Everyone was so engaged in the task, as paper and tape were turned into capes and masks! It was great to hear how imaginative the children were , when coming up with their superhero names and super powers.

This was followed by a visit to our magical book room, where children were able to select a book of their choice to take home. Everyone was so excited and couldn’t wait to get started reading their book – so that’s just what we did – with a biscuit of course.

A huge ‘Thank You’ goes to all the Amazon volunteers, who delivered their workshops with real pizazz, and another ‘Thank you’ goes to the National Literacy Trust’s Young Readers Programme and Vicki, who made it all happen.

This is the first of three event that we are so lucky to be able to share with Year 3 and 4 this summer. We can’t wait for the next one in a few weeks.

VE Day Celebrations

8th May 2025Mrs Graves

What a lovely time we had singing WW2 songs and sharing a picnic soon the school field at lunchtime today, to commemorate 80 years since VE Day.

After posing for a whole school photo, it was time for a bit of fun, with some dancing and singing some more recent tunes!

We took a moment to thank those who gave their lives for us today.

Please encourage your child to complete home learning linked to their current expedition. We have attached a link for the booklet of ideas below; however your child could complete their own ideas as long as they link to current learning.
