Save our Planet

18th March 2021Mrs Graves

Today in English we had a fantastic discussion about how the Covid-19 epidemic , and particularly the lockdown, has had a positive impact on the environment by lowering air pollution.

This led on to great collaborative work to produce a poster encouraging people to ā€˜Save our Planetā€™. We were so engrossed with our work, that we didnā€™t want to stop – James and Mathew even asked to carry on working through playtime – shout out to you boys!

We critiqued each otherā€™s worked to make improvements and then we presented our posters to the class. Well done Sumika for going out of your comfort zone by talking in front of everyone.

I felt very proud of the focus and dedication and the enthusiasm for the topic. Well done guys!

Fabulous Flames!

4th March 2021Karen Coward

In KS1 yesterday our Expedition lesson was about how to draw fire and flames, we wanted to create fabulous 2D artwork. I think you will agree, the children have done an amazing job.

Darcy worked really hard on keeping his colouring in the lines, he thought carefully about the shape and brightness of his colours.
Ellis experimented with watercolours.
Talliah looked carefully at the models – look at her work in progress – her eye for detail is super.
Vittoria’s looking proud… look how she has carefully drew and coloured her flame. I love the sparks coming off it.

Amazing artwork in Year 3 and 4

21st January 2021Mrs Graves

It has been a great week of learning for so many of our children in year 3 and 4. So many children have been logging on and completing their work, it is great to see.

I have been particularly impressed with the artwork that has been produced during the Thursday afternoon art sessions with Mrs Foster.

They have been learning about the Japanese artwork ā€˜the Great Waveā€™ by Hokusai, to link with our expedition theme of Natural Disasters and todayā€™s lesson moved on to using a tsunami as a subject to study using perspective in their drawings.

I am blown away by the quality of the drawing and the care and pride they have put into their work.

Have a flick through our gallery below (swipe left and Ā right) and who knows, one day, some these pupils might be displaying in real art galleries!

Enjoy our art!

What a start!

By Mr Pickering5th January 2021

Despite the sudden switch to online learning, there have already been some excellent, creative examples of home learning for our new expedition ‘Is London still burning?’. Thank you to everyone who managed to get online today and have a go at some of the tasks. The live check-in will be at 9am tomorrow morning and then the live lessons will follow throughout the day. Please try and join us if you can. If you are having technical problems, please get in touch and we will help where we can.

Well done to Laci-Maee, Shayen and Tim in particular for you hard work today.

I hope to see you all again tomorrow!

Perfect Poetry!

By Louise Chapman3rd December 2020

Our Year 6 Crew have been poets today! Ā After writing Ā all about the polish aircraft that crash landed over Hatfield Moors inĀ the style of a newspaper report, the children were challenged to describe the tradgey in a poem, using precise word choices to create impact.

Perfect Poetry

A shout out goes to Mia and also Shang for using alliteration and personification in their writing.

Luke also gets a shout out for writing his poem in first person, as if he is the ghost telling the story.

Keep up the good work, Crew Chapman.
