We couldn’t guess his name so look at the chaos he caused!

22nd December 2024Mrs Haycock

3H have been trying to guess the name of their class elf for the last few weeks. They were convinced it was Haycock Junior as he tormented them as much as I do but unfortunately they failed in their guess, so he caused pure destruction on the final day of term. He did find a moment of niceness though when he stuffed our fake grenades with yummy chocolate…thank you Icerink and well done to Sienna for working out where he had hidden the chocolate from the clues he left us!

We hope to see Icerink and his army of elves, who kept multiplying during the final day, next year. We wonder if he could go back to elf school though because his spelling is absolutely atrocious and we would love to know how one elf became two, then three and finally four…our minds were blown and the excitement kept building!

Have a wonderful break everyone, you deserve it! Keep safe, be happy and have fun! I look forward to seeing you all safe and sound in 2025!

We hope you all have a wonderful two weeks rest and for those who celebrate it, we wish you all a wonderful Christmas too!

Circuits in 6B

9th December 2024Lucy Wood

6B had a great time grappling with circuits this afternoon. Each group successfully created a working circuit, lighting their bulbs and even powered their propellors. They linked this learning to their current expedition by noticing how solar power is used in space exploration. Great work 6B!

Celebration of Learning

2nd December 2024Josie Farrow

Last week, Year 3 and 4 showcased their hard work over the last term at the Celebration of Learning. Well done for showing resilience, bravery and compassion. Thank you to everyone who came to visit and purchased art work.

We are amazing artists!

20th November 2024Mrs Haycock

We have been working really hard in Years 3 and 4 to produce portraits of our key artist: Henry Moore. Just look at this beautiful work to be proud of…

Every child needs to be proud of their achievements this week. I hope they take on their next artistic challenge of working with the media that Moore had available to him during World War Two with as much enthusiasm and support for each other as they have over the last few days…true crew!

We are artists!

19th November 2024Mrs Haycock

We have been using the skills that we have been building up recently to sketch a portrait of our key artist: Henry Moore. Our skills of observation and proportion have improved dramatically and I cannot wait to see the finished portraits later this week!

Keep looking carefully and working hard everyone. Your artwork is fabulous!

Dictionary use has been a challenge to say the least! However, with regular practise, and a little bit of healthy competition, we are now becoming so much quicker at finding our key Speedy Reading words!
