We are historians!

6B have been historians this afternoon. They have been researching why trains have adapted and changed over the years. They have realised that one of the main reasons is due to the purpose of trains and climate change. The children have written some gorgeous writing which I can’t wait to display on our Expedition display! Well done 6B!

Supporting our local mining memorial

Dennis, the lovely gentleman in charge of Markham main mining memorial, personally invited these three children back to the gardens along with numerous other schools in our area. He wanted to share our anthology of poems with them as he wanted to inspire other schools to write their own. We were so proud when Dennis read out our poem in front of the newspaper representative as well as numerous ex miners and other schools! The children also really enjoyed listening to the Markham main band!

Y6 Harry Potter studios consent form deadline-Friday 14th May!

Thank you so much to those who have signed and returned their consent form for the Harry Potter studios tour. As we need to act quickly to secure our tour, we are only able to book places for those children who have returned their slips by Friday.

We will be raising funds for the children’s tea at the service station on our trip by selling bacon/sausage sandwiches next Friday to 5/6 children. Please remember your £2 next Friday to secure your sandwich. We will also continue to fundraise this summer towards further leavers celebrations. Thank you so much for supporting these fantastic opportunities for your children.

Awesome maths this morning!

I need to give all of 6B a shout out for maths learning this morning! We used sweets to support us when finding percentages of amounts. The children were awesome and really grappled with their learning and they really challenged themselves to achieve their ME’s. It’s fantastic to see how their collaboration skills have developed this year and I am so proud! Keep it up superstars!
