We had a great first week back!

25th April 2024Mrs Haycock

4H had a fabulous first week back after the Easter break and it is fair to say that we are incredibly excited about our new expedition: From Bean to Bar: What’s the cost of a bar of chocolate?

We immersed ourselves in the world of chocolate by watching Gene Wilder as Mr Willy Wonka; tasting a range of different chocolate types; looking at the artwork of Andy Warhol and designing our own packaging for a delicious treat that we will be making as our final product!

Keep working hard guys; let’s smash this final term as a team and get you year five ready! How exciting!

Coding abstract art in 5L

23rd April 2024Lucy Wood

5L had so much fun this morning learning how to create art through coding in their computing lesson. I was so impressed with how they created some complex algorithms to create a repeating colourful pattern. The children were really engaged and seemed to enjoy how they could be creative in different ways. I’m so looking forward to seeing what they can do next week!

Computing in Y6

19th April 2024Lucy Wood

6B had a really productive morning learning how to code in computing. The children really enjoyed experimenting to see what they could make their characters do. They also learnt how to create different backdrops and make their characters move across the screen. Well done 6B!

Striking and fielding in Y3

Year 3 had a great morning learning how to accurately throw and catch a ball in their new PE unit- striking and fielding. They practiced underarm throwing and then learnt how to throw the ball at a chosen target. Great work Year 3!

Computing in Year 1

16th April 2024Lucy Wood

1C had a great time this afternoon learning how to code in computing. All children were able to create different algorithms to move their characters across a screen. They also learnt how to create different backdrops and had an amazing time experimenting to see what else they could make their characters do.

Year 5 are focusing on striking and fielding in PE this half term. The children focused on throwing and catching to start and then moved on to having a beginners game of cricket. Keep up the great work Year 5!

A reminder of Year 5’s dress up day- tomorrow!

14th April 2024Miss Blackham

On Monday 15th April Year 5 will kick start their summer expedition ‘how does a healthy lifestyle impact your body and mind?’ by immersing into their history case studies and becoming Egyptians for the day. We would love children to come dressed as Egyptians. We are encouraging parents to make use of any items they already have to avoid purchasing anything new. We hope the ideas above will help. If you are struggling for ideas, please see your child’s class teacher.
