What a lovely day at Tropical World today. The children have learned lots about how we classify animals and how some species have adapted. The talk at Tropical World was fascinating and we all learned so much from the incredible knowledge shared by the staff. Then, after a lovely lunch, we looked around Tropical World. It was wonderful to see such a wide variety of animals and the biomes they are found in. I was really impressed with how the children read the information boards and really wanted to learn more about the species they were looking at. Their participation in the workshop was also superb and we had wonderful compliments from the staff. A special shout out has to go to Cole, who took his role as the meerkat very seriously! Here are the first batch of photos, Mrs Keir has some that I will add on tomorrow. #LovePlover

Safer Internet Day
On Tuesday, we raised awareness of Internet safety, especially whilst playing online games. The children spoke honestly and respectfully, and gave very grown up answers. What impressed me most was the way they resolved to make a change to the way they played games online. #LovePlover
We are exploring and learning!
Year 5 are visiting Tropical World today. We have looked at the different habitats and how animals are classified.
We can coach our classmates!
We have been recapping how to convert between mixed numbers and improper fractions today. How brave were these members of 6H when they offered to model how they came to their answers! Well done for conquering those fear demons too. Keep going, everyone in 6H…together: ‘We’ve got this!’
You ‘nailed it’ today, Ksawery! 😃 l
Tomorrow, be prepared for adding and subtracting fractions without common denominators. Let’s keep increasing those arithmetic scores people!

More grappling with grids in 5T!
This afternoon, we enjoyed grappling with a different type of grid. This time, we used sudoku grids! Lots of the children were really excited about these and definitely needed to grapple with them! #LovePlover

Years 5 and 6 enjoyed a challenging obstacle course where they had to trust their partners, use effective communication and show courage! Great to see Y5/6 still 5 more places available for this afterschool club with Mr Meade!

We are becoming scientists next!
5K completed their exit ticket today on case study 1 where they were geographers. It was brilliant to hear the children talking about biomes and using geographical language such as Southern Hemisphere so confidently and enthusiastically.
