Year 5 have arrived at Harry Potter studios and are excited to start their workshop before heading into the tour. We will keep you updated on our blog when children are on their way home and we will create a video of their day this weekend to share with you all!

Year 5 had a great time looking at changes of state and evaporation.
Sorting words into specific groupings seemed simple enough at first…
I heard murmurings of, “Let’s make a table with columns ‘hard c and soft c’.”
Then the realisation struck: some words had more than one c sound within them! I wonder what 6H would do differently if they were given this task again…

Shout out to all of these superstars!
Noah and William were amazing (and then some) all day on Wednesday; Kiera and Syed have pushed themselves out of their comfort zones today and both children feel proud of their achievements; and Kyeran has persevered to be successful.
Well done Crew Haycock postcard winners!

Dear Parents,
We are so excited about our first Expedition trip as year 5 on Friday 24th September to HARRY POTTER STUDIO TOUR (LONDON)
We would just like to remind you of the following:
The coaches will leave school at 7.30am – please arrive at your classroom by 7am.
The coaches will return to school at approximately 7:30pm (we will keep you informed via text). Please consider there may be some delays due to Friday night traffic.
Please take into account the length of the day we will be out when packing lunches. Children will require extra food in their packed lunch – eg. Cereal bar in the morning, normal packed lunch and a snack/tea prior to leaving the studio plus at least 3 drinks. Pupils entitled to Free School Meals will be provided with a packed lunch from school but additional snacks will need to be provided from home.
Children need to wear their school jumper/cardigan and top, jogging bottoms / leggings and comfortable footwear.
Children MUST NOT bring a mobile phone on the visit but they are welcome to bring a camera (they will need to look after it themselves). They may also bring a book or something to do on the coach that isn’t electronic.
Finally, if your child suffers from travel sickness, please ensure that they take their tablet before arriving at school and then bring one in a named envelope for the return journey and givethis to their class teacher. Parents will also be required to sign for this at the office too.
Yours sincerely
Miss Blackham

🇺🇸 Thursday 7th October will be our American dinner day! We are asking children to come dressed in red, white and blue and join us on school dinners to try some yummy American style food🇺🇸
Every child who has a dinner on this day will be entered into a raffle to win either 2 tickets for the new Savoy theatre, a box of 12 Dunkin donuts or a sweet treat box including popcorn and chocolate! 🎟 🍩🍿
We can’t wait to try the pancakes and honey 😋
6H have been trying their best to be specific when critiquing their work. Praises make us feel good but critique makes us better! We are developing the understanding that, to make sure our critique is powerful, our comments must link back to our learning targets and that our wonders should help to prove our understanding or move our learning on.
Well done guys, we will all be experts soon!

Watching the collaboration between everyone today has been an eye opening experience. It really was wonderful to see so many children working in so many different ways. We may have hit a few barriers along the way but the advice given to each other when realisations had eventually been made was excellent and in the end all groups were successful.
Well done guys – keep working hard!

Well done to Corey and Mohamad. Today they have received a postcard for working hard and getting smart. Both boys have gone beyond their ME today, reaching Green Standard. Keep up the hard work boys.
