We are working as scientists

28th March 2025Mrs Haycock

There is a buzz of excitement in 3Hā€™s classroom today as the children are very busy working in their teams to prepare resources and presentations that they will perform to their parents this afternoon. Iā€™ve let the reins go a little and the children have decided what they want to prepare and how they want to present their learning to their parents. They are doing themselves proud. I hope they have plenty of parents to talk to later on.

Good luck this afternoon Years 3 and 4. Be confident. Be knowledgable. Be awesome. Be you!

Beautiful Butterflies

28th March 2025Amy Woods

For our Motherā€™s Day cards we drew butterflies, to link to our expedition. We worked hard to ensure our butterfly was symmetrical and learnt how to use shapes to build up our picture. Mrs Williams was so proud of how beautiful they turned out and how hard we all worked.
We hope all the special mother figures in our lives, have a lovely day celebrating on Sunday!

Science Fair Preparations

27th March 2025Mrs Graves

We really are getting excited for our Science Fair on Friday.

I have been so impressed with everyone has worked on their projects, working at home to prepare resources and collaborating so well in class, writing scripts and practising presentations.

I am really looking forward to tomorrow afternoon, to see how everyone brings their learning to life and hope our parents and carers will too.

We are enjoying a movie and snacks

27th March 2025Mrs Haycock

Years 3 and 4 are enjoying an extended stay at school this evening to watch a movie to enrich the learning they have been doing this term. Their expedition title has been ā€˜The power of life: What makes us human?ā€ I hope they enjoy the movie and are able to make links between the different case studies we have been learning about.
