In art, Year 5 have been doing some perspective drawings linked to their topic of railways. We think that they are absolutely AMAZING!! 👋
Year 3 were really excited to receive a wonderful letter and postcards from the author Andy Shepherd. We have loved reading her dragon books and are currently on the third book of the series! She gave us some fantastic ideas for story writing too 🐉📖✏️@andyjshepherd
In Year 1, the children have been discussing Mental Health Awareness Week. They discussed how to keep their brains healthy and went outside to cloud watch, go on a senses walk, create water paintings and observe the birds and listen to their birdsong. What a great week😊
Year 5 were lucky enough to have a workshop with Network Rail today! The children tested their secret formula to try and solve their 'Leaves on the Line' problem. They even got to create their own recipes to see if they could beat their winning formula!
Year 2 have written some incredible Calligram Poems themed around Shackleton's Journey. They look so effective!
One of our Year 5 children has made a model of The Rocket with their dad as part of their Railways topic. Wow! The chimney and piston are made of plastic pipe, the main body and platform are made from wooden planking, the wheels are from an old bike and a wheelbarrow. WOW! 👏👏👏
We are taking part in a community based project with the Royal Horticulture Society, but we would like your help. Do you have any old wellies that are no longer used in your house? Any size, any colour (even odd ones are fine!) Wellies can be left at the office. Thank you! 🌻
Our Early Years children have had a fabulous week watching the chicks hatch. They have now have 8 chicks! 🐣🐤🐣
