This week we have been learning all about how to be safe when using technology. We have listened to stories about Mo and Jaz which taught us when we have a problem on our technology, we should always tell a trusted adult who will help us. We've also had a chance to practice what we have learnt by…

We have been learning about fantasy stories and many stories that we have listened to have been based in a castle. Our favourite story is George and the Dragon by Chris Wormell. In our English lessons we have written a diary entry by the princess and a letter of apology from the dragon. Today we…

For Safer Internet Day, Year 5 began by listing all the amazing things the internet can be used for – we all agreed it is a fantastic tool. We then listed the things that make it unsafe and were surprised by the size of the list. The children considered different scenarios and what to do when…

Year 6 said a heartfelt "Goodbye" to their guitars today, as they played a cracking concert with Mr Lupton for the last time. Their confidence and ability has really grown over the past several terms and they have all created memories to last a lifetime. 

Year 1 had lots of interesting discussions about Online Safety with Mrs Cook. The children have a better awareness and understanding now of how to stay safe on the internet.

We started the day by thinking about who are the people who we could go to if we are worried, upset or unsure about anything we see online. These are the 'trusted adults' and could be at home or at school or elsewhere. Everyone made a poster to explain this.

In the afternoon, we looked at how…

Today we had a maths carousel morning where we all swapped classes and did maths activities in Rec, Y1 and Y2. In Year 2 we made a pictogram. Mrs Grierson bought in a party size bag of Cadbury chocolates and we unpacked the bag and made a pictogram with it's contents. We found out that you get…

We had a lovely day at the butterfly house and mini zoo. We learnt all about the butterflies and their life cycle and also met Raymond the tortoise! We was very friendly. We also enjoyed looking around the other animals such as the meerkats and snakes!

Year 5 enjoyed learning and rehearsing 'The Highwayman' by Alfred Noyes for our school poetry performance. It was wonderful to have a good audience of parents and carers to perform to. There are many budding actors and actresses in Year 5 - I look forward to seeing this grow. Well done, Year…

Year 6 had a great time performing their Mummy Ancient Egyptian poem.

Gory, funny and educational - the poem wrapped up part of our Ancient Egyptian topic!
