What a peaceful and prayerful week back Year 6 have had.  First we celebrated the Mass of Epiphany in the Cathedral on Tuesday and on Wednesday, as part of pour class Celebration of the Word we explored how we could share the Light of the World - Jesus with others.

Today, Year 4 started their electricity topic by exploring how to use wires and batteries to make a bulb light up. They worked cooperatively to problem-solve and created simple circuits that made their lamps light up. Great work, Year 4!

This week, children in Year 4 showed amazing cooperation skills when they worked in groups of four to create sequences showing matched and mirrored balances, rolls and different ways of travelling. They listened well to each other's ideas and everyone joined in with their group to produce some…

Year 3 have been enjoying making 3D shapes out of the magnets! We looked at all the different 2D shapes we need to make them into 3D ones.

Counting is a great activity to support your child’s learning, this can be done in any location; sat in the car, at home or…

Year 2 have had a reflective morning. They have thought about the feast of the Epiphany and the journey the Three Wise Men went on, to worship the baby Jesus. The children then had the opportunity to write about the special feast day. 

What a busy week we have had getting ready for Christmas.  We've had a party, ate a delicious lunch and enjoyed the pantomime! Merry Christmas everyone!

Year 6 finished the year this week with a reading cafe and exhibition of their The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe creations.

What a way to end the year!  Merry Christmas to everybody!

We had so much fun at our Christmas Party. We enjoyed playing musical statues, pass the parcel and corners. We certainly danced our socks off!
 

We had a great Christmas party afternoon today, playing party games with Year 3 in the hall and then circle time games in our classroom. It was lovely to see the children helping and encouraging each other in the games. We wish all our families a very happy Christmas, from Year 4.

As we have been learning about light and shadows in our science, we had a go at retelling the nativity story using shadow puppets. We worked in groups to put together a performance and then we took it in turns to listen to each other. 
 

Year 2 have been inspired to use Van Gogh’s ‘Starry Sky’ to create their Christmas cards. The colour mixing and swirl creations are looking fabulous. We can’t wait to see the finished product!
