Today, Year 4 led the school and some of their parents and carers in a time of prayer, reflecting on the life of St Bernadette and how she leads us to Mary.  It was wonderful to be able to welcome parents and carers to our Wednesday afternoon prayer time again.

Year 6 really enjoyed their Super-science workshops from Physics students from University of Lancaster.  We had great fun exploring the properties of how light travels through different fluids and how refraction occurs.

We can't wait until next week!!

This week we have been learning about the Queen and celebrating her life! We have looked carefully at her photographs and painted her portrait. We have been using playdough to mould her silhouette and found it on coins and stamps. In the outdoor area we made her car and practiced our own royal…

In Year 1, we have been learning about parts of the body. Next week we will be finding out about our senses!

All of our new friends are now in school! It is so exciting to have everyone in and to be meeting new people. We have been busy building houses with the big bricks outside and the using the little bricks inside. We also had lots of fun squashing and squeezing playdough and making cakes with it. We…

We have made a really good start to Year 3. This week in Maths he have been working hard on place value of numbers up to 1000. 

Another group of friends have joined us in school today and it was a lovely day. We have enjoyed playing in the mud kitchen making mud pies and soup for our teachers, making obstacle courses with the bricks and playing with our playdough. Our favourite time of the day so far is playdough disco…

Year 6 started their science work with a flash this week as we explored the super science of light!

As you can see, they had a lot of fun trying to find out what they already knew about light!

We had a really fun morning making it snow inside of the classroom! Doing this, we were able to practice our fine motor skills by cutting the polystyrene using scissors. We were also practice our rote counting when counting to throw the snow up in the air. Some of us were also very helpful and…

Year 4 have shown lots of energy and enthusiasm in PE during our first PE lessons. They showed great skill at using different types of throws during games and in gymnastics, they created super short sequences using different types of travel and balances. Well done, Year 4!

We have had a great first day at school. Our favourite things have been playing in the home corner and building things in the workshop. We have also been building inside and outside.  It has been lovely to meet so many new friends and explore our new classroom!

In science, we explored the process of digestion. This included filling a 'stomach' with bread and cola then pushing it through 'intestines' to see what could be absorbed by the body and what would be waste product. A bit messy, but great fun!
