Year 6 were investigating the past this week as they sifted through evidence and artefacts whilst studying Ancient Egypt!

Year 3 have been working so hard to create their sculptures made from wire inspired by the artist Giacometti. We didn’t find it easy but we didn’t give up! 
 

Today, we started to make our buzz wire games. We used clay for the base then children enjoyed creating their buzz wire design to challenge their friends. Next lesson, we will add the electrical circuits. 

On Wednesday we led the whole school in our Celebration of the Word. We were reflecting on The Our Father and the seven petitions it contains. We enjoyed leading this time of prayer and reflection and we were very pleased that so many of our parents and carers came to join us.

During the afternoon, the weather was kind to us and we were able to see all of the animals outside. 

During our trip, Year 1 had the opportunity to hold a stick insect and a cockroach. 

We have had an amazing trip to wildlife oasis today. These photos show the first part of our day. Zack the animal keeper gave us a guided tour of the animals inside and we learnt some great facts. I wonder if anyone can tell their grown ups facts about any of the animals!

This afternoon, we carried on with our Haiku activities. Mrs Lowe put all of our haikus from this morning on the front of the lapsafe, then we had to choose somebody else’s haiku to illustrate. We tried to match our illustrations to the description in the haiku. We are going to turn them into a…

We have been learning all about road safety in reception. This week we practiced crossing the road safely. We learnt to stop, look both ways, listen and think. We even learnt a song tho help us remember these things.

Today, Year 4 learnt to do a country dance . This involved circling left and right, star turns, 'dosey doe' and a promenade walk around the room. It was great to see everyone having fun and working together to complete their sequence of moves in time with the music. Well done, Year 4!

Year 6 were really impressive this afternoon as the delivered their Celebration of the Word.  They wrote and based their liturgy on the Seven Sacraments - describing them for the rest of the school.

Thank you to the parents that attended for your support.
