Year 4 had a great day in the sunshine whilst visiting Leighton Hall. We spent the whole day outside in the gardens where we explored pollination and minibeasts. We made seed bombs for school, our own 'bees' and bug houses.

In the afternoon it was all about apples! We were in the orchard…

Year 6 took a closer look at the Bible this week, as we tried to find all the scripture that showed us we should look after the planet.

We searched bothe the New and Old Testaments to discover the best scripture to guide us in caring for our planet.

Year 6 were hard at work this week exploring the colourful world of camouflage!

As part of our Survival term, we looked at hiding animals in plain sight within their own unique camouflage.

The effect, as you can see, was quite stunning!

Year 1 had a great morning at Judges Lodgings. We experienced a strict Victorian class, and then played with lots of old toys. It was lots of fun!

This morning, Year 4 made the pasta dishes that had been planned in DT lessons. The morning was spent in preparation, cooking and then eating the food. We had great fun and enjoyed the end results.

As part of our study on teeth, we looked at the different types of animal teeth. We then tried to match them with the different animals and how omnivores, carnivores and herbivores have different features. Good teamwork and problem solving"

How much is a kilogram? Well in Year 2 this morning we found out. We filled our weighing scales until the dial touched the 1kg marker. Then we had to go and find just one object that would fit on the scale that also had a mass of 1kg. Can you guess what that might have been?

Year 6 had an amazing time today, exploring the fast and furious sport of wheelchairbasket ball!  As you can see from the pictures, the games were really fast but totally physical and full of strategy too!

Year 5 had a wonderful time playing wheelchair basketball this afternoon. Some of the children showed huge determination to score a goal and succeeded. Everyone agreed it was great fun!

The school once again had an opportunity to try a wheelchair sport and this year it was basketball. Year 4 had great fun competing in 5-a-side games, and showed some great teamwork and skill. Well done!
