• Kings and Queens Year 1 and 2 celebration day

  Thu 15 Dec 2016 Mr Phoenix
  The Year 1 and Year 2 children had a super celebration day to conclude the work they have been doing on monarchs. Dressing up as kings and queens, the children had a 'royal party' which concluded with a banquet in the classroom. The children have really enjoyed their topic, learning about castles, the lives of different monarchs, and even bringing their painted king and queen portraits to life with 'ChatterpixKids' on the iPads to create 'guess who' talking video clips!

  

• Team Titan VE Day Party

  Mon 12 Dec 2016 Mrs Tennant
  Team Titan have had a great ending to their World War II topic today with a VE Day Street Party. The classroom was set up with long tables and red, white and blue bunting. The children had busily been baking delicious rationing biscuits, carrot cookies and homemade digestives, which the parents then enjoyed with a cup of tea. During the party, parents were able to watch the children's short animations remembering our heroes from WWII and look through their child's topic books, which were full of fantastic work they had done and showed how much we had all enjoyed our learning about World War II. A great party, just a shame there were no biscuits left for Mrs Tennant!

  

• Night adventures for Team Dragon and Unicorn

  Tue 06 Dec 2016

  The 'light and dark' science curriculum really comes to life outside at night time! We started our evening back at school by making puppets which we used to cast shadows using the projector in the hall. We then got our coats on and enjoyed looking at the light cast by our torches outside. We played a game of hide and seek where some of us found a hiding place and then turned off our torches and then the seekers came to find us using their torches. This was great fun in the dark and we realised the importance of staying quiet! The weather was perfect, as the slight fog meant we could see the beams of light from our torches. We then finished the evening by listening to The Owl Who is Afraid of the Dark and having a snack while talking about light sources.

  Thank you to all those who were able to join us for our night-time adventure!
