Happy, kind and brave.
Together we learn, together we grow, together we soar.
Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
Year 5 pupils have been getting creative in the kitchen, preparing and cooking some yummy-looking pizzas as part of this term’s DT topic.
Over the last few weeks, the children have been learning about what constitutes a healthy, balanced meal, using information from the NHS Eatwell Guide. They have learnt about the different food groups, the nutrients they provide and the proportions these groups should be eaten in.
The children designed their pizzas with all this information in mind, and they were able to bring their creations to life this week.
Thank you to all the parents and carers who sent in toppings this week – we really appreciate it.
We have really enjoyed having Carly, a dance teacher in for the last 3 weeks. The dance lessons have been linked to our History topic on Florence Nightingale. The children have been rowing boats through stormy seas, putting bandages on each other as well as scrubbing the hospital floors and windows all through the medium of dance!!!
The children have worked independently as well as with a partner using their imaginations. These sessions have been so much fun, thank you Carly!
This week the children have started to plan and write their own newspaper reports about an unexpected invasion of…frogs!
The children have already looked at all the evidence, and now are able to report their findings. Look out for their final pieces next week.
In indoor PE, the children worked superbly using all of the gym equipment. Some children also took the opportunity to demonstrate their unique talents.
The children have also finished their maths topic on length and perimeter this week. Why don’t you ask the children about perimeters, polygons and rectilinear shapes? They will certainly impress you with their mathematical knowledge.
We ended the week on a high, with our final tag rugby session. What fabulously determined, competitive and caring sportspeople we have!
In art this term, Year 6 have been exploring the work of Chuck Close and experimenting with collage techniques. To end the unit of learning, everyone created their own collaged face. Take a look at their wonderful creations...
