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.
This week, we had a fantastic visit from The Bank of Dreams and Nightmares for a poetry workshop. The children loved selecting their favourite parts of Weymouth and turning them into creative and imaginative poems.
With our pantomime just around the corner, we can all feel the nerves and the excitement! The children have been working hard in rehearsals, and we can’t wait to share the performance next week!
This week the children have completed a few activities to help us understand how we can improve our mental health, and recognise how we can overcome challenges.
We have certainly had a new challenge in English this week as we have become newspaper reporters. We have had to observe, take notes and then start writing about Flying Frogs Invading Weymouth! Read all about it next week!
In maths, we have been looking at division with flexible partitioning, and perimeter of shapes with unmarked sides - well done, everyone!
What an exciting day we have had today! Our class pets have been busy today. When the children arrived at school, they found the class pets eating breakfast in the Year Two area. The class pets then found their way to the nature reserve, where they were toasting marshmallows around a campfire. During assembly, the class pets were a little naughty and had got the paint out. They were having a great time painting pictures. During lunch, the class pets joined the children in the hall and finished most of their sandwiches. After lunch the class pets had found their way into one of the offices and made a bit of a mess. The children have really enjoyed following the events of the class pets and are getting ready to write a diary for them next week.
During our forest time, not only did all of the children enjoy toasting a marshmallow, they also went on a scavenger hunt related to their materials work in science. The children had to find objects that were rough, smooth, yellow...This helped the children to describe the properties of materials.
This half term, Year 6 has been fortunate enough to have a cricket coach teach them weekly. It has been a fabulous experience having a block of sessions with the coach, and the children have really enjoyed it too.
What a wonderful day Year 4 had on Friday!
It might have been January, but the sun shone down us all so that we could complete the local History Trail in relative warmth!
Whilst we are studying our local link to the Black Death, we were also in awe to discover how much other history Weymouth truly has.
How lucky are we to live here!
A huge thank you to all the parent helpers who made the trip possible, it is much appreciated.
