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.
The children have loved being back in school this week. We have seen lots of smiley faces and children excited to be reunited with their friends and into their new year 2 classrooms. As you can see art was a favourite this week.
We have had a busy time getting used to being back at school.
The children have enjoyed working outside and writing and talking about what they have done in the summer holidays.
They have heard a story about a pirate called Pete and made eye patches. We have been on a treasure hunt in the Nature Reserve and looked for things that Pete the Pirate has left behind.
Did you spot his parrot or his hat?
This week we had our English lesson in the Nature Reserve. We looked for -est words. The children had the task of finding the smallest, smoothest, spikiest, etc objects in the woods. They found a great variety of things and surprised us with even more -est words.
We had a lot of fun!
We would like the opportunity to thank all the parents for their support and help this year.
Kind regards
Year 1 Team.
On the Monday of the last week of term, Year 6 spent the day experiencing a range of secondary lessons: science (heart dissection), English (Emily Bronte poem) and PE (a choice of rounders or tennis). The school was welcoming, the children had an insight of secondary school life and the they had fun.
It seems that suddenly the year has come to an end and the children are thinking of moving on.
We are so proud of the progress that they have made this year. They are almost ready to have their summer break and make the transition to their new Year 3 classes.
This week the children have reflected on their Love Where We Live week and painted their clay Jubillee Clocks. We think these would look great on a Christmas tree or on a window.
In PSHE, they have been reflected on how they have changed and what they are looking forward to next year. In their final lesson of PE, the children took all of their skills and knowledge and created their own games to play.
Year 3 enjoyed a lovely swimming gala morning this week! There were races for all the strokes, underwater, best handstand, longest mushroom float, craziest dancer and lots more!
Well done to the children for their super efforts
Year 5 Geography Day was an enjoyable and knowledgeable experience. Students explored geographical features and engaged in interactive map activities. They learned about different cultures, climate patterns, and landforms, broadening their understanding of the world. It was a day of discovery, fun, and valuable geographical insights.
We loved we love where we live week. We made sandcastles, designed new theme parks and thought about what we love about Weymouth and what we would do to make it even better. We looked at photographs of Weymouth now and compared them to photographs of when our Great Grandparents were children in the past living in Weymouth.
We designed town bridges, harbours and experimented with floating and sinking. We made sea gulls and created lots of lovely art work all celebrating where we live.
In Maths this week we have been making different numbers using Base 10 equipment. We used towers of tens and individual ones to represent a number. After, we used the Base 10 equipment to show one less and one more than the number we had made. The children showed really good understanding and enjoyed using the equipment practically. We then worked in our White Rose booklets and finished with a game of bingo- one more and one less style! The children really enjoyed it. Perhaps have a go at Bingo at home yourself!
Today, Year 6 experienced their second day of Primary College. They certainly looked they enjoyed themselves!
