• Year One - Science

  Fri 21 Nov 2025 Mrs I

  This week in science, we explored objects made from different materials. The children discovered that many items are made of plastic, some are made of metal, and others use a mix of materials. They really enjoyed discussing everyday objects and labeling the materials they are made from.

  

• Year 3 - Science Experiment and Story Writing

  Thu 20 Nov 2025

  This week, year 3 did a science experiment to see which surfaces created the most friction. We rolled a marble down a ramp and measured how far it travelled on carpet, concrete, grass and paper, recording our results in a table. In our English sessions, we also planned and wrote our own story based on the picture book ‘Animal Magic’. We tried to include expanded noun phrases, coordinating conjunctions, subordinating conjunctions and direct speech.

  

• Year 4 - Mountains and Marking

  Thu 20 Nov 2025

  This week, we have been looking at Mountains in our Geography lessons. We had a go at drawing a mountain and they all looked different! This showed us how, although they're all mountains, they can vary a lot. We looked at the different features of a mountain range too. In PE this week, we practised our marking in football. We played different games and did different drills to improve our marking skills for defense. Furthermore, we went to the nature reserve and identified lots of different types of leaves. It was freezing! 

  

• Year 5/6 football friendly

  Wed 19 Nov 2025

  Yesterday, a group of Year 5 and 6 boys took part in a football friendly against Wyke Regis. The whole team gave it their all and worked together with great team spirit. A special thank you to Bodie's dad, who stepped up as referee with very little notice. 

  

• Year 6 - Table Tennis All Saints

  Tue 18 Nov 2025

  On Monday, some children from Year 6 were invited to go and try out some Table Tennis activities and a tournament at All Saints School. All children did their absolute best and had a great time! 

  

• Year One- Odd Socks

  Fri 14 Nov 2025 Mrs ireland

  Odd Sock Day.

  Today, everyone wore odd socks as a fun and visible way to celebrate individuality and raise awareness that we can all make a difference by speaking up when we hear unkind words or see hurtful actions.

  We had fun designing our own socks and talking about how we are all different and that's ok.

  

• Year 4 - Times Tables and Anti-bullying Week

  Fri 14 Nov 2025

  This week, we have been super busy learning and practising our times tables. We have been playing lots of different games and taking part in challenges to help us with our fluency. Why not ask them to show you and play with them? In addition, we have been using Scratch for our coding skills and learnt a new dance routine for our Secret Agent dances. Finally, in recognition of Anti-bullying week, we have worn our odd socks. 

   

  

• Year 2 Finger puppets

  Thu 13 Nov 2025 Mrs Ayles

  This week in Year 2, we continued looking at puppets. The children learned how to use a template to create their very own finger puppets. It was wonderful to see their creativity as they designed and decorated their puppets. During our sewing, we discovered an important lesson: glue isn’t always the best way to fix material together. This gave us the chance to talk about different joining techniques and why some work better than others.

  Alongside our puppet-making fun, we have also started preparing for Christmas! The children have been learning their words and songs for our festive performance. There’s a real buzz of excitement in the classroom as we get ready to celebrate this special time of year. We can't wait to perform later in the term.

   

  

• Year 6 - coding

  Thu 13 Nov 2025

  This week, Year 6 started their unit on coding. We explored what happens to the hands on a clock then worked with out talk partners to sequence the commands. 

• Year 5 - nature reserve

  Thu 13 Nov 2025

  Year 5 pupils had a terrific time in the nature reserve and thoroughly enjoyed the fresh air and crisp autumn weather - especially after so much wind and rain recently!

  After a busy start to the term, the children were ready to spend some well-earned time outside, playing imaginative games, building dens and exploring the woods.

  Congratulations to all the children who won the den-building competition!
