Year 6 Cooking!
Year 6 had lots of fun today cooking. We have previously learned about the Mayans so our D.T. cooking unit linked to this.

Year 3 have had an amazing day visiting Washington Wetlands Centre! We had the opportunity to see a huge variety of birds and other wildlife whilst also taking part in some fun and informative outdoor activities. Some of saw squirrels for the first time and absolutely loved watching the animals in their natural habitats.
As usual, the children were a credit to the school as their behaviour was fantastic and they had some great questions for the staff at the centre. The staff at Washington Wetlands Centre were really impressed!
Take a look at some of our photographs from the day.
Ashleigh came in today to teach us how to play tennis. We learned all about controlling the ball and holding the racket correctly. Then we rallied the ball to each other showing all of the skills we’d learned. 8 of us were then cosen to represent our school next week but we were all absolutely amazing!
Year 3 have been learning all about light in Science. Today, we learned about how an opaque object can block light and cause a shadow.
We had lots of fun designing and making our very own shadow puppets and creating different size shadows with them.
The KS1 yard has got a new role play area this week! The children have been playing ‘schools’ and have been practicing their reading, writing and maths. Bella said “I love this set up!”
Year 6 were very lucky to visit the extremely powerful and emotive piece of art that is the Knife Angel.
Year 3 have been so lucky this afternoon to receive a visit from Edzoocation. They have visited us with a variety of different animals as part of our science topic. During the visit, our children were able to demonstrate and recap their knowledge of animals groups and skeleton types. They were also able to hold and handle a variety of different animals, including a snake, a tortoise, a ferret, a sugar glider and a baby owl.
Year 1, 2 and 6 spent some time sharing their stories in their pyjamas to support Pyjamarama Day on Monday. We use lots of different areas to share stories and the reading was fantastic!
Laura Taylor came into school yesterday to help us practise the songs we will be singing at this year’s Big Sing. The focus is the Olympics and we are learning songs from around the world-we had great fun this afternoon and can’t wait for the Big Sing itself!
Today we joined the rest of the school, wore our PJ’s and brought in our favourite books-we had such a lovely day sharing them with everyone!
