Jake, in Year 6, approached the school and his crew with wanting raise awareness around MND.

Spectacular Spoons!

I can’t believe the amount of wonderful character spoons we had fetched into school as part of our World Book Day competition! The creativity and effort that has gone into each and every one is amazing!

The Learning Council judged the spoons this morning but it was such a hard choice that we have ended up with 8 winners instead of 4!

Watch this space to see the winning spoons tomorrow …

Here are just some of the fabulous characters!

Year 6 Learning Club

In Year 6 we don’t let a busy morning of 2 maths SATs papers and an afternoon of writing stop us – we power on and show exceptional HOWLs at learning club too. Mrs Rafferty and I were blown away with the hard work and dedication of the group of children that stayed after school yesterday to practice their maths reasoning skills ready for this morning’s final maths assessment. Well done guys – you are awesome!

Crew Jackson – fabulous artwork

This afternoon, we combined our learning on Quentin Blake’s style, watercolour techniques and one point perspective to create our artwork linked to Thorne North Train Station. I was very impressed with the children’s hard work, attention to detail and use of different media. I can’t wait until we apply these skills to our final product pieces.
