As today is our “Friday” due to tomorrow’s training day, Class 10 have enjoyed a Terrific Thursday – complete with a treat for earning ALL of the ‘Stars in the Jar’! Class 10 have had a super week completing lots of assessments as well as science experiments for our Science Week. Great job guys, keep it up!
Today, for Science Week, we have been learning about reflection and exploring different reflective surfaces in the classroom in order to create posters with our friends about our learning.
On Tuesday, Day 2 of our Science Week, Class 10 enjoyed exploring shadows in the playground by drawing around them with chalk. Then back in the classroom, we investigated how the distance of the light source from the object effects the size of the shadow. We found that the further away the light source, the thinner the shadow!

Year 3 are learning all about tennis in their PE lessons this half term. Today, there were lots of concentrated faces as we practised balancing the ball on our rackets and keeping things under control with some keepy-uppies! Well done, everyone 🙂
To kick-start our science week, Class 10 have been busy investigating light! We started with researching light and shadow through photography on the playground and then we held an experiment in the classroom to see if light could bend through a series of holes. Why not ask us about our findings … did the light bend or did it travel in a straight line?
Keep a look out on the blog this week for what we will be getting up to in our science weeks. We are planning to inspire the children with scientific experiments and visitors with scientific professions! We are very excited to see what the children know already and what they learn!

Class 10 have blown me away with their fabulous costumes for World Book Day – well done to everybody involved. We celebrated this morning with a book-themed draw-along session as well as time spent just enjoying reading for pleasure. Today, was also Eli’s birthday so we were all serenaded with a top class performance by our own Taylor Swift (Ava D) using her very snazzy mic with a funny VoiceOver to ensure giggles all round to end the day 🙂
This week, Year 3 took on a new challenge in XP Outdoors learning how to use knives safely. With careful guidance, they practiced basic carving techniques while following important safety rules.
