Crew Jackson – Fabulous family learning

Thank you to everyone who attended our family learning session this afternoon; it was so lovely to have so many people join us for a creative activity. The children have done so much learning today about the layers of the rainforest and I can not wait to see the final pieces tomorrow.

Crew Jackson – layers of the rainforest

This morning we completely immersed ourselves in the rainforest by reading and listening to clues to find out about the different layers of the rainforest. We treasure hunted new vocabulary around the classroom, looked at an image, watched a video, read lots of facts and shared a poem; all of this helped us collaborate to create anchor charts. We went on to produce our own rainforest flap books and I was blown away by not only the recall of facts but by the time and care taken in ensuring their work was presented to a high standard. We just need to add the finishing touches tomorrow and I can’t wait to see the final version.

Keep up the great work everyone!

Year 6 Water Extravaganza

What a way to finish off an amazing start to Year 6! After a brilliant camp out last night where the children showed excellent behaviours, it was wonderful to see them still go home smiling (yet rather tired!) following fun with the water games. Have a relaxing weekend guys – you deserve it! This week you have proved that you are going to be a fabulous year 6 crew this year!

Y6 Orienteering

Yesterday, we took part in a whole KS2 orienteering competition where children had to use maps, teamwork and speed to get around the markers on the course in the quickest time! Shout out to all of Y6 for completing the course and working together as a Y6 crew. There was definitely some competition on show!

Year 6 chill time

After a fun night camping, bacon sandwiches for breakfast and camp stewardship tasks, we are now enjoying some chill time – watching a film, drawing and even a game of draughts is going on! Tired but happy year 6 children!
