This week we are geographers as we explore how the physical characteristics of a location impact the human activity that takes place there. We have compared Brazil and the UK, focusing on farming, transport and leisure activities. I am really impressed with the craftmanship and quality shown in the children’s work.
We are excited to announce that auditions for this year’s school production will be taking place via video submission.
Your child will be bringing home a script for the role or roles they wish to audition for. To take part, they should record a short video of themselves reading for that part (or parts). If they would also like to include singing the relevant song, this can be found on YouTube.
Once recorded, please email your child’s audition video(s) to [email protected] no later than 3rd October.
This approach allows every child the opportunity to audition in a relaxed environment and ensures we can give each submission the time and attention it deserves.
We look forward to seeing the children’s talents shine and are excited to begin casting our production. Thank you in advance for your support in helping your child prepare their audition.
Kind regards,
The Sherlock and Cinders Crew
Another week of gorgeous shout outs and celebrations for lots of children who have demonstrated our HOWLs and Character Traits over the last week. It was great to hear so many positive shoutouts from the children too!
This week we are focusing on words that end in the suffixes -able and -ible. Watch the video below to remind yourself the spelling pattern and rules.

Thank you to everyone who attended our Year 5/6 parent meeting last night. If you were unable to attend, please see the slides below as there is some important information regarding the residential, transition and applying for secondary school.
This morning in our reading lesson we explored the new vocabulary that was used in the story. We looked at the context the words were used in to make sensible attempts at the meaning and then use the dictionaries to locate the correct definitions. Finally we reflected on the best word choice, justifying our answers with detailed reasons. Well done everyone for working hard.
This morning we learnt about ‘rites of passage’ and how these link with making promises. The children went on to discuss both promises they have made and have received recently.
