This week the children have been reading the story of The Gingerbread Man in literacy and expedition learning. We enjoyed XP outdoors by reading the story whist some of our children were actors for the Gingerbread Man, the old man and woman, the cow, the horse and Mr Kershaw was the big bad fox! The other children enjoyed joining in with the repeated phrases throughout “run run as fast as you can, you can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread Man!”
Please ensure they are brought in for the rest of the week just in case of any sports day practice.
Class 7 started the first steps of making their final product!
This morning, our Year 5 crews took on a hands-on challenge that put their teamwork and problem-solving skills to the test. Tasked with rescuing an “injured” team member, each crew was given only one tool: rope.
With creativity and cooperation, the students worked together to design and build makeshift stretchers strong enough to carry their injured teammate to safety. It was fantastic to see the collaboration, communication, and critical thinking on display as they turned simple rope into a life-saving device.
Well done to all the Year 5 crews for showing such determination and teamwork!
A massive thank you to Andy who took the time to come in and speak to the class all about his job and his love for rocks! The children were so engaged with the session and loved getting to examine some of the different rocks that were brought in! What a fantastic way to introduce the children to our next case study!
Class 10 loved listening to and learning from our expert geology visitor today – one of our very own Year 3 parents, Mr Swinbourne! We learned about the rock cycle and were fascinated by the metamorphosis that rocks go through over millions and billions of years. We were also lucky enough to have an opportunity to get hands on with many of the rock types we discussed, as well as make links to the learning we experienced on our school trip to Magna last week.
Thank you for visiting us, Mr Swinbourne – Class 10 are very grateful! 🙂
