Class 5 POL

Don’t forget it is our Presentation of Learning tomorrow at 2pm. We are excited to see you all and show off our new skills whilst preparing a healthy meal!

Class 6 at the park

We had a fantastic morning at the new Thorne Memorial park on Friday. We were very proud to be the first school children to be invited to try out the fantastic new equipment and ride the train. If you visit be sure to look out for the friendship stones, fairy doors and bug hotels that we have left.

Class 6 Science week

We had so much fun last week investigating all sorts of forces. We participated in lots of different experiments including air resistance, floating and sinking and gravity. We made parachutes and air powered rockets and tested out how much cargo our tin foil boats would carry. The children asked lots of ‘what if’ questions and we had held very scientific evaluations of the products we made.

I am very proud of you all Class 6!

Reception Phonics

This week in Phonics we have been covering the following sound. The sounds will be sent out for the children to be practising to recognise the digraph, say the digraph and then write the grapheme.

The children are really starting to learn and retain those sounds but will need support to blend those sounds together. Have a go at the green words and the more they hear those sounds being blended the easier it will become. There is a sentence to read on the bottom of the sheet also. Reading this and also reading the reading books that the children now have will all help to increase and improve the children’s fluency in their reading.

Thanks

Mrs Wallace and Mrs Jones.

Class 5 Science Week

On Friday afternoon we did our final Science Week activity. We learned all about floating and sinking. Our task was to design a boat that could float and carry cargo. All of our boats were able to float but the winning boats were Luther’s and Isabella’s which managed to carry more than 20 pieces of cargo! We have thoroughly enjoyed engaging in our Science Week activities and getting hands-on opportunities to be Scientists!

Crew Schön 100% attendance!

On Monday Crew Schon found out that they were the only crew in school to achieve 100% attendance for the previous week. We were thrilled and received the full £10 to add to our Crew Kitty. We now have £20 to spend on Mrs Fitz’s trolley next week and Paddington is back in our classroom! Well done Crew Schon for doing so well with your attendance this term. We had one more chance to win some more crew kitty money – we can’t wait to find out on Monday if we will receive some more money in our crew kitty!

Miss Schön’s Phonics Group

After working super hard this term and accelerating our learning we managed to fit in a sneaky treat on Friday! We spotted Mr Pickles with the chicks from EYFS and managed to convince him to let us have a little peek! Well done my superstar phonics learners – I am so proud of how hard you have all been learning and we have seen some AMAZING progress! Keep up the hard work.

Class 5: Science Week

Class 5 learned all about the effects of gravity. We also loved finding out what happened to astronauts when there is no gravity. We watched a video all about how an astronaut washes her hair in space. It was so fun seeing all the water droplet floating away and the astronaut trying to catch them! We made straw rockets to test the effects of gravity. It was so much fun!

Class 5 visits the park!

We had such a lovely morning yesterday visiting Thorne Memorial Park and getting our first turn on the new playground! The children were so excited to explore all the new play equipment and have a ride on the train! What a great start to a really fun day!

Y3/4 Presentation of learning

We are delighted to invite parents and families to our Presentation of Learning for our expedition, The Power of Life: What Makes Us Human? This special event will take place in the school hall on Wednesday, 26th March at 2:00 PM.

Our pupils have been working incredibly hard, exploring the fascinating aspects of what makes us who we are. From the science of the human body to the emotions and connections that shape us, they are excited to showcase their learning with you.

Please fill out the form below to confirm your attendance at the event.

Sign up here!

See you on the 26th March at 2:00 PM!
