Class 11 past two weeks! 📝🔢🌸🦴

13th January 2023Simon Gerrard

Here is a little update of Class 11s first two week backs after Christmas, now that photos are full working!

In our hook week, we looked into our first Case Study, which will look at electricity and other fuels. We thought it was a great idea to walk around school and search for different electrical appliances. We found so many!

As part of our Case Study 2 hook day, we were looking at biology and more specifically flowers. We labelled the different parts of our artistic flowers and created some beautiful designs!

Next, we looked at the other part of Case Study 2, which will be looking into humans. We created some really fantastic x-rays, so lets hope these are the only x-rays for Class 11 this year!

This week we have started our Case Study fully and have developed our knowledge further of electricity and more specifically circuits. We worked well collaboratively and persevered to make the different circuits light up. Not only can we make circuits, we can name the components of a circuit!

Other great learning has taken place and more beautiful work has been produced, which we can’t wait to continue sharing!

On a personal note, thank you Class 11 for making me feel very welcome and a part of the Crew. Let’s keep being amazing and producing more wonderful work. Happy weekend, guys! 😆

Class 9 doing great ball skills

12th January 2023Aime Shaw

We started a new unit of work in Pe today, where we are going to be practising batting a ball and catching it. We began by playing a warm up game and then explored our catching skills with a partner and then in a small group. I was really impressed…can’t wait to see what the batting skills are like next week.

please remember we do PE every Thursday so the children will need a suitable PE kit!

Thanks

Mrs Shaw

Dear Parents,

The drop-in session will take place from 3:00 PM to 5:00 PM, and you are welcome to drop in at any point during that time. Our Y6 crew will be available to answer any questions you may have and provide guidance on how to best support your child’s learning.

We highly encourage you to take advantage of this opportunity as it will provide valuable insights into your child’s progress and areas where they may need additional support.
