In our science week we have been learning about light. We have carried out some experiments that showed us that light can only travel in straight lines, it cannot bend around objects. Here they are in action testing out their theories.
Hunter has blown me away with his fantastic home learning. Taking inspiration from our two page spread he spent the weekend doing his own and teaching himself about other organs in the body too! Great work and effort all round.
Kalab wanted to share his achievements in his marshal arts today, he has earned himself a certificate and his yellow belt! He was so confident talking to the children about his achievements, you can tell he’s proud of himself! Well done.
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.
See you on the 26th March at 2:00 PM!
It is fair to say that the new park is a hit with Year 2! Thank you for a lovely day!
The children have worked so hard this term on their expedition with the title and guiding question, ‘Fight for your rights: How can one moment influence our future?’ We are so proud of their amazing artwork and the way it has come together to be made into a ring bound notebook linked to the inspirational figures we have studied in history. The notebook can be purchased from Monday and will first be on sale at the Year 5 and 6 presentation of learning during the afternoon using cash. The notebook will also be added to parentpay next week where you can purchase using bank card. The cost of the notebook will be £3:50.
We look forward to seeing you at our Presentation of Learning coffee afternoon on Monday at 2pm. If you haven’t yet completed the google form please click here to share whether you will be attending.
We have had the best morning at Thorne park! We were the first ever children to play on Thorne Park and it really was a special moment when they opened the gates for the first time. We have hidden kindness stones for people to find and we even had a go on the train! What a wonderful morning we have had x

The children had fun with magnets today! They had a look to see how they attracted and repelled each other. They then found different objects around the classroom to see what was attracted to the magnets. The children then tested metal stationary to see how many they could attach to their magnet…it was lots of fun!
This morning we have enjoyed the opportunity to get out in the sunshine and explore the new play equipment at the park. It was very exciting to get the chance to go on the amazing new play area before it is officially opened to the public tomorrow. We also loved searching for the rocks that the year 2 children decorated and hide in the park for us to find. It is definitely worth a visit this weekend!
