We are nearing the end of this term’s fantastic expedition, ‘How have the changes in transport made our journeys safer?’. As part of our 3rd case study – design and technology – the children have designed vehicles and today have begun to follow their designs to make box models of them. We had a fantastic afternoon using d and t skills such as using tools to cut and sticking objects together to create our models and paint them. Next week we will add the finishing touches.

A huge congratulations to Elise for winning our Out of this World certificate this week.

Awesome job guys. I can’t wait to see the finished vehicles.

I wonder…..can you think of any modifications to your vehicle that would make it safer?

Look at our awesome winners from this week in Crew Rodgers.

Our winners row includes Scarlett, Marcus, Elliott and Cohen for most HoWL points, Get Smart, Work Hard and Be Kind respectively, and Cohen, Elliott, Scarlett, Jersey, Cody, Charlie and Luna for achieving with silver or bronze in our Reading challenge.

Congratulations to Lilly, Aoife and Luna for winning Learning Legend postcards.

Amazing work guys!

Crew Rodgers managed to fit in some last minute reading practise this afternoon during Reading Crew before beginning their Phonics check tests tomorrow. All of the children in year 2 have worked so hard to learn their sounds and we wish them the very best of luck.

Big congratulations go to Lilly as today’s learning legend for her magnificent design plan for her box model vehicle. Well done Lilly.

Congratulations to our certificate winners this week.

Jersey, Aoife, and Victoria celebrated being the first recipients of our Be Kind, Work Hard and Get Smart awards, which we will be presenting each week to children who have shown that they can consistently follow our HoWLs in these areas.

Scarlett’s award was for collecting the most HoWL points this week with a massive score of 87!

Toby, Sofia, Andra, Macey and Frankie joined our ‘Winners Row’ by passing the 30 books mark and gaining their bronze reading challenge certificates.

Last but not least Macey was the winner of today’s Learning Legend postcard by being a Can do Colin – using beautiful manners all day long and producing some very good independent writing.

Awesome job guys. I am SO proud of you all!

These 3 Superstars really impressed me today with their learning in PE.

They followed my instructions perfectly and acquired lots of new skills in attack and defence in our PE session. Great job Elliott, Lilly and Macey.

Well done Josephine on winning this medal in our Green Top’s Got Talent competition.

You will still talk to us when you’re famous won’t you?

A massive well done to this weekend star readers.

All of them are flying up our Reading Challenge board.

Well done.
