Today, Class 7, we have been learning about religion. We have learnt what religion is, as well as the 6 main religions. We then wanted to celebrate faith day by creating posters around religion!
Class 7 – Faith Day!

Year 2 – Martin Lamb Castle Talk!
Today, Year 2 had a special expert visitor Martin Lamb. Martin spoke to Year 2 about castles and how they were made. He even brought in bricks to let us ‘destroy’ William the Conqueror’s castle. Amongst the ‘destruction’, we learnt many new facts. These included the fact that round castles were harder to siege. We even learned about new weapons such as catapults. All in all, it is fair to say Year 2 loved their expert visitor.
Class 7 – eBook day!
Today was eBook day, so Class 7 chose two books to read online. We loved hearing about Harold the Cat and Muffin the Kittens adventures!
Class 7 – Bayeux Tapestry!
Today, Class 7 have been learning about William the Conqueror. He invaded Britain in 1066 and fought in the Battle of Hastings. We learned about the battle through the Bayeux Tapestry. So, what better way to understand it more than to create our own version?
Class 7 – Castle research!
Class 7 have been learning about the different types of castles and worked hard researching facts about them. We learned about Motte & Bailey castles, stone keep castles and, finally, concentric castles! Well done on such super knowledge, Class 7!
Have a great weekend, Class 7! 🙂
Class 7 Castle Work!
Wow! What can I say Class 7? You blew me away with your beautiful work on castles and your focus was tremendous. EVERYONE worked so hard and did a great job. Keep up the great work, guys!
Class 7 Medieval day!
What a great day Class 7 had designing their own crowns, making shields and having a banquet!
We even had chance to have our photos taken in front of our own castle!
Have a great weekend Class 7! 🙂
Class 7 Hook Week so far…
This week we have immersed ourselves in all things dragons. First we started with our dragon sketches.
Then we completed our dragon eye drawings and painted them with watercolours!
Today, we designed our clay dragon eyes!
Dress up day and Family learning – KS1!
This Friday (6.9.24), it is our dress up day to hook the children into their Expedition. They are welcome to come as anything medieval! They could be kings, queens, dragons or jesters – whatever links to castles, but please don’t worry about buying a costume!
On Tuesday 15th October it is the Family learning for Year 1. This will begin at 1.30 in the afternoon.
For Year 2, your family learning is on Thursday 17th October. This will again be at 1.30 in the afternoon.
We look forward to seeing you all and the amazing costumes!
Class 10 Diversity!
Class 10 have been looking into religious diversity and understanding how religions can be different. We then created posters to show off the diversity of food, religious buildings and symbols, plus more!
