On Friday, year 5 visited Tropical World in Leeds as part of our current expedition. The children enjoyed immersing themselves in the rainforest environment and linked this to their learning from school.During the workshop, the children demonstrated great recall by using our work in science to develop their understanding of animal classification. Great work year 5! Enjoy the pictures below:

Literacy Hook

2nd March 2022Carly Schon

For our Hansel and Gretel Literacy Hook we found a trail of stones leading outdoors. We followed the trail and found some clues along the way. The trail led us to a book and some sweets. We had lots of fun guessing what our new literacy text might be about.

We are storytellers

28th February 2022Jillian Jackson

This morning in English, the children worked collaboratively to tell a story just from the images. They had to listen carefully to each others ideas and explain their opinions to their group. We then went on to listen to the story and discuss whether our own ideas had been similar or different to the real plot.

I really enjoyed listening to your discussions and story telling.

F2’s Awesome trip to Austerfield

24th February 2022Lorna Vaughan

The children in F2 had an awesome trip to Austerfield today. Despite the wind, rain and even the little bit of snow we all had an amazing time. The children got the chance to do lots of team activities based around the stories of ‘The Three Little Pigs’ and ‘The Gingerbread Man’. They worked as teams to build the Three Pigs houses, used problem solving skills to get the Gingerbread Man down the river without getting him wet and even got the chance to decorate and eat their own Gingerbread Men. A big Thank you to the parents that offered their time to help us on our trip today, you make these lovely experiences possible.

Fun at family learning!

22nd February 2022Lorna Vaughan

A huge thank you to the parents that came to join us today for our family learning afternoon. We set a ‘scrapheap’ style challenge where we asked children and their adults to make buildings and features from our local area. The models produced were amazing and the children had so much fun making them with you. We had a lovely range of models from churches, supermarkets, homes, parks, Green top school and many more. Please see the gallery below of our lovely afternoon.
