This week, Year Five visited Peak Wildlife Park to supplement their learning within science. Whilst there, they learnt all about the different animals and how Peak Wildlife Park care for them. Most importantly, the children considered the different points of the lifecycles which the animals were in and how the lifecycles of the animals were […]

We made labyrinths, which some people use to help focus their thoughts, wooden crosses, stained glass windows and religious crosswords. The children had a lovely […]
In computing we’ve been using ‘paintz’ to create digital artwork! We drew ourselves and then worked together to create pieces in the style of Mondrian using the line, shape and fill tools! Well done everyone! 💛
This week we have read the story ‘Boris Goes Camping’ and taken our learning outside, pretending we are on a camping adventure too! We have been catching butterflies, painting with mud, using chalk, having pooh stick races, colouring paper ready to decorate our big teepee and reading stories in the little teepee. We have been […]

Last week in science we continued our learning about carnivores, herbivores and omnivores, considering what animals ate and why! 🐯 We’ve also been in to the woods to find signs of seasonal change now that summer has arrived! We used the camera to take photographs of things that we had found, using technology that not […]
Year One races their socks off at sports day! ⚽️ They tested their determination and PE skills and also showed super resilience when racing! ⭐️ They also showed compassion for each other, cheering and clapping everyone who took part showing super sportsmanship! Amazing! You are all champions! 🥇
Within our recent P.E. lessons, we’ve been looking at orienteering. The children have been strategically navigating themselves around school and answering topical retrieval questions when there. It has been lovely to see lots of effective communication and teamwork!
This week we held a whole school science day. Reception’s focus was forces. They were investigating magnets, floating and sinking, rolling, spinning and floating. It was a fabulous day and the children came away with lots of new learning.
Year Two have been learning to tell the time to the nearest 5 minutes. They have been brilliant!
