Class 15 were very sensible when learning about Buddhist beliefs and discussing the topic of suffering - children used their oracy skills to discuss times when suffering might have taken place.  

Well done Class 15.

This week we looked at how fossils are formed. We matched up pictures of dinosaurs and fossils that have been found.

We used our observation and oracy skills to give reasons why we thought the fossils matched the pictures. 

Class 12 have been studying friction with a variety of different carpets and toy cars. 

The class experimented by pushing toy cars with equal force on vinyl, ribbed carpet and underlay to determine which carpet has the least friction and therefore which one is the most suitable for a nursery…

This week, Class 16 were testing water resistance. In groups, the children made 2 different objects out of play dough - one which they thought would have more water resistance and one which they thought would have less water resistance against it. 

We used stop watches to time their results.…

This week, we discussed homelessness. 

We spoke about what is important to us, what is essential to living and what is not important. 

Children then gathered their ideas and we used a traverse to explain our ideas.

Class 3 are really enjoying mindfulness when they come in from dinner time. 

Here we are doing the body scanner to help us to calm down and notice how our body feels. 

Today in computing class 11 worked in pairs fixing multithread bugs on scratch.

The children loved their first trip to Clip n Climb. 

They grew in confidence throughout the session and some pupils manage to get to the top of the walls. Well done.

Well done to all the children who took part in the session.

All the children managed to go around the BMX track and challenge themselves on the bigger jumps.
