    3T have settled straight back into school and have learnt about lots of exciting things.

    It is lovely to see everyone after our half-term break. This week, we have finished our unit on gymnastics in P.E. and have pushed ourselves on the climbing equipment. We have also started new topic for geography looking at Tropical Rainforests and have started writing an information text around this. Next week, we start a new maths topic on perimeter and area and we are also looking forward to the sleepover next Friday.

  • Year 6 News

    Fri 24 Feb 2023

    It has been lovely to see all of the children back in school this week. In English, we have been discovering how Alan Turing and his team cracked the enigma machine, resulting in messages being decoded. We held a debate, sharing our thoughts on whether it was the correct decision to allow attacks to happen, knowing that they were aware of what was happening. We will be writing our balanced arguments next week.

    Welcome back Year 4. This week, we have started out new topic of the Mayans, discovering that their civilisation lasted around 2,500 years and they brought chocolate into our lives 🙂. In Science, we are studying Animals and their habitats. Remember swimming starts on 6th March... exciting!

    Mon 06 Feb 2023

    In Year 4, we have written our newspapers about Nigel Vardy's misadventure on Mount McKinley and have researched Edmund Hillary in order to write a biography of his like. We have been continuing to study the water cycle and now understand why the sea does not disappear due to evaporation.

    Please remember that we will be at Clip and Climb on 9th Feb from 12.15. We will be back by the end of the school day. Children need a packed lunch (unless ordered from the kitchen), PE kit with trainers and lots of determination and resilience 🙂
