    On Tuesday, Year 3 had a really exciting enrichment day all about the Romans with an outside provider called Partake! In the morning, we looked at and identified Roman artefacts that had been excavated by archaeologists. We also wrote on Roman tablets, built Roman arch bridges, played Roman games and made some colourful mosaics. In the afternoon, we learnt how the Romans dressed and what a Roman soldier wore to battle. Summer and Conor in 3W modelled the Roman outfits and Jack C and Lily did the same in 3M. The final activity consisted of using real Roman shields to walk through a Roman battle formation whilst barbarians threw rocks at them. We had a really exciting day and learnt a lot about Ancient Rome! Please check out the website for photos of all the children.

    This week, Senora Creese was able to come into school for the first time this year. The children really enjoyed their lesson and are looking forward to next week’s Spanish lesson. In PE, Mr Tivey introduced 5W to cross country-4 cicuits of the entire school grounds. Phew!

    We have had a busy week in y4. We have been mastering the 24 hour clock, competing in a blindfolded egg and spoon race and debating whether school uniform should be banned! There were lots of fantastic arguments for and against this which resulted in some very effective persuasive letters. In topic, we used the clues and artefacts that were discovered at Sutton Hoo, to decide who might have been buried there. Great detective work!

    Although this has been a shorter week, it has still been a busy week. We have been using protractors in Maths to measure angles, we have studied parts of the Jungle book and Just So Stories both by Rudyard Kipling and we have learned about Scottish celebrations. In PE, Mr Tivey set up a cross country course that was rather exhausting. We are looking forward to setting up some investigations in Science in the next few weeks.

    In preparation for our Year 5 and 6 performance, we have started watching the Lion King in school.  I can't believe there are some children who have not seen it before!  Auditions for acting roles are underway and all the children are very excited.  In our DARE sessions, we have been learning about peer pressure and strategies for staying strong and not giving in to it.
