• Year 4 News

  Fri 13 Jun 2025 Mrs Marshall & Miss Stepheneson

  This week in Year 4 we have finished our English unit on writing a Viking-inspired narrative. We have also started a new unit on writing a newspaper report about Beowulf’s attack. In Maths, we have been finishing our unit on decimals and have been rounding them and converting them into fractions. In Science, we have started our new unit on sound and have learnt about how sounds are produced. On Thursday afternoon, we took a trip down to our local library to read and check out books and were lucky to be able to learn some of the basics of chess! We have also started our new topic on The British Isles and have learnt about the differences between the countries that make up Great Britain and the United Kingdom etc. and what constitutes the British Isles. We have now finished our torches and learn about Earl Sandwich as part of our next DT project; the man who the sandwich was named after.

  

• Year 3 News

  Fri 13 Jun 2025 Miss Brown & Mrs Cave

  Year 3 have worked really hard this week in all their lessons. In maths, we have been focusing on the notoriously tricky topic of time. The children have been reading both analogue and digital clocks and working out duration of events. Please ask your child to continue working on this at home - any practice is good practice!

• Year 6 News

  Fri 06 Jun 2025 Miss Ottowell

  This week, Year 6 have started swimming lessons again. It was great to see that the skills they learnt before Christmas have been remembered. 

   

  We have completed our WW2 topic and have now started learning about Scandinavia. So far, we have located Scandinavia, capital cities and other important geographical features. We have also found out about the climate.

   

  In Science, we have been learning about the organs in the human body and what circulation is. We discovered some amazing facts such as the small intestines being 6-7metres long. How do they fit in?

   

  Have a lovely weekend.

• Year 5 News

  Fri 06 Jun 2025 Miss Hubert & Mr Harding

  Back with a bang in year five. We are all now fascinated with the Terrible Tudors and how they used to live. In English we are working to complete a letter written by the Shakespearian character Macbeth to his wicked murderous wife. We continued with coordinates in Maths and after some fantastic end of unit assessment scores moved on to decimals. Topic was taken up with learning about the Tudor, War of the Roses and in science we researched reversable and irreversible changes.

  Spanish is back, recapping our family knowledge and in P.E we are learning both rounders on Thursdays and tennis on Mondays. Art on Fridays will test the children’s portrait drawing skills, looking at how the Tudors painted royalty and why.

• Year 4 News

  Fri 06 Jun 2025 Mrs Marshall & Miss Stepheneson

  This week has been a busy one in Year 4. Due to the shorter term before the holidays, we have spent this week finishing our Topic lessons on the Vikings and Anglo Saxons, looking at the Kings and their succession. We have also finished our last lesson on Electricity looking at the work of Michael Faraday and have finished our DT topic of making our torches. We are also excited to have resumed with our Spanish lessons and have been recapping our work on sounds, adjectives and colours. In Maths, we are looking at decimals and the partitioning of tenths and hundredths. In English, we have started a new unit on writing a narrative based on the Viking Myth of Thor and the Giants. Next week, we will finish our Viking inspired myths in English and move onto our new Topics; sound for Science and The British Isles for Geography.
