    This has been a busy full first week back with lots of assessments taking place so we can start English and Maths next week. We have been able to start our new topic of the Egyptians and the children have shown a great interest in this enjoying painting their salt dough plaques and mummifying tomatoes! They were also excited about Music with Mrs Woolley too... a great first week back.

    Just a reminder that PE kit includes a plain white T Shirt please.

    Welcome back to school for the new year. We have enjoyed getting to know each other over the last couple of days and have even made salt dough, creating Egyptian plaques with hieroglyphics. The Egyptians will be our topic this half term and we will be studying digestion and teeth in Science. PE days are Tuesday and Thursdays and children need to come in PE kit (plain white T shirt, plain black shorts or joggers and a plain black hoodie) on those days.

    Year three have had a pretty hot start to the week but have really kept cool under the canopy with water and Lego. We have completed a Science topic this week on bones and muscles. We have completed our PSHE lessons on Changing me and the children were so mature and respectful. They asked lots of questions. They have had a go at archery today and I can see a couple of budding Robin Hoods! They can take home their books tomorrow. Have a lovely weekend and see you on Monday.

    What a week! The extreme temperatures have certainly meant a strange week for all. We tried our best to stay as cool as possible and hydrated, enjoying the outside for short periods of time in the shade. We have been able to have fun outside though when Grace Walters, a female footballer from Nottingham Forest Football Club worked with the children on their dribbling and tackling. In the afternoon, Year 4 invited parents to come in and support their children making their sandwiches and completing a marketing project with posters and packaging designs. Nerf Wars and Archery were also enjoyed... only a few days left before a well-earned holiday.

    Year 3 have had a really great week. They have been on a field trip to Stapleford for their current Geography topic and have mapped the kinds of shops that Stapleford has. While we were out on the walk, the children were incredibly well behaved and many people stopped to say to us how lovely it was to see the children in the town and how well behaved they were. When they all got back to school they analysed their findings and then had 12 parents come to a parent workshop in their classroom. The parents worked with the children to create graphs and data from the walk. Because the weather was so nice, they were able to work in the Year 3 outdoor area. Thanks again for the continued support of the Year 3 parents.

    This week has been another busy week. We studied OS maps on Monday, comparing Windemere to Skegness and  explored which materials muffled sounds best, using a data logger to measure the decibals. We have also been able to spend a day in the classes for next year, meeting our new teachers.

    This week, the children have been working hard completing their summer assessments- some have claimed they have enjoyed them! We also enjoyed discussing sandwiches and what their favourite bread and fillings were. We have also been exploring a British map in order to locate cities. We are looking forward to some exciting events next week such as the School Disco.
