Update from Year 6 teachers
Fri 06 Nov 2020A fantastic start back in Year 6 and it has been so lovely to see everyone. In English, we have been looking at some well-known war poetry in preparation for Remembrance Day next week. In maths, we have been working hard on long division, which has been tough, but the children have persevered and are doing really well.

Updates from Year 4 Teachers
Fri 06 Nov 2020It has been brilliant to see everyone back in school this week and getting straight back into their work. In Science, we found out what types of teeth we have and why they are different. We used mirrors to thoroughly explore the teeth that we have. In reading, we became Howard Carter, the archaeologist who discovered Tutankhamun's tomb and enjoyed miming his actions, to show our understanding. There were some super acting skills! We have now completed our Ancient Egypt topic and next week, we will start our new topic all about South Africa.

Update from Mrs Marshall 5M
Fri 06 Nov 2020It was great to be back on Tuesday in front of a full class of smiling children, who were ready to learn again at the start of this new half term. We have focused on finishing the America topic by investigating human and physical features of this country and why the times are different on the East and West coasts (time zones). The art sculptures were painted and we searched further into space, learning about the seasons and why we have them.

Message from Miss Ottowell to all children at home
Fri 16 Oct 2020Hello Year 4,
We hope you and your families are all OK. Thank you to those children who have joined me on Teams this week. It has been a very different teaching experience but I hope you found it useful. We can't wait to see your smiling faces back in the classroom after half term. Stay safe.

Update from Year 3 Teachers
Fri 16 Oct 2020Year three have had a great week. They have written some fabulous expanded noun phrases in English and written instructions for a new machine for Wallace and Gromit. They have finished their topic on Continents and Oceans and enjoyed building bridges this afternoon as part of their D.T. work.

Fri 09 Oct 2020Year 3 have started their new Maths topic this week and are starting to learn how to cross over 10 when adding and subtracting. In English, we have been learning about instructions and fronted adverbials of time.
