Reception have recently made some fantastic puppets in DT inspired by what career they would like in the future.  Today in PSHE we discussed what skills we would need to do those jobs and talked about how the subjects we learn at school can help

On Wednesday Year 1 and 2 spent the afternoon at the Chantry. They had a busy afternoon completing a range of different sporting activities. They had a go at curling, obstacles and target games. It was a great afternoon and the children enjoyed thems

Well done to the children who have been selected by the lunchtime staff for this half term's table of awesomeness!
These pupils have demonstrated our happy lunch time values and have been exceptional role models to their peers.

Well done to these pupils: Henry, George, Daley, Katie, May, Millie, Caiden, Noah & Emily.

In science, Skylarks were set the challenge of helping Humpty Dumpty stay safe! Using their knowledge of the properties of materials, the children had to choose two different materials that they predicted would save Humpty from cracking the next time he fell off the wall. The children showed all that they had learnt this half-term, justifying their choices using scientific vocabulary and having fun at the same time!

Today in Dance, the children put together and performed a Bhangra dance. Bhangra is a dance that originated in the Punjab region of a India and was a celebratory dance during harvest time. Despite their time limitation, they worked hard as a group to construct a routine and to follow it accurately. 

Reception carried out a science investigation this week to free the penguins trapped in the ice cubes. They predicted which substances would make the ice melt more quickly and allow them to rescue the penguins.
