Our Eco Group turned data into action! 🌍📊 Using findings from our last session, pupils created pictograms and bar charts, then role-played speaking to parents about the impact of idling 🚗💨. They’re now ready to invite families to sign our anti-idling pledge and help make our school air cleaner! 💚

This week, Reception children have been learning all about 🐞 minibeasts 🐜. The children enjoyed using ♻️ junk modelling to create their own mini beasts 🐛, writing 📖 fact books, and describing ✏️ their chosen creatures. We also had lots of fun 😄 taking on the role of 🩺 vets, caring for animals 🐶🐾 in our role-play area 🎭.

Reception children had a wonderful fun filled day at Odds Farm. Feeding and petting the animals, tractor rides and playtime adventures. A fantastic day 🧑🏻‍🌾🐖🐑🐐🚜✨

Our Year 4 children joined pupils from St Joseph’s and St George’s Primary Schools at a Tag Rugby event organised by Saracen’s. This followed a four week programme of learning the skills of the game. They had a great time 🏉🏟️

In History this week 📜, Year 4 children really enjoyed 😊 looking at the 1911 census 🧾 for a nearby road 🏡 to discover more 🔍 about the households 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 living there at the time ⏳.

Upcoming events.!🪩 and 🧁✨

Thank you to all the families that took part in our annual break the rules day. 🚫
All the money raised is going directly to the school, we will share the total funds raised once they have been counted! 🥰

Year 6 have had a fantastic end to the week 🎉, working collaboratively 🤝 to build their own bridges 🌉! They explored tessellating patterns 🔷🔶, thinking carefully about how shapes fit together 🧩, while also focusing on stability ⚖️ and reinforcement 🏗️ to make their structures as strong as possible 💪. It was wonderful to see such teamwork 🤗, creativity 🎨, and problem-solving 🧠 in action. We’re looking forward to completing our bridges next week 📅 and putting them to the test 🏁!

Nothing like cuddles with our our five little newly hatched ducklings 🐣🐥🐥🐥🐥❤️

Lilly, Gino, Bow and Barbie. One name still to be decided 🤔

In RE, Year 3 children wrote’ I wonder …’ questions about art work that depicted the Road to Emmaus. Then they found their answers through reading the scripture Luke 24:13-35 📖
