On Thursday 7th November, some children from Year 6 took part in an interschool hockey competition. We are very proud of their sportsmanship, the way they represented our school and the amount of goals they amassed!
This term, Year 2 have been learning about Edward Tingatinga. They explored different paints before completing their final pieces in the style of their artist. They chose different African animals that they had been learning about in geography for the basis of their pieces.
Year 6 enjoyed their residential at PGL Caythorpe. The children all pushed themselves to try new experiences and took part in a variety of activities including: abseiling, giant swing, archery, zipwire, ambush, orienteering, nightline, canoeing and a disco.
Burghley House – Tuesday 8th October
Year 1 went on a school trip to Burghley House as part of their history unit on toys and childhood. They had a tour of the house and learnt all about how the Victorians lived. They then were able to look at different Victorian artefacts and had to guess what they were used for. They particularly enjoyed trying on the old hats. The class then had a workshop making toys that would have been used by the Victorians, and they enjoyed sharing their new toys with each other.
Year 2 have been learning about communication as part of their PSHCE work. This week they practiced their listening skills by listening to step by step instructions for drawing an alien. They then compared it to the image that had been described.
Puppets
In Textiles, Year 1 have been designing, making and evaluating puppets. The children chose a character from the tale of 'Little Red Riding Hood' to turn into a puppet. They learnt how to join using glue and decorated their puppets following their design.
