Science- boat building and testing
What an afternoon! The children put their scientific knowledge of materials and their properties to the test by building the boats that they designed last week. We then tested each boat’s ability to float and sail across our windy (fan fuelled) lake! They all succeeded!
Class 4 - Netball - shooting
We have been practising our Netball shooting in Pe today.
Stepping stones
The children enjoy working on their gross motor skills, using the stepping stones to create pathways across the carpet, balancing and turn taking as they complete the course.
Sewing
As part of our Design and Technology unit, we have been practising our sewing skills. We have threaded our own needles and tied a knot at the end of the thread. We have mastered cross stitch, running stitch and applique. Excellent work Class 3.

This week we have read the blurb for our new English text. We have made inferences to predict what may happen in the story.
So far we can infer that he is precise because he does the same thing every day and he is a wealthy man because he lives on Saville Row.
We would like to know why such…
Our Remembrance Poppies
Class 1 have been very busy creating their own poppies and working together to make poppy wreaths for our Remembrance service next week.

We hope you can join us for the service…
Exploring circles and triangles
This week, Class 1 have been exploring circles and triangles and talking about their distinctive properties.
The children then used their creative skills to make some fantastic pictures using different sized circles and triangles.
How lovely are their pictures!
