This afternoon, we were learning the features of mountains. We had great fun making our own mountains and volcanoes out of play-dough!

Year 5 and 6 have learnt some really useful skills when riding their bikes on the road this week.

Year 5 and 6 are enjoying their bikeability training this week with Cyclewise.

To start off our exciting Extreme Earth topic, Steven Wright came in for an afternoon. He showed us some of his vast rock and fossil collection and some videos of real volcanoes erupting. Then we had great fun making some volcanoes erupt!

We have had a fantastic Art morning to finish off Arts week. Earlier in the week, the KS2 children planned and created activities for KS1 and Reception to take part in today. We had 7 groups who rotated round the activities led by KS2. It was lovely to see everyone working so well together and learning some new skills too!

As part of Arts week we have an artist, Julie Harrison, in helping us to create our own felt hangings. Today, the whole school worked together to recreate the beautiful view from our field. We are really pleased with the results, and we can’t wait to make the second one tomorrow!

We had a very exciting day today! Year 3 and 4 completed their biking training this morning. Then this afternoon in Science, year 3 and 4 made water cycle bags and year 5 and 6 finished their musical instruments.

In French this week, we performed our French puppet shows!

BAE Systems came in to lead a Robotics Day today. Year 4, 5 and 6 had a fantastic day modifying and programming robots to complete different challenges!

Year 3 and 4 made a discovery! In the night, the Iron Man came into our field and munched his way through some metal. Year 3 and 4 interviewed some eye witnesses to report on the incident.
