Year 6 Tudor Life Project

Year 6 dressed up as Tudors as part of their class project. We had a great day taking part in Drama sessions and then made our own comic style presentations to depict Tudor times.

Year 5 Paultons Park Trip

Year 5 went to Paultons Park this half term. We were feeling very excited about going, however we were also feeling nervous about going on some of the rides! Firstly, we went to Professor Blast’s Learning Lab for a session about minibeasts and how they adapt to their habitats. We enjoyed learning about the Macleay stick insect which is very clever as it could disguise itself as a scorpion to avoid being eaten. We also learnt about the physics behind some of the rides in the park in the afternoon by using the interactive models that you can see in the pictures.

During the rest of the day we went on all the rides. Many of us enjoyed the Cobra because of the swerves and spins. We also enjoyed the Magma ride and seeing the new Dinosaur section of the park. Luckily we didn’t get too wet either! At the end of the day we went to the gift shop and got some souvenirs to remember the park.

We all had a great day as we had lots of fun as well as learning some interesting facts about Science!

Trip to The Living Rainforest

Year 2 went to the Living Rainforest this week.  We found out so many interesting facts about the rainforest and animal adaptations.

"I loved the Living Rainforest because we saw amazing, colourful Toucans and we learnt about what they eat.  Did you know that Toucans eat Brazil nuts?" - Ollie

"The best part about our trip was seeing the hairy Sloth.  She moved really slowly.  Did you know that the word sloth comes from the word slow?" - Lara

If you want to find out about amazing rainforest animals you should visit the Living Rainforest.

Here are some photos from our trip.....

Squirrels Class - Spring Walk

In Squirrels we have been looking at the signs of spring. We went for a walk around the school and spotted flowers, buds on trees and new shoots emerging.

We have some tadpoles visiting from the school pond. We will be watching them over the next few weeks to see how they grow and change into frogs.

Year 6 Mary Rose Trip

Year 6 had a fantastic time in Portsmouth when we went to see the Mary Rose. During our day we had the opportunity to dress up in some Tudor clothes.

We are currently producing some amazing writing as part of our topic and look forward to sharing our work with you soon....

The Big Bad Wolf’s Birthday Party in the Story Woods

All the Year 1 children and the Three Little Pigs were invited to the Big Bad Wolf’s birthday party in the woods, but strangely the Big Bad Wolf didn’t turn up!

Can you guess why?
