  Nursery enjoyed celebrating World Maths Day on Friday. We took part in lots of fun activities to practise our maths skills.

• Year 3 are Theologians…

  Thu 21 Mar 2024 Mrs Hudson and Miss Stigant

  In Year 3, we have been learning all about festivals and why they are important to religious communities. We have looked at the Easter story and thought about whether Christians would feel Easter was a happy festival or not and why. 
  We then had Reverend Karen in who came to speak to us about how Christians prepare for Easter in their homes and in the church.

• Year 1 are musicians…

  Wed 20 Mar 2024

  Daisy Bank children had some wonderful visitors in their assembly this morning. A string quartet from the Royal Northern College of Music. They played lots of different music to represent different seasons and animals. The children (and teachers)  absolutely loved listening to the music. Year 1 then had an extra special treat of being able to have a closer look at a violin in small groups and play it.
