Keep up to date with all the latest news happening in school at the moment.
This week in PSHE we have been learning how to live healthy lifestyle. We created posters to share with the other classes to educate them on what we have learnt.
This week year 3 have been learning our new story Anansi and the Tiger. They have been showing off their actions and story telling skills!
Year 2 have been practicing their shading and use of colour this week in Art. We have been studying the artist Claude Monet and in particular his paintings of waterlilies. The children have then been experimenting with paint and using white to make a lighter tone and black to make a darker tone recreating the colours from his paintings.
Year 4 have had a great first week back being super learners. They have been mathematicians measuring objects within the classroom, musicians composing their own melodies and historians enquiring about women’s rights.
Reception have been looking at repeated patterns this week. They have used different resources to show a range of repeated patterns.
This week, Year 5 have been drawing and painting still life versions of fruit, focusing on perspective. The still life artwork has been inspired by the works of Georgia O’Keefe and Paul Cezanne. They have used similar techniques to the artists to create their final piece. The children showed great care and concentration!
Year 4 have continued their work on Harold Riley this week and have created their own piece focussing on perspective. They have sketched their landscape then added water colours using a range of techniques. Well done Year 4 they look fabulous!
Year 2 have been creating Campaign Posters as part of Black History Month, focusing on the particular event of ‘The Bristol Bus Riots.’ Children learnt about the boycott in 1963 and how the lead activists Roy Hackett and Paul Stephenson’s campaign led to the passing of The Race Relations Act.
This week, Year 5 have been exploring the still life artwork of Georgia O’Keefe and Paul Cezanne. They have been looking at the techniques the artists have used and tried to replicate the techniques themselves. After the half term, Year 5 will be creating their own still life drawings.
Reception have been using different resources to write letters. Some have wrote their names.
