It’s been a busy couple of days and the children have been loving their reading! 
 

Our slumber party was a real success on Wednesday and the children loved our book called Billy’s Bucket by Kes Gray.

We learnt about the author Nadia Shireen on World Book Day and the children enjoyed listening to her stories and drawing in her illustrative style. 

This week year 3 have had their Belong, Believe and Achieve workshop. They have thoroughly enjoyed showing parents their money skills in maths, how many bones in the human body they can name from our Science lessons, finding the names of countries that support FairTrade and they also showcased their amazing work on the glockenspiels from music. 

This week Year 4 have been exploring ancient Egypt. We have looked how mummies were made and what the Pharaohs took with them into the afterlife. We’ve learned all about Howard Carter and his famous discovery. 

Reception have been amazing at caring for our new arrivals in Reception this week. They were so happy when 10 chicks hatched from their eggs. They loved being able to stroke them for the first time!

Nursery enjoyed pancakes during snack time today. We discussed where Shrove Tuesday came from and how it is the start of Lent. The children enjoyed picking their topping and spreading it over the pancake. 

Today, Year 6 started to investigate volume. We were tasked with making different cuboids which had the same volume. We had a great time and enjoyed exploring our learning practically.
