This week, in science, class 2 have created a model of the digestive system. They used a range of materials to recreate what happens to our food when it enters our body and then used scientific language to explain the process. A messy but fun way to kick of our new unit.

Class 1 have enjoyed the spring weather today with lots of outdoor learning through play. They have also enjoyed learning about farms and farm animals.
 

Today in maths we explored correspondence problems. We completed practical activities to calculate the maths behind combinations of snacks and drinks, gloves and hats or ice cream and toppings. Lots of maths and lots of fun!

As class 3 came to the end of their topic on “The Circulatory System”  they had to look at the lifestyle of their favourite sportsperson.  They had to look at 4 areas which included diet, lifestyle, drugs and exercise. For each area we had to think about how it could affect their performance.  We…

What a fantastic week class 1 have had exploring the book ‘Whatever next!’ They have explored the lovely story, created a class rocket and made their own cardboard box creations just like Bear did in the story.  Such a busy but fun week!  
Next week we will have more space fun especially with our…

We have enjoyed exploring our RE topic on Sikhism and have learnt all about the Gurdwara. This week we explored the sacred food Karah Prasad which is offered to all at the Gurdwara. We then made our own to taste test.

We really enjoyed applying our science knowledge to creating new musical instruments. We then investigated how the sound was made and how we could adjust the volume.

As part of our learning about Chinese new year, one of our friends brought in some yummy chinese treats for us to try. Thank you to you and your family for sharing these with us.
