Year 6 had a great time at Go Ape for their very well-deserved end of SATs treat! The children were so excited and were fearless going up on the high ropes course and zip wires! We were so proud of how they represented the school too.
Curriculum
Y5 Art – Architecture
This week, year 5 have been busy dreaming big! Over the past few weeks, we have been learning about architecture and dream homes. We have been exploring architectural features and design in homes both large and small. We have been working in teams to create our own dream homes using ideas from our sketch books.
Year 3 Art
Year 3 have explored Vincent Van Gogh, Alice Kettle and Hannah Rae in art. They thought about different shades and brush strokes, as well as texture. They were able to add stitches to their artist inspired work today and we’re all proud of their finished products!
Year 2 History – Titanic
This half term Year 2 have been learning about the Titanic. To learn more about life on board, they used picture sources to find evidence about the different things people could do and the differences between 1st class and 3rd class.
Y5 Flood Defence Visitors
This week, Year 5 explored flood defences as part of their Geography and English project about rivers. Thank you to Mr Marsh and Dr Richardson for taking time out of their day to share the important work they do – we asked lots of questions and even got to stop the flood!
Year 3 Fossils
Today, Year 3 designed their very own fossils using clay and outdoor materials.
They also learnt about the stages of fossilisation and created their own zig zag book.
Y5 Greek Day
Before the Easter break, we had a Greek day; we enjoyed designing and making our own Greek inspired pots; we all made Greek salads and we held our very own Greek Olympics (without the wrestling!)
Dentist visit
To continue our topic of “People who help us” we had a dentist come in this week to talk with Reception about the importance of looking after our teeth. We learnt about why we brush our teeth, how many times to brush our teeth a day, how long to brush our teeth each time and the techniques to use. Nikki even brought Barry the dinosaur to help and we got to dress up as a dentist!
Y2 Snettisham Trip
Year 2 had a fantastic time at Snettisham Park and had a wonderful day learning about the different animals there. They fed lambs, collected and measured eggs, fed goats and even went on a deer safari!
Year 3 DT and Science
Year 3 completed their puppet theatres today and explored how shadows changed size depending on the light source distance. They were able to design shadow puppets and perform a mini show to their friends. What a great afternoon!
