Key Stage 2 Singing

This week we had a visitor come in to run a singing workshop. John (from St. Peter Mancroft church) came in to talk to the children about their choir and the opportunity to become a chorister. If your child is interested in this opportunity and has not received a letter, please speak to Mrs Sims!

 

 

 

Chinese New Year Celebrations

Yesterday a group of children from year 5 were invited to Norwich School to join in with their Chinese New Year celebrations.

There was Chinese calligraphy writing, a tea ceremony, Chinese dragon dancing, the Chinese New Year story and a Chinese reading competition. The event ended with a small Chinese banquet buffet.

Many thanks to Norwich School for inviting us.

 

 

Times Table Songs

Our talented year 4, 5 and 6 pupils have been impressing us with these times table songs. It’s all part of our 8 week focus on developing times table knowledge in school.

Year 6 sing the 12 times table 

 

Year 5 sing the 7 times table 

 

Year 4 sing the 3 times table 

 

Treasure Hunt a Success!

As part of our times table focus, children had the opportunity to join in with a pirate themes treasure hunt. As well as hunting round the school grounds to find the hidden clues, the KS2 children needed to answer multiplication questions. Children in EYFS and KS1 were challenged to find all the even numbers and order them in a sequence. We had great fun and there was even prizes! Thank you for everyone who joined in the fun.

 

Year 2 Reading Café

Year 2 had a great time at their reading cafe. The children worked with their adults to draw animals for their ‘Animal Toy Shop’!

High Table Winners

Congratulations to all of the children who were awarded a high table token this week for going above and beyond in their learning. We’re really proud of your achievements.
