• Science -Planting in Elm Class Y2

  Fri 10 Jun 2022 Miss Pearson

  The sun was out in force so Elm Class decided to plant up their pots with tasty food to eat at the end of the term.
   

  We learned about compost and the nutrients it held for plants. We planted Strawberries, tomatoes and some lettuces.  We also planted some Nasturtiums which Miss Pearson told us was a flower we could eat.  We hope to have a tasty salad soon!
   

  

• PSHE Money Maple class

  Fri 10 Jun 2022

  Following on from our interest in currency in our PSHE lesson Mrs Cunningham kindly brought in notes and coins that her husband has collected while working around the world. The children were so excited! We found a 10,000 Vietnamese dong note which we thought was a lot of money until Mrs Cunningham told us that it only equates to 35p!

  Fri 10 Jun 2022 Mrs.Hacking

  This term, we have enjoyed learning all about castles, why and who they were built for and the types of jobs people did in a castle. Over the last few days we have built our own impressive castles using our knowledge about castles to construct them. We have worked carefully and are all very proud of our castles.  🏰 🛡

• Celebrating the Jubilee in Elm Class

  Mon 30 May 2022 Miss Pearson

  We had a wonderful time on the last day of term when we thought about what rules we would make if we were Queen or King for a day . We played with Pic Collage so we could attach our face onto the body of a real Monarch , and then we painted portraits of our Queen in the style of Andy Warhol. We hope you like our results .

• Castle building in Ash Class

  Fri 27 May 2022

  Our History unit this term has been castles. We have learned about their features, locations and what life might have been like in the past if you lived or worked in a castle.

  We used our knowledge from this History unit and applied it in DT when learning about structures. We designed and built our very own sturdy castles and are very proud of them!

  

• PSHE in Maple class

  Fri 27 May 2022

  This morning in Maple class we have been researching the different currencies around the world as part of our working in the world topic in PSHE. We found out that the currency of Russia is the Russian rouble. We then went on to research other currencies in countries we were interested in. 

  

• Zog PE in Ash Class

  Fri 27 May 2022

  In PE this half term we have been developing our fundamental movements and have linked them to the story of Zog by Julia Donaldson from our English unit about stories by the same author. We have really enjoyed practising to throw over arm and underarm, which we pretended was Zog breathing out fireballs, zigzagging around cones like Zog flying through the sky and jumping and landing like Zog does when he takes off flying and then lands safely down on the ground. We also used the climbing frame to practise climbing up the tower to rescue the princess. It was lots of fun and we got more confident each lesson.

  

• The Battle of Britain with Professor Paris

  Thu 26 May 2022 Mr Davies

  The children in Ben Nevis class were treated today by learning from a World War Two expert, Professor Micheal Paris, a former senior lecturer at The University of Central Lancashire and published author. 
   

  Firstly, the children wowed Professor Paris with their knowledge of World War Two. He then shared his extensive knowledge around the topic of the Battle of Britain as well as sharing a range of sources. What a fantastic afternoon we all had.
