Today, we had a visit from PC Viv. She taught us lots about how to keep safe online and about age limits for apps and games. We had a very informative and useful discussion. Well done to all the children for getting involved and sharing their knowledge on this topic!
We worked in Mantle groups to come up with ideas for selling items on a stall at a Victorian Fayre, with a focus on eco-friendly products and an awareness of carbon footprints! We tried to make sure that our products were locally sourced and that we used recycled materials where possible. We had to try and make a profit! We calculated the cost of rent, wages, materials and advertising amongst other things and then took these costs away from our total of items that would need to be sold to see whether we had made a profit or loss!
We have been investigating materials in science this week with Mr Clarke!
We enjoyed our literacy enrichment morning on Wednesday! We were looking at spelling strategies and handwriting!

Our school ducks, Spike and Wellington, are enjoying their holidays- swimming in the river and plenty of food!
The children received their bibles and enjoyed a lovely farewell service, given by Rev. Petra and John Meredith, not forgetting ‘Bob’ the snail!
What a fantastic time we all had! We were so proud of all the children, they behaved impeccably and many of them pushed their boundaries.
I wonder if you can spot who is on the monkey climb?
We spent the morning running round the field. This was such good fun, even the ducks decided to join in!
