This is your life!

Children in Years 2, 3, and 4 were absolutely fantastic in their recent performance of ‘This is your Life’. The performance was about the life and works or author Dr Seuss. As part of their mantle of the expert commission for this term, they had the task of writing and performing three plays based on stories written by Dr Seuss. Year 2 wrote their version of ‘The Cat in the Hat’, year 3 wrote their play about ‘The Lorax’ and year 3 pupils created their version of ‘Horton Hears a Who’. Da iawn Pawb!

Well-being

We enjoyed a fabulous end to a very busy half term. We made chocolate rice crispy cakes and we completed a range of circus activities and games. Our sunflowers have now been sent home and we can’t wait to see how tall they grow!

Year 5 have started forest school sessions with Miss Jones. We have enjoyed den building and creating bug hotels. We used the knives safely to sharpen sticks to use as tent pegs. We are looking forward to starting fires in our sessions soon.

Y5/6 STEM Day

Year 5 and 6 had a visit from the RAF museum, where they had a go at creating their own rockets. They had to think about their design to see which one would travel the longest distance. We went on to the field to launch the rockets by pumping up pressure into their launching machine. The second activity was following instructions to make a hopper using the lego spike resources. We had a great morning!

Forest School Fires

Today Year 6 had their second Forest School session of the term. They want to have s’mores at some point but we needed to develop our fire building skills first. Two groups showed great team-work, communication skills and perseverance to create flames and sustain them. It was a little windy and we now all smell smokey!
