We enjoyed a week of celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee. Year 6 focused on the 1960's decade. We looked at art from the 60's and listened to the music that was popular at the time. Most of the children are now fans of the Beatles. We researched key events that happened during this period. We ended the week with a little party.

The children have really enjoyed finding out about The Queen this week. They have loved dressing up and pretending to be The Queen sitting on the throne, painting her portrait, making crowns, writing facts about her and much more. The week was finished off with a lovely picnic.

Making windmills for Mr. Mouse
Date: 23rd May 2022 @ 4:25pm
This half term, Y1 have made windmills for their client, Mr. Mouse. They had to follow his design criteria: it must be stable, it must have windows and a door, it should be decorated in the colours he likes and have tulips on (he is from Holland!). The children know that their windmill is made of a structure and has an axle to turn the turbine (sails) - they did such a good job! After they had finished they evaluated their finished products.

Three of our local PSCOs visited Y1 today to talk about this half term's PSHRE learning question: 'Who helps us to keep safe?'
They talked about their role in the community and how they help to keep people safe; how to call '999' and who to ask for and how to stay safe when using technology. After that they answered any other questions that the children had.

Time Board Games!
Today, year 4 have been revising how to tell the time in 5 minute intervals. This is a year 3 objective but it is always worth recapping it to make sure we have a solid understanding!
We decided to do this by playing a telling the time board game! The children loved playing this game and learnt a lot from it!

As part of our Design and Technology lesson, year 3 looked at seasonal foods from around the world. They researched the foods which can be grown in the UK and ones which we have to transport in. We then planned our Vegetable tart recipe. We tried to keep to seasonal foods from the UK but we also used vegetables from other countries. We learned the health and safety skills needed in a kitchen and then baked our tarts. The tarts looked delicious and most of the children enjoyed them.
