Plastic Pirates
The children have worked incredibly hard to learn and perform a play in such a short term. A special 'thank you' to all of their adults at home who have produced some incredible, innovative costumes and helped the children to learn their lines. We are so proud of them, as I am sure you all are too.
Steve Antony
We had a fantastic visit from the author and illustrator, Steve Antony. The children listened to the story 'Unplugged,' and were able to tell him all about the stories that they had written based on his book. Steve Antony then treated them to his new book, 'The Queens Hat,' just in time for our Jubilee celebrations. He then drew some of the illustrations for them which the children absolutely loved. Meeting a real live author can increase children's interest in books, help them understand how books are produced and boost the confidence of all our aspiring writers.
Term 4 - What a term!
We have been so busy this term with lots of exciting projects!
We had a Latin lesson from some students at Haysfield, did some Jackson Pollock style art, learnt how to make charts on a computer and held debates on whether or not Jesus came for Outsiders. We ended the term building and racing our own junk model cars! Well done to our winners, Oscar and Isla!

Term 1
We've had a very busy first term, here are some of the things we've been up to!
In English, we wrote a class poem about the sun, have a read below:
The shining sun is super fun,
If the sun is shining, I am smiling.
Like a flower in the sky,
The shining sun smiles.
Like a ball in the middle of the solar system,
The sun is a shining guide, running through the sky,
I was running with the sun,
Because the sun make my fun.
I love the sun, oh I do love the sun!
The sun makes my dreams come true.
Roman feast - We kicked off our Roman project with a Roman feast.
We tried bread and honey, dates, cold porridge (that Roman slaves would have eaten) and roasted vegetables! Luckily, we didn't have to try any of the exotic meat that Romans would have eaten, such as zebras, ostriches or lions!
In RE, we have been practicing the art of silent reflection.
This has really helped us to focus our thoughts and prayers and understand our learning, so much so that it's our favourite form of reflection now!
Here we are, reflecting on the important messages we learn from Jonah and the Whale and thinking about how we can be prophets in this day and age.
In Project, we rounded off our learning about Romans by making some Roman pots.
We worked hard to form their shape and make sure they were water-tight so that Romans could keep oil (or wine!) in them.
We enjoyed using old pencils to make markings and some of us even made handles and lids!
Welcome to a new year!
