Autumn term- Through the Ages

We have had a very busy, but very fun Autumn term! We have loved our time outside with David, making wild wraps, foraging for food, making spears and having a spear throwing competition.

We were joined by visitors from Murton Park for our theme topic, where we learned about life in the Stone Age. We enjoyed an afternoon of rugby skills at Conyers school and we also enjoyed lovely visit to TGI Fridays!

For our VIPERs, we enjoyed reading the book 'The Iron Man' and did not want it to end! Towards Christmas, we have enjoyed visits to church and also worked with Ian Ramsey school for our Prayer Spaces. We worked so hard to learn songs for our Christingle service and our parents loved it! 

We are ready for a Christmas break before being back for the Spring term!

Spring term- Rocks, Relics and Rumbles

Although it was a short term - Spring was a busy one!

Our topic was 'Rocks, Relics and Rumbles' and we have loved learning about the earth, especially about volcanoes. In science we tested forces and magnets and in art we created fossil stamps and sketching. For computing we learned about branching databases and programming through scratch. 

Our VIPERS book was 'The Alien in the Jam Factory' and we laughed all the way through at Scooter and the alien who invaded! We are looking forward to our next book after Easter.
We have loved singing and learning new songs with Miss Sheraton and Mr Gibson, especially the 'It's a Wonderful Day' song.


Lauren from St Paul’s church came and led Easter prayer spaces which allowed us to reflect on what we are thankful for and what we would wish for the world. In RE we continued with this work and thought about why Christians call the day Jesus died Good Friday.

What a fun filled Spring term!

Summer term- Emperors and Empires

What a fun but busy summer term we have had!  We have learnt about plants and their parts in science then sketched beautiful flower pictures outside in the sunshine.  We observed them closely and demonstrated our learning in detailed drawings.  In French, we have learned how to say our name and age and about our families. Our next topic in Science was light and shadows and we had great fun finding out how shadows change and how things reflect light. Towards the end of the term, we showed resilience and excellent teamwork to make mini greenhouses. We even planted some cress seeds in them! We enjoyed a tiring but exciting hike to Ropner Park to fulfil our Summer term promise and the next day showed off our sporting skills at Sports Day. Well done everyone - you have worked hard this term!

Everyone Different, Everyone Loved
