Year 1 finished their 'Funny Bones' topic by hosting an "All About Me Gallery" for Year R and then their parents. They worked hard to change the classroom into a gallery and set out their class work for everybody to see. They also laid out their homework projects which was a collection of their favourite items as well as lots of great writing about things they have done. We enjoyed sharing their work, well done Year 1 for your fantastic homework projects!

Florence: The Soldiers' Friend
Year 2 enjoyed retelling the story of Florence's Life. They loved making all the props and acting as the different characters. It was almost as good as a West End production! Well done Year 2.

Victorian Day!
Year 5 had lots of fun yesterday dressing up as Victorians to re-enact a Victorian day at school! We studied subjects such as arithmetic, dictation, reading, handwriting, drill and even learnt the countries of the British Empire in geography!
At the end of the day, we performed the dance we had been working on this half term to some of our parents. The dance was inspired by the Victorian factory machines of the industrial revolution. We finished our performance by reading out some sentences about what we had enjoyed most during our Victorian day! Strangely, several children thought that wearing the dunce hat was the best part of their day!
We would like to say a big thank you to everyone who made this day a success! The children's costumes were absolutely fabulous!

Year 3 rock!


To conclude their dance unit in PE this term, Year 3 performed their Rock 'n Roll dance to a couple of other classes. Children began their dance together then moved into pairs to perform their own dances which they ended in a pose - very effective. They concluded with the learnt rock and roll steps again. The audience were very impressed and it certainly looked like Year 3 enjoyed themselves. What stars!

Year 3s Dragon Show
Year 3s Dragon Show was enjoyed by parents and the school in the hall. We began with a dragon themed dance wearing the masks we'd made. Different groups then entertained the audience when they performed dragon poems - well done everyone. A range of our fabulous moving dragons was shown to the audience. Some dragons breathed fire, some had opening mouths and some dragons had flapping wings! The children had worked hard to make their pneumatics work.
At the end of the show, parents had a chance to look at
