Year R visited Hawthorns Wildlife Centre

On Friday Year R visited Hawthorns at Southampton Common.

We took part in a variety of activities including taking on the role of squirrels and hiding 'nuts', acting as birds looking for different coloured caterpillars, mini-beast hunting, finding brass rubbings and using the activity rooms.

We had a fantastic time. Year R were very well behaved. Well done Year R. Thank you to those parents who came and helped us.

Friday clubs get active!

Last Friday saw this terms clubs get active. Children were given the options of joining clubs that were all going to be doing something active in the hall and grounds, on the field and playground. That's 200 children all doing something energetic at the same time!

Year 6 orienteering trip

Year 6 enjoyed a fantastic day out at Itchen Valley Country Park. Everyone completed the 2.1km orienteeting course around the park & spent the rest day chilling out as a reward for all their hard work during SATs!

Year 5 Film Narratives

This half term we have been studying film in literacy. We have focused on the film clip 'The Piano'. As the finale of our project we created our own film narratives, which we then added to 'The Piano' in Windows Movie Maker. We had lots of fun doing this, and evaluated our end results whilst eating popcorn! Perhaps you would like to evaluate some of our narratives too?

Space boxes

Last week, year 5 became creative, making moving space boxes using cam mechanisms. In the video you can see an explanation of how the space boxes were made, and how they work.
