Nightingales Stone Age Day!

Nightingales went back to the Stone Age on Friday! We had our own archaeologist log book and learnt how to research the past. We learnt about Stone Age burials and how they changed over time, the clothing they used, and the fact that the 'modern day' T-shirt is actually a 300,000 year old invention! We dug for our own artifacts and analysed them, created our own Stone Age art, understood how Stone Agers radically changed the British landscape and learnt about Stone Age food - they were actually very healthy and always had their 5 a day!

Coffee & Carols

Our children enjoyed sharing their singing and musical talents this morning with a concert to members of the local elderly community, grandparents and other guests. Possibly a few cakes may have been shared too...?

It's going.... to be replaced!

Over the next few days, we're having the 'woodchip' play area replaced with brand new equipment sponsored by the Lottery Fund and our own PTA! Hopefully, the new work will be completed by the end of the week - watch this space!

Year 6 Science

As part of their topic on 'Light', Year 6 have been learning about reflection and refraction. They have been experimenting with these and finding out what happens to a light beam when it passes through a glass prism. They then used their understanding of refraction explain how rainbows are formed.

Year 3 Music Concert

It was fantastic to listen to the progress Year 3 have made with their music learning. The children really listened well to one another and concentrated hard on their piece. Well done Nightingales - truly learning to be the best they can!!
