Silly science - by Professors Mugridge & Mayo


Great Science happening at home... this is awesome! I am sure we can get these 'youtubers' a few more watches?

Rooks rock the Top Table!

Rooks class are the first class in the school to earn 15 tokens for the Kind Kevin award. This is for being kind and polite and showing fantastic behaviour at lunchtime. As a reward, we got to sit on the top table, being served by brilliant waiters and waitresses- Mrs Hayward, Mr Adams, Mrs Perry and Mrs Rice. If we get 20 tokens we earn a golden ticket!

William's Robot Homework

We were so impressed with this homework project by William in Rooks class that we had to share it. An awesome effort!


World Book Day in Year R!

We loved World Book Day in Year R! The children all looked fantastic and we very much enjoyed taking it in turns to talk about who we were dressed as. We also made a picture and wrote all about our character.



We also enjoyed exploring the book 'The Gruffalo'. Please take a look at some of our Art work!

Kestrels get caught reading on World Book Day!


Kestrels had a great time last week celebrating World Book Day.  We enjoyed getting to know some of the Greek myths and spent time creating our own story maps to help us verbally retell them.  We also had fun dressing up, taking part in quizzes and sharing our favourite books with Finches class.  Thank you to parents for all the support with costumes!

Swifts LOVE recycling!

Earlier this week the Swift class were visited by the recycling team in Southampton to help them understand more about recycling.  In Science we have been focusing on materials and their uses so this linked in brilliantly! Children took part in a fun activity which helped teach them about the things that can be recycled...it was very interesting!
