Anti bullying

Today we have been learning all about our words. We emptied the tooth paste tube of toothpaste. We imagined these were all the words we said in a day. We then had to use only a cotton bud to put the 'words' back. It was really hard and showed us that once we have said something we can not take it back.

Local area

Today year 1 were lucky enough to go on the local area walk, we walked out of the school and explored the surrounding environment. We found that even in our small area there is lots of different things.  We found houses: for living, offices and factories: for work, the river: for the wildlife.  We were even lucky enough to see buses, trains and aeroplanes to show how great our city is for transport and links to other places both in our country and further beyond.
We were very lucky with the weather and only got a little bit wet.

Magic Maths

 Year 3 have been working hard this week on multiplication and division. Today they designed a game to test their knowledge of the 2,5 and 10 times table.

WOW update!

An update on how our 'Walk Once a Week' initiative is going...

Before the launch of the scheme,  45% of children were walking to school, with 34% coming by car.

During the month of October, 53% of children walked to school, with only 8% coming by car  -WOW!!!

A special well done to Rooks class who have the most children walking to school weekly, and to Swifts class who only have 3% coming by car.

Keep up the excellent work - 8 more badges to collect!! Remember - walk, scoot, cycle or park and stride once a week to be in with a chance of getting your badge at the end of the month!

The Digestive system

Over the last couple weeks Year 4 have been learning all about the digestive system.

This week we all had a go at making our very own digestive system where we put food in one end, replicated the process of digestion and then watched the waste products come out the other end, just like they would do in our bodies. Although some of us were a little squeamish about it, the task helped us remember all the different parts of the digestive system and the processes that happen there.
