Happy half term
Well done year 6!
This week our Year 6’s have completed a mock SATS weeks to enable them to fully experience life at the top of the school and to allow staff to see how well they have progressed. All the pupils were impeccably behaved and to celebrate their achievements, the children were treated to pizza and a film on Friday afternoon. We are all extremely proud of them.
Year 3 and 4
As part of our Art and DT curriculums, the children have been learning to sew. After practising on a piece of card , they moved onto Binca to develop their running stitches. Some children learnt how to cross stich too! They tie-dyed a piece of fabric and will be using their sewing skills to create a quilt piece.
We also built our own looms and learn to weave, selecting different colours and textures of fabric and wool for effect. We think that they look fabulous!
This week in RE, Year 3 and 4 have been learning about Sacred Places, what it means for something to be 'sacred' and how this may make us or others feel. The children have thought about what they might put in a shrine within a sacred place and why.
We have also performed the play scripts that we had written based the opening scene of “The Tempest”. We needed to learn about how to write a play script, including the use of colons and brackets for stage directions.
