Art
Just wow! Yesterday, the children created a tiger in the style of Henri Rousseau. The fine details are just incredible! Please take the time to appreciate the effort that went into this piece of art.
Geography
Yesterday in geography, the children were introduced to their new topic: The Amazon Rainforest. The children learnt all about the animals that live in the Amazon. They also learnt about the layers of the Amazon Rainforest too.
Thank you

Smell
Today in science, the children were exploring their sense of smell. They learnt all about the nostrils and nose hairs.
Christmas Carol Service
Yesterday, we all attended our annual Christmas Carol Service. We were entertained by a variety of musicians, a poem from our poet laureate and a talk led by Reverend Tasha. Our Year 6's read from The Bible and had written their own prayers to read. This was topped off by some festive carols. Thank you to both Father Simon and Reverend Tasha for hosting us! A special thank you to our photographer!
Recounts
Last week in writing, the children wrote their own recounts based upon a game that we played at break time. The children had to remember certain key words that came at the start of each new sentence. I wonder if you can spot these key words.
Guided Reading
The children are now starting to become more independent with their reading. They are now turn taking and reading pages to their partner.
Science
Today in science, the children were exploring their sense of taste. The children wrote down the flavour of the food.
Maths- Sorting 2D shapes
Today in maths, the children were sorting 2D shapes. We discussed the properties of each shape (sides and vertices) which helped the children recognise the name of the shape.
