5A visited Shorne Country Park as part of the "Go with The Flow" IPC unit. The children learnt about the water cycle. They completed four different activities, which included investigating the amount of rainfall in an area, identifying which types of surfaces allow run off to take place, measuring the depth of water in a pond and completing questions about the water cycle.
This week, Year 4 spent the day exploring what life was like as an Ancient Egyptian. They participated in a range of activities including making bookmarks on papyrus paper, playing Senet, an Ancient Egyptian board game and carving our own Shabtis. They also dressed up as Ancient Egyptians and reenacted the story of the Ancient Egyptian Gods; Horus, Osiris, Set and Isis. In the afternoon they explored some Ancient Egyptian artefacts and had a go at engraving our names in hieroglyphics.
The whole school had a 2 minutes silence today, to show respect and gratitude to the armed forces, past and present, who have lost their lives fighting for their country.
Year 2 today visited the war memorial. The children have been learning about their local history and painted poppies on pebbles, which they laid down by the statue, in honour of all those who served in the war.

The children had their entry point for ‘Time Travellers’. Children enjoyed dressing up as people of the past. The children took part in a catwalk where the teacher read three facts about them and the children had to guess who they were. At the end, it was then unveiled who each child was dressed up as. Then the children enjoyed listening to music from different famous people from the past and having a little dance.
