Farm Visit on Friday

 

TPAT Basketball Competition

 

The Wrotham Road pupils have continued to show our school spirit, within our excellent Year 5 and 6 children, who attended a TPAT basketball competition yesterday. It came down to the wire for our Wrotham 1 team who were called for the 3rd and 4th place decider match. The children came into the round with such determination, which was followed through with accurate throws and team work, to win a landslide score against the first of Meopham's teams, securing the bronze place trophy for the school. 

Well done!

After a long week of SATs, Year 6 have been enjoying some well- earned down time at Woodlands Park this morning.

 

Year 2 Gravesend Library Visit

On the 10th and 12th May Year 2 visited Gravesend library linking the trip to their “My Town, Then and Now” topic. Looking at how buildings have changed over the years in their local community. They looked at how the old buildings are different from modern ones in their design and in the materials, they are made from? What evidence is there of buildings aging? How do we know if something is old or in an old style? Looking at lots of historic records (e.g. maps, photographs, etc.) of the local area, which might support their research. 

    

Year 6 have worked incredibly hard this week and should be extremely proud of themselves!

 

Year 1 - Kent Life Today

 

Year 4- Land, Sea and Sky

Today, as part of our topic Land, Sea and Sky, Year 4 were learning about the water cycle.  After learning the key stages, we used a sandwich bag, whiteboard markers and coloured water to create our own mini water cycles.  We have left them in the sun to ensure evaporation can occur so we can observe condensation and precipitation in action!

Year 6 SATs Breakfast

 

Year 4- Today at the farm!

 

6M spent their Maths lesson outside enjoying the weather!

Year 3- Shorne Country Park Workshop

Year 3 had a wonderful time at Shorne Country park. We carried out a mini-beast hunt, identified different types of trees, had a lovely picnic and  a fantastic time in the park. We also went on an interesting walk where we managed to see some fishermen catching fish!
