Neil Bratchpeice, Sarah-Jayne Judge and Alba Abad Fernandez came into school this afternoon to run a comic book session. Neil and Sarah-Jayne explained some of the features of developing a character and the children gave Neil their ideas for our very own class character. It was amazing to see what Neil created for us. We also had a chance to draw a cartoon of our own, which we will finish next week.








The P6s had another great Bikeability session today. They are getting really good at all the manoeuvres.












This morning we had a really exciting workshop with Emma Chittick. She taught us about renewable energy and then we had to make a LEGO wind turbine. At the end of the lesson we tested all the turbines to see which produced the most energy. Kathryn and Isla WON!!!
Everyone was really engaged and enjoying the problem solving today. Lovely to see the effort going into solving all the different puzzles. We’ll done P6/7!










Today we all finished our cards for our new penpals at Jacqueline de Romilly school in Cannes, France.
They will be really pleased when they receive them 😃


This afternoon while the P6s were doing Bikeability, the P7s did a fantastic job of cleaning out the pond. It had become really overgrown. Now there is lots of room again for the frogs and next year’s frogspawn 🐸
Ethan threw himself in to the task “It was really fun, especially going in.”
Anders said “ I really enjoyed it, we cleared out half of the pond.”
Hannah said “It was fun and it was really messy.”
Fiona said “It was fun because I didn’t get wet!”
Lena liked it because she got a wet bum!
Roma liked it because it was stinky.
Esther thought that it was fun to clear it out but it was stinky though!
Isla thought it was fun to make a huge pile of the vegetation from the pond.
Elijah thought the weeds were quite tasty…not really!!!
This week we have been learning more about how our climate is being affected by the increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We carried out an investigation to see how this affects temperature.
We had a really interesting time this week finding out about Nepal and writing answers to their questions for our video call. It was great to meet the children from Mount View school, Balkot, Nepal.
All the P6s have been enjoying their Bikeability sessions this term. They are halfway through their training and loving it.
