Due to the snow closure on the last day of term, the Fiddlesticks group did not get to play at our Christmas Service. We were lucky enough to enjoy a performance from them at our first whole school assembly of the new year.
Term 3 Curriculum Information

Art Lesson
In art P6 have been painting.
We have been learning how to mix various tints and shades of blue to create these beautiful wintery pictures. Once the sky was complete we painted our snowman, to which added lots of lovely details. The final step was learning how to add shadows to help make it look three dimensional.
Excellent work P6
Tchaikovsky – The Nutcracker Suite
As part of our learning journey through the history of music, P6 have learned about a Russian composer called Piotr Illyich Tchaikovsky. Tchaikovsky composed many pieces in his time and one of the most famous pieces is ‘The Nutcracker Suite’ which was written for the ballet in 1892.
The class learned a chair drumming routine to the Russian dance ‘Trepak’ and below is our first go at the routine. They did really well considering the composition’s tempo of ‘allegro’.
Parents join in Maths Week
Parents and carers visited school last Friday afternoon to join in a range of fun numeracy games and activities using our Number Notions packs:
Maths Week
Last week, the whole school celebrated Maths Week.
Chao’s at the North Pole
P6 really enjoyed helping to solve their part of the Chaos at the North Pole STEAM Challenge.
STEAM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Maths. We used skills from all these curricular areas to help Santa’s reindeers fly after the magic elf dust had disappeared. We discussed forces, friction and what makes things more aerodynamic.
Maths at work
We have been learning that maths is everywhere! Indie’s Dad, came in to talk to P6 about he uses maths in his job as a pharmacist. It was interesting to hear how he uses it to work out doses, cost and amounts of medicines.
