We have had a lovely week, which has ended on a sunny note as we head into the holiday. This week, we began rehearsals for our Year 6 production, which the children are very excited about. We have discussed roles, and each child has been given a script to begin learning their lines. We appreciate your support with helping the children practise these at home. In Geography, the children were intrigued to learn about Chernobyl and used maps to research the impact of this event.

What a week it has been in Year 6 — we have completed our SATs! We could not be prouder of all the children involved.

On Friday, we were delighted to welcome Julia Buckley, who visited to congratulate the child

What lovely weather we have had this week! We’ve made the most of the sunshine by taking our booster sessions outdoors, which the children have thoroughly enjoyed. One highlight was our exciting ‘escape room’ challenge, where pupils worked brilliantly in groups to solve a series of clues in order to “escape.” It was fantastic to see such teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving skills on display—well done, Willow Class! In Science, we have been exploring how animals adapt to

We have had a very busy week in Willow Class completing our mock SATs. The children have shown fantastic effort and determination, and we are incredibly proud of the individual progress each child has made. Their positive attitudes and resilience have really stood out. I have sent the children’s papers home for you to look through together; we have also reviewed them in class and used them as part of our revision this week. In Art, we have been developing our sketching skills

It has been wonderful to welcome the children back after the Easter break. They have returned ready and refreshed for a busy but exciting term ahead. This week in maths, we have been focusing on our arithmetic skills, and the children have shown a great ability to work quickly and carefully when answering questions. In reading, we have been developing our inference skills, explaining how and why we know something by using evidence from the text to support our answers. In P.E,

Spring 1 has been brilliant, and it has been wonderful to see so much progress from the Year 6 children. In Writing, we have been creating diary entries inspired by the clip La Luna . The children demonstrated a strong understanding of the task and used a range of prepositional openers to clearly paint vivid pictures in the reader’s mind. In Maths, we have completed our Geometry unit, where the children showed great understanding when finding angles in a range of shapes. In G

Dear Parents and Guardians, I hope you are well. I wanted to let you know that this Friday, as part of our science curriculum, I will be carrying out a teacher-led demonstration involving the dissection of a beef heart. This demonstration will help students better understand the structure and function of the heart as part of their learning about the circulatory system. The children will observe the process, but they will not be carrying out any dissection themselves. The sess

We have had a great week in Willow, and the weather is definitely making a difference to our learning and energy levels!

In Maths, we have been completing our unit on Statistics. Pupils have been interpreting and drawing a range of graphs, including line graphs, bar graphs an

On Friday 20th March pupils are welcome to come into school wearing something red for Comic Relief. If pupils do not have anything red, they are welcome to just wear non uniform, if they wish.

This week has been a fantastic one in Year 6, and the sunshine has certainly helped to keep spirits high! In Writing, we responded to a (very serious!) letter from Mr Hortons about shortening playtimes. The children wrote thoughtful and persuasive replies, showing an excellent understanding of the key features needed to convince a reader. There were some very strong arguments for keeping our well-earned break times! In Maths, we have been exploring area and perimeter. This we

We are still having reports that some children in Y5 and Y6 are inappropriately using social media apps, with access to inappropriate language. Some of the language and references children are sending to one another are of a sexual content. We have growing safeguarding concerns with the lack of supervision that some children are having whilst on devices. Also, that some children (due to their advanced ability to use technology) are hiding certain messages, apps or photos from
