Year 6 Music
Year 6 have been enjoying their Sing Up music sessions this half term. Today, we learned how to keep a strong, steady beat using cups whilst singing What Shall We Do With A Drunken Sailor.
To Infinity and Beyond!
5HJ had an extremely fun filled hook week creating their own papier mache models of the solar system using tissue paper to colour them. The class also designed, created and launched their own rockets with prizes being given to the longest journey and the most eye catching design! Great effort from all with some almost crossing the playground!
A busy first couple weeks!
It has been a busy start to life for 4TE. Pictured below are some images from when the children were tasked with creating a bridge during Crew Week and as they flexed their architectural minds, they had a brilliant time!
How can we get everyone to the top of the mountain?
Year 6 had an amazing crew week focused on the guiding question: How can we get everyone to the top of the mountain? Take a look at our fantastic artwork including all the qualities that the children think they will need to succeed in Year 6.
Back with a bang
Last week saw 5HJ fully immersed in a whole host of crew building activities from problem solving to bubble art pictures. During our Crew Olympic Games, we saw fantastic team work, communication and most importantly smiles and laughter.
Mayan Mask Madness
This afternoon, Y3 have been channeling their inner Mayan and creating their very own Mayan inspired masks. We looked at why Mayans wore masks and how they were designed before creating our own.
Y3 Plant Trees
Y3 celebrated their amazing learning throughout the spring term by each planting a tree around the perimeter of the school field. We reflected on our guiding question “How can we protect our wonderful world?” and presented our learning to parents. We are very lucky that Murphy’s group donated enough trees that every child could plant their own with their own customised wooden tag.
Thank you so much to everybody that came and celebrated the children’s awesome work with us.
The French Revolution at Campsmount Come Dancing 2024 🪩
On Thursday 21st March, a team of twenty-one dancers took part in the annual Campsmount Come Dancing competition. After four months of weekly practice, their collective efforts and commitment culminated in a captivatingly dramatic performance in front of four judges and a raucous crowd of local parents and carers.
With strong competition from other local junior teams in Askern Spa, Barnburgh and Kirk Smeaton, The Norton Junior School dance team captured their audience with a energetic and emotive performance, based on the French Revolution, with accompanying music from Les Miserables. Just when staff and parents could not have been more proud, the team secured a perfect score of 40/40 and came first place in the competition. Spectacular effort! 🪩
Scientific Discoveries!
Yesterday, Year 4 had the fantastic opportunity to venture up to Campsmount to take part in an afternoon of scentific discovery! We made sandtimers, pendulums and exploded some balloons with oranges! The children had a brilliant time!
