Authors, illustrators and now educators!

This half term Year 6 have created a wonderful piece of writing aimed at Year 4 children.

They were tasked with producing an informative, fun, educational and engaging information text about one of the planets in our solar system and WOW, did they rise to the challenge! The work produced was exceptional and a real credit to their hard work and pride.

Following this, the Year 4s were lucky enough to get to not only see these exceptional pieces of work, but our Year 6s sat with them, enthusiastically read them, talked through the process and expertly answered the brilliant questions posed by our Year 4s.

Both year groups were an absolute credit and it was a genuine pleasure to watch. Great work to all involved!

Year 4 Crew Week Teamwork!

This week, Year 4 celebrated the First Week Back through undertaking the challenge of answering the Crew Guiding Question of, ‘How can Crew work together to achieve an end goal?’. To answer this, Year 4 decided that spreading kindness would be our end goal! We would achieve this by baking a range of treats to take home and gift to parents and carers, and to also create a range of ‘Kindness Cards’ to spread to children in our school. Year 4 showed great craftsmanship and quality to create such beautiful creations and bring smiles to the faces of many! Well done Year 4 on a lovely start to the year!

Multiplying our Maths Skills!

Recently, 3TE have been actively traversing around the classroom to solve a range of mathematical problems. Our mathematical movement has engaged our minds and worked our brains and ensured our mathematical abilities continue to expand, multiply, enlarge… and however many more mathematical synonyms for increasing you can think of!

Divide and Conquer!

This week, 3TE have been developing their division skills with a variety of challenges, including this particular activity where the children were traversing around the room solving a variety of problems using a newly discovered method. The children have since expanded this knowledge even further with addtional methods and even harder problems. Keep up making those division discoveries!

Magnificent Mathematical Treasure Hunt!

This week, Year 3 were given a secret mission… Treasure had been stolen and hidden somewhere in school! The Year 3 children were tasked to use their multiplication skills in order to solve a range of questions, crack a code and figure out where the treasure was hidden! These super sleuths were courageous, resilient and showed great endevour to find the treasure. Well done all of your delightful detectives!
