Happy World Book Day 2023! What an amazing day we’ve had moving up to Year 5 to spend the morning with Mr Carr doing some incredibly fun art based on the book ”Aliens Loves Underpants”.

Football Fusion Cup @ GOALS
The year six girls had an enjoyable afternoon competing against other UKS2 teams in Doncaster on the 8th March. In every game, the girls demonstrated teamwork, skill and physicality, especially in the face of larger, more assertive opponents. The winter weather added another, more chilly dimension to the competition and the team now look forward to possible competitions in the summer in warmer conditions. Well played, girls! ⚽
World Book Day!
It was lovely to celebrate World Book Day this year with many of the school population dressing up as one of their favourite book characters. Year 4 were transferred to 6CC and enjoyed the morning solving riddles and creating their own enchanted story maps with legends for points of interest. There was even enough time for a WBD Kahoot Quiz!
World Book Day 2023
Happy World Book Day 2023! We have had a super exciting day with 3LG taking a trip to Y5 and Miss Tortora, doing some incredibly fun role play based on the book ”The Iron Giant”.
Year 4 Dodgeball Drama!
A team of year 4 dodgeballers took on four local teams today at Campsmount Academy; whilst results may not have gone their way with many close calls, the determined set of year 4s dipped, ducked, dived and dodged in every match and played valiantly until the end. Thank your to Leger Sport for organising the competition. Great work, team!
Chance to Dance with Miss Wendy
Last week y3 started the second part of the 2022/23 Chance to Dance programme with weekly workshops with Chance to Dance associate artist and local dance teacher Miss Wendy. This week the children have been learning all about dynamics during dance and perfecting their ballet technique.
We think the children look ace doing their ballet and can’t wait to see the dance come together over the next weeks!!
Coding with Scratch
This half term, year 3 have began our final case study for our expedition – The Power of Life. Children have started to explore coding through Scratch which is the largest coding community which enables children to create digital stories, games and animations. The children in 3HJ already know far more than I do already! Check out their incredible designs!
‼️World Book Day Reminder‼️
We are celebrating World Book Day on FRIDAY 3RD MARCH not tomorrow.
If children would like to dress up on FRIDAY – they are very welcome to do so. However, we would like to stress there is no obligation for anyone to go out and spend money on costumes. If children choose not to dress up they are welcome to come in their own clothes or pyjamas ready for a ‘bedtime’ story!
We are looking forward to celebrating all things book related together.

How much room for Volume?
Nearing the conclusion of our learning about perimeter, area and volume , 6CC began looking at the space occupied by three dimensional shapes today. By manipulating cubes, they investigated how to find the volume of cubes with varying height before exploring a variety of random 3D shapes and finding their volumes.
