A step into the wild!

As we begin our spring expedition, the children have been transported into the depths of the Amazon rainforest as they start to explore our guiding question: ‘Why should we help our planet survive?‘ During hook week, the pupils were first immersed in the wonder of the Amazon, from the rainforest layers to the biodiversity of the species that reside there. To celebrate this, our class designed and created an incredible door display, complete with indigenous species from the rainforest canopy. As the week has progressed, the children have gradually been introduced to the issue of deforestation and have produced some thought-provoking news reports to highlight different perspectives on the subject.

🌎 Why should we help our planet survive? – Hook Week

Thrown into the vast and dense Amazon Rainforest, 6CC have answered the call of planet Earth’s SOS to learn about the importance of this natural beauty and the to raise awareness of its vital role in regulating our world’s climate.

This week, years 5 & 6 have been introduced to several of the endangered species inhabiting ‘the lungs of the world’ and where they belong in this complex eco system. 6CC have produced wonderful piece of split artwork through teamwork and determination, as well as creating their own plea to stop deforestation via a group made news report. 📽️

Why should we help our planet survive?

5EG returned after the Christmas holidays with their amazing enthusiasm and threw themselves into our new expedition. This term we are looking at how we can help save our planet and why it needs saving.

This week we have been focusing on what animals live in the Amazon rainforest, doing our own research, ready to create some interesting artwork in the coming days.

Why should we help our planet survive?

The children have had a super start to 2022 and have thrown themselves into our new expedition: Why should we help our planet survive? This expedition will focus on the Amazon Rainforest and the animals and people that live there. We will discover how important it is to protect the rainforest linked to climate change and global warming. During hook week, the pupils learnt about deforestation through writing their own news reports and created some amazing group artwork of rainforest animals using mixed media.

Back to school with a bang!

What a great start to the new year we have had! It has been so lovely to welcome our children back into school and hear all your Christmas adventures.

Immersion week has seen some truly wonderful art projects happening for our exciting new expedition – What a Wonderful World!

What a great way to end the term, full of festive fun! An interactive pantomime, Christmas quiz, dinner, and Christmas jumpers! One more day and we’ll have a Christmas party to end the week! Merry Christmas everyone!

Christmas Quiz Madness!

It was final week before Christmas and all were relaxed, quietly reading their reading book. Then, Mr Cicero thought it best to introduce his big Christmas Quiz…

The tranquility was shattered. Friendships fractured (momentarily). Christmas chaos had well and truly begun!

Safe to say, 6CC fully enjoyed the start to their week! 👏🏻👍🏼😂
