In our first week at NJS, 3HJ have made ’Time Capsules’ reflecting on their summer break and setting goals for the new school year. Each time capsule contains photos, examples of some of the children’s favourite things, pledges for the forthcoming year and pieces of awesome art work. These time capsules will be sealed and ‘buried’ till July where we will be able to reflect on our journey through year 3!
What an amazing morning we had completing our very first NJS sports day. I couldn’t be prouder of how all the year 3 children showed team spirt and sportsmanship whether they came first in their race or not! Super effort and determination on such a hot day! We are all waiting with baited breath to discover which class won!
How amazing are our completed pop art pictures in the style of Andy Warhol. We all think they are extremely striking, we hope you agree!! Awesome effort as always from our fabulous year 3 team!
This week, year 3 have been studying pop art by inspirational artist Andy Warhol. We completed a gallery walk, making praises and wonders about some of his most iconic pieces. As you can see, we also had a go at creating our very own pop art pictures using sweets and sugar as inspiration. Check out the vibrant colours and the attention to detail. Great job 3HJ!
Year 3 are taking their very first NJS sports day extremely seriously and what fun we’ve had practicing a range of track and field events this week from sprinting to hurdles and throwing. Some phenomenally talented children have come to light but what really stood out more, was the way the children supported and congratulated each other! We really can’t wait until we can compete in front of our family members!
Last week, 3HJ enjoyed spending the afternoon testing a range of different kind of sweets as part of our market research to decide which sweets were popular and which weren’t a hit. Haribo Tangfastics seems to get the seal of approval based on qualities such as appearance, taste and texture. Surprisingly, my favourite – jelly babies – came out quite low!
The sun is shining so what better choice of activity for flexible Friday than playing on the jungle trail after working so hard this past week! 3HJ have decided to have a ‘show and tell’ session next week too!
This week, year 5 were lucky enough to receive a visit from an expert who spoke knowledgeably about the circulatory system and taught the children the importance of keeping their hearts healthy through a balanced diet, exercise and plenty of sleep! The pupils also had the opportunity to use a stethoscope for some hands on learning! What a treat!
A massive well done to everybody that took part in the Y3 Chance to Dance Easter School. The performance you put on was absolutely amazing.
We are so happy and excited to announce that the winners have been selected and will be starting their tuition at Hazelbiz Performers Academy in September. Well done girls, we can’t wait to see how you get on as your dance journey continues.
