Science Week Challenge

17th March 2023Helen Jenkins

 The LKS2 theme for science week this year was connections so what could be more fun than building towers out of sweets. The children were challenged to construct the tallest free standing tower using only 2 pieces of equipment – midget gems and cocktail sticks. Check the wonderful designs by our year 3 children and parents. Huge thank you to all those who came to support their children.

Well done to these children with a tower measuring 72cm!

These two towers were chosen for the creative designs!

This week is science week and so we began the week with some experiments. The children made paper towers and explored how to make an effective catapult, which obviously had to be tested!

Due to their amazing attendance record 6EG were lucky enough to win a baking afternoon! This afternoon we did exactly that, which timed well with the end of test week. The class decided to make a version of rocky Road, using biscuits, popcorn and raisins.

Football Fusion Cup @ GOALS

9th March 2023Charlie Cicero

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!

7th March 2023Charlie Cicero

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!
