Year 1 - Trip to the Science Center
Year 1 could hardly contain their excitement on the walk to the Science Centre!
Once there, the science centre staff gave us a warm welcome and then split us into two groups. The first group were introduced to the gallery floor where they were able to explore the many 'hand on' exhibits, helping them learn more about science. They enthusiastically learnt how to bend light, build bridges and create effective flying designs to name just a few of the fun exhibits!
The second group were busy having a dinosaur workshop, learning how to think scientifically about how dinosaurs may have looked using clues found in fossils! Then they played `guess which dinosaur’ with their partners, honing their listening, talking and thinking skills and finally they designed their very own dinosaur. The groups then swapped over so Year One were able to double the fun!
It is definitely worth a visit with your family.
Nursery - Library Visit
The older Nursery children enjoyed a super adventure when they walked to Arbury Court Library, to explore the wonderful books there. We were able to choose books, learn about how anyone can become a member to borrow books for free and we also listened to one of our favourites: Shark in the Park.
Music - Sing Up Day!
The whole school joined in with learning the national Sing Up Day song ‘We Get Up Again’, by Emily Barden. We performed this powerful anthem on the day itself, whilst other schools did the same all over the world. Our wonderful singing champions led the song and performed the solo sections – great role models.
Choir & Recorder Club Performance
Well done to choir and recorder club who once again entertained an audience of 80+ with fabulous playing and singing. Recorder club has been learning to play two types of recorder (descant and treble) this term and played some challenging duets. Choir sang lots of classics, which they’ve been preparing for their trip to Buchan House Care Home. This included ‘The Cat Came Back’, which some of our talented pupils composed their own verses to perform.
KS2 Choir
KS2 choir had another lovely visit to Buchan House Care Home to bring some Spring cheer. They did incredibly well to learn lots of lyrics to songs for the residents to sing along to and behaved brilliantly. Thank you to Buchan House for preparing a fabulous Easter egg hunt for us too.
