Class 3 have finished their design technology project this term and produced some super cards that light up!
Could they have improved them? They’ll be working on their evaluations tomorrow.

There was great excitement in class 2 today as two butterflies emerged from chrysalis. At first their wings were all crumpled but gradually the children saw the wings expand and flapped  as they dried out.

We are just waiting to see the final butterfly emerge.

Congratulations to our children who were in the Golden Book, this week. Our class 1 child was chosen for his listening on the carpet. Our class 2 child showed excellent concentration and worked hard. Our class 3 child has been trying hard, in class, as well as trying to teach Miss White a new language! Our child, from class 4, was chosen for the effort she put into this week’s dance lesson and taking on the role of a leader in her group.

Our star of the week, this week, was chosen for her excellent learning attitude and her enthusiasm for the harvest festival.

KS2 enjoyed a visit to The Newark Civil War Museum today. They travelled by train which, for some children, was their first ride on a train. Once at the museum, they watched a short film, looked at some of the exhibits, took part in a workshop where they acted the part of people who actually lived in Newark, and learned what life was like during the civil war. After lunch, they learned about Anglo Saxon burials found in Newark.

The children this morning gave thanks to God for the food we have to eat. They also performed the story of the enormous turnip as well as singing songs and playing a variety of instruments.

Thank you to everyone who contributed to our harvest celebration this morning, enabling us to have a wonderful display of produce. The tins and packets will go to the Grantham Foodbank to support local people in need. The fresh produce and flowers were distributed to older members of our community by the children in class 4.
