On Friday our Early Years children had great fun making their own tractor to help Farmer Duck with all his work. On Monday the other children used their imagination to embark on all kinds of adventures.
Friday Club Make Dough
Today in Friday club, the children enjoyed making their own dough before shaping it into a design of their choice. It must have tasted good, as they were already tucking into it as they went home.
School Visit to St Wulfram’s
This morning the children were fascinated to see stunning art work Gaia by renowned artist Luke Jerram hanging in St Wulfram’s Church. As well as developing their geographical knowledge of the Earth, the children also developed their understanding of how important it is that we care for God’s wonderful world. The children also enjoyed exploring the church and were quick to identify the Bible stories depicted in the stained glass windows.
Class 4 Life as an Evacuee
Today Class 4 welcomed some evacuees for the day. They enjoyed baking a wartime cake, writing letters home, reading Goodnight Mr Tom and making model aeroplanes. Of course, some of the time was also spent in the air raid shelter as the siren went off frequently throughout the day. Thank you to all the children and parents who put in so much effort with costumes, wartime lunches and fantastic Brain Builder homework – Anderson shelters.
Class 3 Investigate Magnets
In Science today, Class 3 enjoyed investigating which objects were attracted to a bar magnet. They were surprised at some of their findings. They discovered that many things made from metal were magnetic, but not all.

Class 4 Trace Fossils
Today Class 4 were learning about trace fossils (prints left by extinct animals in swamp land and over many years have turned to stone). They made creatures changing only one thing to test whether they would sink in our wallpaper paste swamp. Some changed foot size, some by weight and others leg length.
