Today the children have been learning about China from where to find the country, the culture, the food and they have even tried to write some Chinese characters.  Please ask your children about it and let us know which parts they most enjoyed.

Yesterday KS2 immersed themselves in local history. Initially working collaboratively, they generated historical enquiry questions before heading off to the local museum for an in depth talk and exploration. The afternoon was spent collating their findings, using software to generate graphs from population data and painting historic figures and buildings. They even read stories from past copies of the Grantham Journal dating back to the mid 1800s.

Last term the children designed, made and sold Christmas cards to raise money for some new scooters.
Today they are looking forward to using their new scooters.
Thank you to everyone who bought our cards.

Class 3 and Class 4 enjoyed a local history day learning many facts about Grantham. They went to Grantham Museum as part of their day. During the afternoon both classes enjoyed some follow up tasks including art, graph work on the population of Grantham and creating an information poster.

Can you guess which country the children covered in Countries Club this week?

The children had a super afternoon. After a fantastic feast kindly donated by parents, pupils played a variety of individual and team party games for house points. It was so lovely to see them look after each other.

Class 4 designed and made moving toys using CAMS mechanisms.
