Year 4 - Cricket

Practising Bowling in PE!

This term in PE, Year 4 have been learning various cricket skills. During our ‘bowling learning’, We started by practising our run-up and aiming at the stumps. Everyone focused on using a straight arm and following through to make the ball travel in the right direction. We also worked in pairs to take turns bowling and batting, cheering each other on and giving tips for improvement. It was great to see everyone getting more confident and accurate with their bowling. We can’t wait to use our new skills in a real cricket matches next term!

Year 1 Brilliant Builders!

Year 1 enjoyed their topic day on our first dayback. Children were read our new book 'The Three Little Pigs'. They then visited different classrooms to make houses from different materials. They  are all now master builders.

Year 4 visit the London Canal Musuem

 

We took a trip to the London Canal Museum in King’s Cross. Our trip started with a walking tour along the Regent’s Canal, where we stopped to consider areas of danger and safety, including its uses both past and present. The canals played a huge role in industry by transporting grain and coal around the city to fuel the factories and warehouses in this area.

 

At the museum, we took part in a ‘Cargoes Workshop’, where we learnt how poor the roads used to be and why canals were built. Following this, we explored objects that were transported by the canals throughout London using ‘mystery bags’ and our senses. Part of the workshop focussed on recapping the differences with natural vs man-made water and we reviewed the features of rivers that we have learnt back at school. 

Eco Squad 2025

The Eco Squad is a team of children who care about our planet and want to help make our school a greener, cleaner place!

We looked at ways that we can work together to look after the environment, reduce waste and to remind everyone how important it is to care for nature.

What We Do:

Remind classes to recycle and save energy.

Check that taps and lights are turned off when not needed.

Help keep our playground and garden tidy and full of wildlife.

Year 5 Art Sculptures

 In Art this term, we tried to recreate the dragon's eye from the story of Beowulf. We had to plan our designs in our sketch books before using the clay to make the sculpture. After it had dried, we then painted on our designs.
