Reception - Mini Chef

Last week, Cherry Tree made a delicious vegetable pasta dish for their Mini Chef with Miss Vincent! They worked very hard and learnt to safely slice and chop the vegetables before helping Miss Vincent put it all together. We hope you enjoyed it for dinner as much as we enjoyed making it! 




















Watercolour Club

The children of upper KS2 have had two sessions of their Watercolour Club so far this term. They learned the four basic watercolour painting techniques, and also, how to create volume using complementary colours for shadows and lights instead of black ink. We will be using our talents to create landscapes next!

















Mastering vocabulary in Spanish

Year 3 children have worked very hard all term to learn no less than 15 different body parts in Spanish. They have been engaged throughout the topic and have worked very hard to get some tricky pronunciation correct by practicing speaking and listening skills a lot.






Dinosaurs in Nursery

This week we have been learning all about dinosaurs! We have been learning about the most popular dinosaur - The Tyrannosaurus-Rex, who has sharp teeth, a long tail and tiny arms. We have been doing lots of dinosaur related activities!

Year 3 - Practical Science

To learn the parts of a flowering plant, this week we have dissected tulips in our practical science lessons. 

We worked as groups to dissect the tulip and take a close look at its reproductive parts - the anther, stamen, stigma and ovule. We learnt that in these parts the pollen is produced and stored. 

We also discovered that the petals are bright and beautiful to attract insects and animals!
