Year 6 French Fashion project gets underway

This week Year 6  have started working on their annual Fashion Show; we spent our lesson time this week planning our outfits and translating all the new ambitious vocabulary we will need into French using our French bilingual dictionaries and online dictionary resources. Our next step in the project will be using our new language and manipulating vocabulary Mrs Seaton has previously taught us to build our own description sentences.

Mrs Seaton was so stunned with Elm's efforts she forgot to take any photos of them in action!

Junior Travel Ambassadors Team present..... Be Bright Be Seen 2022

 At their last meeting members of the JTA from across both sites and all year groups planned their annual Be Bright Be Seen assembly, which they presented to their peers this week as the final week of term draws Winter closer. They also presented the Be Bright Be Seen poem and got their peers chanting it loud and clear for all to hear!

Here are a selection of the slides they presented:

Dance with Year 1.

This week, Year 1 really enjoyed retelling the story of Abe and Alba through dance. We discussed at the beginning of the week how we can tell a story in different ways. After watching storytelling through dance, we thought about how we could move when something sad happens or when something exciting happens. As a year group, we put sequences of movements together to retell different parts of the story. We then wrote about the things we enjoyed the most. 

Year 5 Art - Dragon Eyes

 Year 5 have made clay dragon eyes inspired by Beowulf, our book this term.

Children practised using the score and slip technique to join pieces of clay together and enjoyed decorating their eyes using paint and glitter.

We hope you like looking at them!

Ochre House has a brave, fierce and loyal new member......

The Ochre House captains met our new friend this week. They've promised to show all the values, they've agreed to take part in the Fun Run, they'll make appearances at the school fairs and have pledged that they will do all they can to make Ochre House a roaring success this year and get some Yellow ribbons on display!

However as yet our new friend doesn't have a name! So send in your suggestions for a name for our new Lion mascot and we will vote for their name together in our next house assembly.

Year 5 Love Following Instructions!

Over the last couple of weeks in English, Year 5 have been writing instructions. Before they started writing their own, we thought we should see if they could follow instructions - so we set them off on a scavenger hunt!

Working in groups, the children had to read their instructions carefully so they knew how to complete a series of different challenges. We managed to incorporate many different subjects in our English lesson that day and enjoyed some sunshine in the Forest School.
