The Premises Personnel team turn detective!

The Premise Personnel Team spent some time on Monday afternoon checking the lost property for names in the hope of reuniting some items with their owners.

We found names in a few items which made a good start, and even found a Parisian beret that had been lost by a teacher- can you guess which teacher it belongs to?!

The Premises Personnel Team would like to remind you of the following:

Please label all uniform items and anything you are bringing into school with a name, ideally first and second name or even just first name and class.

Try not to leave items such as coats and water bottles on the playground; if you do, they will go into the Daily Trug which you can check through later in the day - it's kept outside by the Gazebo. At the end of the day anything left will then go into the official Lost Property basket.

Let's work together to keep our playground and school premises tody and organised!

 

Having fun investigating in school - Do the children with the longest legs jump the furthest?

Today we worked together to carry out an investigation in our class bubble.

Our investigation question was ‘Do the children with the longest legs jump the furthest?’

We had to make a prediction first to explain what we thought would happen. Then we followed the method carefully to make sure it was a fair test. 

Method:

1. Measure how long each child’s legs are and record. 

2. Each child must then stand behind the line and jump as far as you can!

3. Measure how far each child could jump using a measuring tape. 

4. Record how far in a table for each child. 

To make it fair we ensured we started in the same place measured from the same spot and jumped in the same way.

It was great fun. What do you think we found out?
