When children are healthy, happy and safe, curiosity is ignited and learning is optimised. In this section, you will find out what children in school and nursery have been learning this week.
The results of the scarecrow competition are in. I hope you managed to see lots of the fabulous creations. We are pleased to announce that Shrek and The Fairy Tale Forest came first in the youth category.
We are so proud of all of the children (and their families) for the amazing variety of scarecrows that have been produced for the ‘Fairy Tale Forest’. Thank you to one and all.

Year 1 have been learning about maps in Geography. We learnt about the points of a compass and created our own maps of school with compasses to help us find our way to the buried treasure! We found it in forest school!
Year 4 Maths and Computing
Year 6 have been working super hard this week on their place value! 
They worked in pairs to explore different resources in order to solve a problem. We then shared our answers and strategies as a class.
Year 1 have had a creative week! In R.E. we have been learning about Islam and started with the Islamic creation of nature story. We found some treasures from nature which we think are special to draw. In Art we are learning about colour theory and have been busy mixing primary colours to make secondary!
What a lovely week we have had! The sun has been shining and the children have been shining too. It has been lovely to hear about all the fabulous things that they have been doing over the holidays.
On Tuesday, Mrs Beard was looking for examples of the children cooperating and was so impressed with the variety of examples she found. Lots of examples were shared in assembly but here are a few for you to look at.
Year 5 had a fabulous Greek themed day this week. We enjoyed a range of cooking and arts and crafts activities. 
The Reception class enjoyed a lovely sunny afternoon at the mini forest school site today.
Year 1 have been doing D&T this week and we have been learning how to chop, slice and grate food in order to make a tasty sandwich for Paddington Bear! 
Year 2 have been busy making moving pictures for the new Year1 class. We've learned lots about levers and linkages, sliders, pivots and other mechanisms.
Yesterday, Year 4 had a visitor. Jen, from Jackfield Tile Museum, helped the children bring their Islamic art designs to life, by creating them on tiles. We can't wait to see how wonderful the colours shine once they have been in the kiln.
Y2 have been busy coding quizzes using Scratch Jn. Fantastic determination and great teamwork everybody!
