World Book Day, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 6th Mar 2025 @ 10:16pm
What a great time Year 1 have had celebrating World Book Day. We have had numerous author workshops this week, some online and one special live one with Stuart Reid! The children have listened to many stories and illustrated with famous illustrators such as Axel Scheffler. Today, they created their own sea monster stick puppets, inspired by our English text 'Lula and the Sea Monster'. They then designed their own book cover. We had a parade of our costumes around the Junior playground with F2 and Y2. We were very impressed with the effort made with costumes as always. A prize was given to the best homemade World Book Day costume. Congratulations Zachary- our very own Mr Bump! We hope you didn't have too much trouble removing the blue paint this evening!

Year 3K Rocks Workshop, by Mrs Harris
Date: 4th Mar 2025 @ 8:52pm
Year 3K had a fantastic time investigating rocks with Mr Ravenscroft from Hi-impact today!
We used our scientific enquiry skills to carry out 5 different investigations.
1. Examining rocks with a magnifying glass and talking about what we could see.
2. A Scratch test: We attempted to scratch the rocks with tools to see how hard/soft they were.
3. Absorbency test: We used a digital scale to weigh the rock before and after dipping in water to measure how much was absorbed.
4. Acid test: We used a pipette to drop hydrochloric acid onto the rock and observe what happened.
5. Fossils hunt! We looked through the fossil boxes to identify fossils and then classified them by type.
A brilliant way to start our new science topic. Fantastic work Year 3!

Year 3M had a fantastic time at their 'Rocks' workshop with Mr. Ravenscroft. They examined rocks with magnifying glasses, tested their hardness with scratch tests, checked absorbency by weighing them before and after adding water, and experimented with hydrochloric acid. They also went on a fossil hunt to identify different types of fossils. The day even included a pancake break—because even scientists need a treat! A fun and educational day for all.

Skeletons with Year 3K, by Mrs Harris
Date: 8th Feb 2025 @ 3:33pm
Year 3K had a fun afternoon learning about the human skeleton! We learnt that the human body is made up of 206 bones! We borrowed a body (thanks Locklyn!) and labelled some key bones such as the skull, rib cage, spine, pelvis and femur. We learnt that the skeleton helps to protect our organs, helps our bodies to move and provides support.
