Science Week Fun! 🔬🌍

This year’s Science Week theme is ‘Adapt and Change’, and we’ve had some great discussions about the many ways we adapt—whether it’s as simple as wearing warmer clothes in winter or how animals have evolved to survive in their environments.

The children worked in pairs to match animals with their unique adaptations, then chose their favourite animal to create an informative poster showcasing what they learned. It’s been a fantastic way to explore the amazing ways living things change to thrive! 🦁🐧🌿

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!
