Thank you for all the amazing entries for the Road Safety Poster competition! The Junior Road Safety Officers, Abi and Lennon, did a great job in choosing the winners, although it was so difficult as they were all fabulous! Becky Barratt was on hand to help give out the prizes of vouchers and certificates to the worthy winners! A huge thank you to Barratt Homes for donating hi-vis jackets for all of KS1 and donating £1000 plus tea and coffee to the school.
Thank you all for your amazing support today. The school has looked really colourful with everyone in their PJs. You all helped raise a fantastic £386.74 for BBC Children in Need.
Year 5 had a brilliant day before half term celebrating their fantastic topic of 'The Titanic'.
Today Year 5 spent sometime thinking and reflecting at Southampton's Cenotaph, about those who lost their lives at War on this special day of remembrance.
Last Friday Year 6 held their annual 'Victorian Fayre'! There was a Victorian sweet treat stall, a tearoom serving delicious homemade cakes, a teddy stall, books and games stall and a wide variety of Victorian street games to play including Roll a penny and Tin can alley. The children also designed and created their own William Morris style coasters to sell. Every element of the fayre is run by the children from baking the cakes and making the sweet treats to designing their stall signs and then running their stall. Well done Year 6 - it was a fabulous afternoon! Thank you to parents who donated cakes and books/games and thank you to everyone who supported the fayre by spending their money!
The children in Year R have really enjoyed the story Leaf Man. They were inspired by the beautiful illustrations and have had a go at creating their own leaf man pictures with the fallen autumn leaves and other natural items that they have found such as sticks, conkers and acorns.
The children had a lot of fun making their pictures. What other pictures could you create?
To help us learn about the properties of shadows and the differences between transparent, translucent and opaque materials Year 3 had a little Halloween shadow puppet fun yesterday. Take a look:-
Year 6 have been working hard in their music lessons to compose a piece of music in groups that they think represents 'the sounds of the factory'. They were shown pictures of various pieces of machinery and had to create a journey of sound around the different machines using repetition and pattern.
They are still building their pieces, but here's a couple of them so far.
