This half term Year 4 have been busy experimenting with mono printing. Inspired by our under the sea topic, they created some fantastic prints to illustrate their calendars with.

Y6 Collage

Y6 pupils have been working hard this half term on their collage skills. They have been working in groups to create a collage of the jungle - having been inspired by the work of Henri Rousseau.
We think they've done a great job...what do you think?

Felt Book Jackets


Year 4 have been working hard designing and making their own book jackets. Here are a sample of the first ones finished.

Christmas Dinner

Once again, we were able to provide all children who wanted it, a free Christmas Dinner.

Thank you to City Catering, and especially Julie and her amazing team in our kitchen for another fabulous feast! The puddings this year were particularly impressive!

Year 5 and 6 Christmas Performance

Our final performances were yesterday and Years 5 and 6 gave us a fantastically Christmassy medley. It was a real showcase of talents, with musicians playing, beautiful modern and traditional songs being sung, a little bit of French and even the odd turkey thrown in!

Thank you Years 5 and 6 for entertaining us so professionally!

Year 3 and 4 Christmas Performance

Years 3 and 4 kicked off our Key Stage 2 Christmas performances on Monday, and what a way to start! Their theme was 'The Christmas Tardis' and they took us on a journey through time and space to learn about Christmas through time.

Thank you Years 3 and 4 for a fabulous show and for sharing lots of your amazing talents!
