Year 2 have had a great day today celebrating all of their learning about Myths and Legends!
The children were asked to bring in a home project all about a mythical creature or legend. They did a brilliant job and were very brave standing in front of the class for their presentations.
We are so proud of everything Year 2 have achieved this half term and for having such a brilliant topic day!

Our second group had their turn in the kitchen today to create smoothies! Leading up to this we have been busy learning about how fruit and vegetables grow, the differences between them, tasting them and then creating ingredients lists. The children had great fun and will be rating their smoothies out of five stars!
We have been learning to play the trumpet and clarinet in our music lessons. It can test our resilience when we don't quite get it right but we have strength and we will never give up :)
Today half the classes went into the kitchen armed with their aprons and their ingredients lists. They worked together as a team to chop and prepare the fruit and then took turns using the blenders. Taste testing then commenced and most were deemed to be delicious! A few (mainly the ones that had carrot in) were given mediocre reviews as they were a bit chewy! Next Friday the other children will be having their turns, too.
Year 6 have had a wonderful day today, recreating a Victorian school!
The morning began with a 'drill' (PE for Victorians!), followed by the children entering their Victorian classroom for the morning. They learned so much about how school worked in the Victorian era: fingernail inspections, arithmetic, handwriting and posture lessons. They even discovered the fascinating history of the potato! Why not ask a Year 6 what they learned today?
The children were brilliant at getting into character - we were very proud of them!
Y4 are going to be constructing and designing temples for one of the Greek Gods. As part of our journey we explored creating different shapes for our structures and the best way to keep them stable. We used sweets and cocktail sticks for this activity. We had lots of fun!
