Last week was a blast for our Year 6s at the Magna Science Adventure Centre! We dived into the exciting four pavilions filled with interactive exhibits and had a ton of fun discovering the wonders of Air, Earth, Fire, and Water.

But that's not all! We rolled up our sleeves for a workshop where we got hands-on with 'Big Circuits.' We created large electrical circuits and even experimented with conductors like water!

The next Y6 Taskmaster Challenge is officially live 📣

We’re asking each Y6 student to bring in a news story that they find intriguing. It can be anything from a fascinating historical event, a current happening, or even something they've cooked up themselves! 📰✨

Mark your calendars for Friday, 14th November! We can’t wait to see what amazing stories everyone uncovers. Let the creativity flow!

Happy story hunting, everyone! 🎉

Good morning, families!

We’re excited to share that our children are having a blast during playtime, and the OPAL project is really taking off! This week, we’re on the lookout for any old musical instruments, wellies and kitchen utensils you no longer use. If you've got any spare items lying around, we’d be absolutely thrilled to give them a new life in our play sessions!

Also, don’t forget to check out some fun snapshots of the kids enjoying their lunchtime activities from last week!

Thank you so much for your ongoing support! You truly make our community awesome!

Get creative and have fun! 🧦✨ Don’t forget to share your sock masterpieces with us! ❤️ #BestSocks #Year6Fun

Before the half term holiday, year 6 began their TASKMASTER tasks.

First, the 'TASKMASTERS' had the tricky job of judging the fantastic 'unusual hat' that were bought in!! Well done for all your efforts and to the paretns/carers that supported!!

Next, the warm up task saw us trying to clanace on one leg unaided for up to 6minutes! Many of the children managed it and were awarded the maximum of 5 points.

The main task had teams trying to recreate a picture with only one person looking at it, one running between the 'seer' and the 'drawers'. The outcomes were impressive and showed off the pupils' great communication skills. Much fun was had!!

We can't wait for Friday 7th November when we have more tasks to tackle!!

We hope you’ve all had a wonderful October holiday! As we jump back into our school routine, we’re excited to let you know that our pupils should wear their PE kits on their designated PE day only. This will help keep things organized and fun!
