Well done to all our award winners in Year 5 this week!  Headteacher's awards were presented for beautiful maners and improved presentation!  Good to be Green awards for being Ready, Respecttful and Safe this week and Bronze awards for achieving 50 Star Points!  Awards for achievements outside of school included Gold and Bronze medals for swimming and a medal for completing a Santa Dash in Chester!  Fantastic work all round Year 5!  Mrs Blomeleyt

Spy Day finally arrived in Year 5 last Thursday and the class came to school disguised in their amazing spy outfits! They looked brilliant!   Year 5's classroom had been transformed into Spy Headquarters and the morning was spent finding clues, cracking codes, practising spy moves, such as the "brush past", and making the spy gadgets that they'd designed.  Add to this some invisible writing and watching the film of their class text "Stormbreaker" in the afternoon and an action packed and fun day was had by all!   Well done Year 5!  Mrs Blomeley (aka Agent Blomovich!)

Year 5 have been practising their square numbers since September, singing and marching to the "Square Number" song - "A square number is the product of a number with itself!"   Last week they made squares, using foam squares, and realised that they needed the actual amount of square numbers to create the perfect square!  Mrs Blomeley

Year 4 had a fantastic time when they took part in the Santa Dash this morning.  Well done everyone!

We had lots of fun in our festive Santa Dash- the children were given different missions to complete by the Sports Ambassadors- I especially loved seeing you run like turkeys and snowflakes!

A special well done to our Y6 Sports Ambassadors for being so helpful and enthusiastic when supporting younger children across school with their Santa Dash.

You have all definitiely earned your Christmas dinner now. 

 Well done to the children who received this weeks Head-teacher, Good to be Green and bronze awards. Year 2 received a whole class award for their fantastic singing and acting in our nativity. Well done to H who has achieved two awards at her swimming club outside of school. Well done everybody. One more week to go!

Congratulations to our superstars this week- Daniel and Heidi.

Daniel is working so hard in class but also at home. I am really impressed with the effort that he puts into his home learning- keep this up Daniel.

Heidi is the role model in the class to beat! She is hardworking, conscientious and dedicated to every lesson. She is a super prefect and monitor too. Well done for being such a star Heidi.

Today we celebrated and joined in with the National Santa dash whilst listening to some Christmas songs. Oh what fun!

Year 6 have enjoyed our geography unit on using different types of maps. The children can locate places using Google Earth and had the chance to use the measure tool to estimate and measure the perimeter of iconic buildings. We have found out about Ordnance survey maps and how to use 4 and 6 figure grid references- we used Purple Mash to use our map skills to locate cities in the UK and countries across Europe. We then created our own 3D contour maps to show height on a map- we will use these 3D islands to help us create our dinosaur narratives next week. 

Year 3 children enjoyed Santa Dash and Christmas dinner.
