This half term Year 3 children have been learning about what a computer network looks like and what the school network looks like.

Children have taken part in a 'scavenger hunt' with a computer network theme where they located network sockets, switches and servers.

If you look at the display in our computer suite or look closely at this picture children have drawn what they think the computer network looks like.

Please read our winning space poems.

These will be displayed in our library.

The Pupil Leaders met with me earlier this week to judge our poems which were entered during Space Week. It was very tough to choose a winner from each class and everybody who entered the competition received a star point.

Our winners won a special book in assembly today.

They are:

Y1- Daisy

Y2- Eva

Y4- Isla

Y5- Amelia

Y6- Kasia

Thank-you to everyone who entered! 

Miss Harvey

Year 6 entered a Young Writers Poetry Competition earlier this term. All 30 entries have been accepted and all of their work will now be published in a poetry book.

I am so proud of your poetry work which was inspired by a poem by author Pie Corbett.

I can't wait to recieve the book when it is published in December!

Year 4 have been extremely precise when they were making their clay mosaics. The products will be painted tomorrow and I can't wait for the final class mosaic. 

Our Bronze, Silver and Gold Home Learning Champions. Well done guys! You have really engaged with this half terms topic theme and completed 4-8+ pieces of cross curricular activities. Keep up the hard work everybody! Check out our fantastic home learning display in the Key Stage 1 corridor!

Our Reading Ambassadors have set an October Reading Challenge. 

Children will be given a book scavenger hunt to complete over the October half term. They need to hunt for different items in a book and write down the title of the book they found their item in on their answer sheet. These need to be completed and handed into class teachers by Wednesday 2nd November.

Happy hunting...

When Year 5 were presented with a challenge to land an egg, safely and slowly, they used their new-found knowledge of air resistance  to design and make a parachute!  They had great fun doing this but also worked together in their teams, with amazing ideas and discussions, to get the best possible design.  Well done Year 5 - your scientific skills are amazing!  Mrs Blomeley

Well done to our Year 5 award winners for last week!  Fantastic work in R.E, being kind and considerate to others and, of course, being Ready, Respectful and Safe are the reasons for these awards!  Keep up the great work everyone and thank you!  Mrs Blomeley
