Year Two are learning all about puppets.  First we explored different types of puppets using books, pictures and the real thing before having a go at making our own finger puppets.  

We had to make a template by drawing around three fingers and adding some detail like a unicorn horn or pointy…

Three firefighters came to visit Year 2 this afternoon.  They taught us all about keeping safe from smoke and fire in our homes.  We learnt to "Get out, call them out and to stay out"!  What would you do if there was a fire in your home?

Year 5 have had fun this week, making their own musical instruments. They have previously spent time investigating how different instruments make sounds before planning and designing their own.

In P.E. this term we have been putting our travelling, jumping and rolling skills to the test on the large apparatus. We soon discovered we could go up and down the climbing frame but travelling through proved to be a much bigger challenge.  The ropes were also very tricky but some of us managed…

In maths we are learning that multiplication and division are inverse operations.  We know that we can multiply any numbers in any order but this is not true when dividing.  We have also learnt that good mathematicians like to be organised and one good way to organise our thinking is by using an…
