We enjoyed looking at the shapes we needed to use to help make our structures stronger. We designed our structures and discussed how we can join the models to make them move. 

We all took part in our annual sports morning. The children were fantastic and competed brilliantly. We also saw some pre-schoolers racing and my all time favourite… the Mums/Dads and Grandparents race! 
Well done to Castle Reds who won

We spoke about which shape structures should be to be strong. They worked as a team to make a large 3D structure. 

Today we enjoyed competing in our team colours to win the Intra Sport's trophy.

We investigated how other artists used clay to produce a piece of art. We moulded it into the shapes that we wanted using our hands and tools. We are excited to paint them next ! 

We have enjoyed looking at the designer Orla Kiely and have made our own printing tiles in the same style. We have produced some super designs. 

We had written our own version of ‘The Enormous Turnip’ for example ‘The Mega Carrot’. We read them to our buddies. The Year 6’s also read ‘ The Enormous Turnip’ to us but in French !!

We were getting ready for our Coronation afternoon with some decorations! 

Our plants have started growing! We are super excited to take them home soon. 

We have planted our Sunflower seeds this week. We discussed what plants need. We also labelled the features of a flower and spoke about the jobs they have.
