Blogs from the Year 2016-2017
Year six have been working with the Warner Textile Archive to find out about different sewing techniques, decoration and embroidery. The children made their artwork based on Pandora's box which we have been studying in English and across other curriculum subjects.
On Thursday 10th June, Rowans class took part in a Middle School Sports Day. All of the children enjoyed their day and had lots of fun. They were all extremely encouraging and supportive to everyone in their team. Despite a huge team effort, Rowans came 3rd out of the year 3 classes. We were incredibly proud of their resilience and sportsmanship on the day!

Maples had a great week learning about Healthy Bodies and Healthy Minds. We learned a lot about mental health and explored different ways we can help manage our emotions and feel positive. We looked at healthy foods and tried lots of unusual fruit and vegetables that are healthy snacks. We were very surprised at the sugar content of some of our favourite drinks. We did lots of fitness and physical activity all week, culminating in our Sports Morning on Friday. The children all worked very hard and encouraged each other to be the best they could be...it was fantastic that the class had the most points of the Year 6 classes and that Courtney and Orlaith won the individual prizes for Year 6.
