Year 1Mysterious dragon spotted at Queen Emma
Last night, just before Ms Halliwell went home, she spotted something mysterious in the back playground. She could hear a loud, swishing noise and so went outside to investigate. When she got outside, she couldn’t believe her eyes! There, flying round in the sky, just outside Year 1’s classrooms was a large grey, scaly dragon. Ms Halliwell took a video on her phone so she could share with the children what she saw. The dragon flew round in circles several times, before disappearing off over the pond. Ms Halliwell was very worried that the dragon was lost and couldn’t find its way back home. We now need to work out a way to catch the dragon so we can return it safely to its home. Luckily Year 1 are writing some instructions on how to trap the dragon so we should be safe but still be careful if you see it!
What's been happening, Year 23D Shapes
Year 2 had fun investigating 3D shapes through an Nrich challenge ‘Skeleton Shapes’. We had to predict which bundles of straws and balls of clay would make which shape. We synergised to work with a partner or in a group. We though carefully about how many vertices, faces and edges the shapes had. Finally, we shared our shapes in a gallery session and looked at other children’s solutions on the Nrich website.
What's been happening, Year 1
Castle Day
Year 1 had a great day learning all about levers and sliders. We looked at lots of different toys and books that had different levers and sliders and made our own prototypes. We received a letter from Lord and Lady Hedingham from Hedingham castle saying that they needed our help to protect their castle. First we planned what mechanisms we could use by drawing it on our plan. Then we spent the afternoon creating our moving castles. At the end of the day we evaluated our creations, thinking about what went well and what we could’ve done better. We hope Lord and Lady Hedingham were pleased with our models.
Year 6Fronted Adverbials
Thinking about SPaG and a brainstorm session on fronted adverbials!
What's been happening, Year 6Grafham Water
The year 6 classes spent some time challenging themselves with activities at Grafham Water. While the February weather wasn’t the most supportive of the outdoor activities, we were not daunted! We got muddy, cold and tired, but thoroughly delighted with what we managed to achieve while we were there. We immersed ourselves in every activity: we sailed longer distances, cycled up steeper hills and climbed to greater heights than we even imagined we could. A very enthusiastic well done to all, and especially those who hoped that this would be their moment to shine…and found out it was!
What's been happening, Year 6Grafham Water
Grafham provided the Year 6’s with the opportunity to practise some physical activities they would not have a chance to otherwise. Following intense safety instruction, we were able to engage in crate stacking, high rope activities and bmx biking. Very enjoyable!
What's been happening, Year 5World Book Day
We had a busy day! We joined the Live Lesson to hear the interview with Frank Cottrell-Boyce. We sent a message to tell how much we loved Cosmic. We found out that he wrote Cosmic because he always dreamed of going into space when he was a boy.
We learnt and performed the World Book Day Rap by MC Grammar!
We enjoyed our milk and cookies while reading our favourite book together.
What's been happening, Year 1100 Days
Seahorse class had a fantastic day celebrating 100 Days at School. They brought in lots of different items that totalled 100 like lego, shells and someone even measured 100ml!
In Maths we completed challenges like working out how many times we could write our name or how many jumps we could do in 100 seconds. In the afternoon we drew pictures of what we may look like if we reached 100 and discussed what is better- being 100 days old or 100 years old. I wonder if anyone in Seahorse class will celebrate their 100th birthday?
What's been happening, Year 2Book Week
DT
Reception children made houses for the three little pigs. They drew a design first and then made their houses in busy learning. We had a review at the end and children shared their work with their friends.

Polar Bear Class enjoying making pizzas for the grumpy giant and sharing our costumes!
What's been happening, Year 2Maths
Year 2 had fun consolidating their learning on doubling and halving by playing a game with a partner!
What's been happening, Year 6Science
Year 6 have been taking part in a longitudinal study of microorganisms. They have been looking to see what microorganisms grow on bread in different conditions. The pupils had to check up on their bread, draw a diagram in their books of their findings and predict what may continue to happen for next week. They discussed how to treat the experiment with care, therefore ensuring that the results were valid. The lesson ended by discussing and sorting whether the effects of different microorganisms were positive or negative eg mould, chicken pox, flu, making cheese, antibiotics, decomposing matter. I wonder what the bread will look like in the coming weeks when they next check on it!
What's been happening, Year 2Friendships
This term in PSHCE, Year 2 we have been learning about healthy friendships. We have explored some of the qualities of friendship and skills for making friends and have developed some strategies for managing when friendships are difficult. We understand that there are different family patterns and can describe what is special about our own family and its members, and about other people we know.
What's been happening, Year 3Identity
In Year 3 we have been thinking about what we have in common with each other and what is different. We used this to think about our own identity which we then put into a melting pot. We also considered how there can be different stereotypes types linked to identity and how we can try to avoid those stereotypes.
What's been happening, Year 1Shape Hunt
Year 1 went on a shape hunt around the school! We learnt the names of the following shapes: circle, rectangle, square and triangle. We even challenged ourselves to remember and find: ovals, pentagons, hexagons, heptagons and octagons. We discussed the similarities and differences between the shapes that we found.
Nursery, What's been happeningFarm
In Cubs the children have enjoyed reading and singing songs about a farm. They have started to make some amazing animal art work for our display board. We have really enjoyed playing in oats with diggers and dumpers.
The children are getting very good at making animal noises.
Researching a country
The students in year 6 were assigned homework to begin researching a country in South America for this term’s topic. We received many wonderful examples. Here is just one.
What's been happening, Year 2Multiplication
In Year 2 we have been exploring multiplication by using counters to make arrays, tens frames and multiplication charts. We have learnt lots of new vocabulary – factor, product, adjacent multiples, commutative. We know that multiplication is commutative!
What's been happening, Year 13D Shapes
In Maths Seahorse class have been learning about 3D shapes and their properties. We learnt that 3D shapes have 2D faces. We looked at a selection of 3D shapes and identified their 2D shaped faces.
The next day we carried on our learning by learning that 3D shapes laid flat are called nets. We deconstructed different household 3D shapes into nets. Then we looked at some nets, guessed what 3D shape it would make and finally made the nets into shapes. We really had to persevere as it was tricky to cut and glue them!
Uncategorized, What's been happening, Year 6Classification
We have been looking at classification and branching diagrams for our Science topic on “Living Things and Their Habitats.” After being commissioned by the British Confectionary Association to help classify their sweets, we created some Dichotomous Keys to help organise them based on common characteristics. Sweets sorted!
What's been happening, Year 1, Year 2

Foxes have been learning all about winter and hibernation. We have been on winter scavenger hunts around the school grounds and have made hedgehogs using a variety of media. We’ve also had fun dressing up as different characters and role playing with our friends.
ReceptionFreezing and Melting
In Owl Class, we have been talking about the changes in the weather now that it is winter and how that affects the world around us. The children have been having lots of fun exploring ice and talking about ‘freezing’ and ‘melting’. We froze a rubber glove full of water and talked about how we could make it melt using our hands, the sun and other things to warm us. The children spent a lot of time exploring how they could melt it themselves by pouring warm water on to ice cubes and breaking it up with different tools.
ReceptionPenguins
In Reception, children have enjoyed learning the story of Blue Penguin. They have been thinking carefully about what penguins look like and how they survive in Antartica. Using junk modelling, children made their own penguins.
What's been happening, Year 5First Aid
As part of our PSHCE lessons, we learnt some basic first aid. We walked through a scenario of what we would do if we came across someone who was unconscious on the floor and learnt how to put them into the recovery position. We also role-played making a 999 call and discussed when we might need to dial this number.
Year 6PSHCE
In PSHCE Year 6’s have been exploring the idea of friendships, how we have made them previously, how we maintain them now, and how we will begin to develop them next year. We created comic book style illustrations to help document our ideas.
What's been happening, Year 6Poetry
In Year 6, our free verse poetry unit produced some interesting results! Without rhyme or rhythm, we needed punctuation to help develop structure and flow. Here are a few more examples.
Maths
We have been practising our decimal numbers and identifying quantities within each place value. Here is a video of how we have practised:
What's been happening, Year 6PE
The Year 6’s have taken some time to practise their hockey skills in PE. Well done to all!
What's been happening, Year 1Maths
In maths, we composed pattern block images. We named the shapes that made up the pattern block images and we discussed how we had to rotate the shapes to fit the outline.
Year 1Mosques
In RE, we have been learning at mosques. We have learnt that a mosque is a place of worship for Muslims. We learnt about some of the features of mosques including the: minaret, mihrab, shoe racks and wash rooms. Finally, we wrote a sentence about mosques in our books and drew a picture.
What's been happening, Year 2Traditional Tales
Year 2 have enjoyed the start of their learning about traditional tales by sharing stories and playing games with a partner. We have been thinking about the different features of the stories: settings, good and bad characters, magical elements and the language used. So far, we have found talking animals and imaginary lands!
What's been happening, Year 2Maths
Year 2 children enjoyed an Nrich investigation ‘Catrina’s Cards’ which helped them to consolidate their learning in multiplication so far.
The children listened to the information about Catrina’s collection of football cards and represented this by drawing on their whiteboards. This helped them to work out how many she had altogether. The children then had the opportunity to look at each other’s representations; we noticed that they all have different strategies!
We also looked at the example solutions on the Nrich website to see how children in other schools tackled the investigation.
What's been happening, Year 5Space Day
We had lots of fun celebrating the end of our topic with a Space Day. The children came dressed in some great costumes. We played some games to develop our teamwork and communication skills, as well as doing some coding on the iPads. We also had a go at making paper rockets which would be propelled by air blown through a straw.
What's been happening, Year 6Baking
Year 6 engaged in some food technology by baking fairy cakes. Small groups allowed each student to participate fully, and support each other with the processes. The reflection highlighted this point, as many of the students stated that “working as a team” was something that was practised. They recognised problems, such as “egg shells in the batter” to “lumpy mixture,” but all seemed enthusiastic, and look forward to trying their treats!
The pictures were also taken by students with a keen eye. Great effort all around!
Solar System
Year 1 have loved making the planets from the solar system. We made the planets using papier-mâché and then painted the planets in groups. Look through our classroom window to see our amazing solar system!
What's been happening, Year 1Number Lines
Today in maths we explored using a number line to count forwards and backwards to 100. We discussed the interval lines on a number line and what they represent. We then had a go at drawing our own number lines on the playground using chalk!
What's been happening, Year 5Perimeter
We have been learning about perimeter. We placed string around the outside of a shape and cut it when it met the point at which we had started. We then gathered these pieces of string together and compared them to see which objects had the longest perimeter and which had the shortest. Our next step was to use a ruler to measure the pieces of string to find out how long the perimeters were in cm.
Year 6PE
We had a special day for Children in Need, which included lots of PE activities. The “Olympics” activities outside (while muddy) were enjoyable group challenges for s all!
Year 6Celebration of Diversity
Our final activity for Anti-Bullying Week was to create a celebration of diversity. We drew face shapes and then used a variety of colours and patterns to highlight the differences we all have and the interest and beauty it creates.
Year 6WWII
We used IPads and safe search engines to find answers to historical WWII Questions. Some of the research focused on what the women did during the war, what types of vehicles were used and what happened after the war. We used the events in WWII to create a timeline reflecting some of the more significant aspects.
Henry Moore was our focus artist this term. We used his sketches of the shelters in WWII to practise our techniques with different pencils. Shading and cross-hatching were some methods we recalled and showed.
Year 6Poetry
For the year 6 poetry unit, we looked at “Free Verse” style of writing using the poem ‘The Uncertainty of the Poet’ by Wendy Cope. This poem uses only 10 words in total, and rearranges them in a variety of ways to create new ideas – some quite silly! The focus of punctuation mid-line was an interesting challenge for the students, but one they tackled successfully. Have a look at one example here.
What's been happening, Year 5Lunar Cycle
We have been learning about the lunar cycle. We looked at the different ways the moon appears to us and why this happens. We then used Oreos to recreate this pattern.
Year 2Up, up and away
Year 2 used their design and technology skills on their ‘Up, up and away day’. First, they met the Wright Brothers Wilbur and Orville who had arrived specially to help out. They looked at how aeroplanes worked and then made a prototype to test outside .The children then used this knowledge to design an aeroplane that would fly at least 1 metre. The children used their designs to make an aeroplane which they then tested in the hall measuring the flight. To end the day, they evaluated their designs. It was an amazing day.
What's been happening, Year 2Science
In Year 2, the children have been finding out about everyday uses of materials. We have been identifying and comparing the suitability of a variety of everyday materials for particular uses. We explored how the shapes of solid objects made from some materials can be changed by squashing, bending, twisting and stretching. The children found out about ‘fair tests’ and then decided on what materials they would use for a pet home. They made models out of a variety of materials and we then carried out tests on waterproof materials having made predictions. We then discussed our results. It was great fun!
What's been happening, Year 1Representing Numbers
We have been representing numbers within 50 using different pieces of equipment. We loved making the numbers out of: counters, tens frames, numicon, bead strings and dienes. We then partitioned the numbers into tens and ones using a whole-part model.
What's been happening, Year 6Wires
In year 6 we have been investigating wires. We know these studies give us answers to a targeted focus question, but one student found it created more questions. Delighted, she then exclaimed “I need to do another experiment to figure out why!” A Scientist in the making!
NurseryDiwali
In Foxes, we have been talking about Diwali and lighting divas. We made divas out of clay. We rolled the clay, pressed a hole with our thumb, put in a candle and decorated with beads.
NurserySettling In
This term, children in cubs have been settling into nursery. They have been making lots of positive relationships with adults and other children and have enjoyed taking part in new activities.
What's been happening, Year 3History
Year 3 were taken back in time to the Stone Age all the way through to the Iron Age. They were a human timeline – learning all about the different time periods, how people’s clothes changed, how their skills and tools developed and how the climate changed and the impact that had on early man. They were detectives, exploring a range of artefacts and discussed what they could be and what period they could have come from. They ground grains to make flour and even hunted woolly mammoths in the playground!
What's been happening, Year 4Area
Year 4 have been learning about area in maths. First we looked at a square centimetre and estimated how many would cover the surface of different items in our classroom. Then we used square centimetre paper to estimate and then count the squares of the area of different shapes. Finally we looked at a square metre and discussed that in a similar way.
What's been happening, Year 2Computing
Year 2 children have been composing music using 2Sequence and 2Beat in Computing lessons using iPads and the Purple Mash platform. We started with ‘Twinkle, twinkle little star’ and then added our own sounds to create a tune. We experimented with speeding up an slowing down tunes and thought about how music can be used to express feelings. Then we composed a piece of music that made us think of Habit 7 Sharpen the saw! We have really enjoyed being creative with music.
Year 6Remembrance Day
For Remembrance Day Year 6 created poppies, red to symbolise the blood loss of people who fought, and white to represent peace.

What's been happening, Year 1Anti-Bullying Week
The children in Year 1 have really impressed the adults with their amazing work in PSHCE as part of ‘Anti-Bullying Week’. To begin the week, we designed our own t-shirts and we focused on what makes us special. We have learnt that everybody is different and unique but we should always be kind to others. We then worked together to make a kindness paperchain, to represent how being kind can start a positive chain reaction. Towards the end of the week, we developed our collaboration skills by working as a team. We loved passing a hoop around the circle without talking. Well done Year 1.
What's been happening, Year 5Science
We worked together in small groups to act out and describe the movement of the sun, earth and moon in relation to each other. One person was the sun, who stood in the middle, while they were orbited by a rotating earth. At the same time, the moon was orbiting and rotating the earth.
Reception, What's been happeningWoodland Explorers

What's been happening, Year 5Water Resistance
We enjoyed conducting an investigation into water resistance. We created different shapes out of plasticine, dropped them into a funnel of water and timed how long they took to reach the bottom. We discovered that more streamlined shapes were quicker to reach the bottom. We also spent some time evaluating the investigation and discussing what improvements could be made.
What's been happening, Year 5Multiplying Numbers
We have been busy learning efficient written methods that we can use when multiplying numbers. We have looked at how we can use both an expanded and compact method to reach an answer. When working out on whiteboards, we have talked each step through with a partner making sure we explain the place value of each digit as we go.
