Reception have been very excited to welcome the ducklings into their classroom. The children have loved watching them and learning about how to care for them. They have handled the ducklings very gently and shown great care and responsibility while holding them. It has been a wonderful experience for the children, helping them learn about animals and how important it is to treat them with kindness and respect.

As part of Science Week, we held a poster competition. The children were asked to design a poster about STEM ( science, technolgy, engineering, maths) careers linked to their current science topic. We were very impressed with the creativity and effort that went into the posters. Take a look at some of our fabulous entries!

Year 1 finished off British Science Week with our big question: Which of the five senses is the most important? Children had to write their full name without being able to see Try to build a lego tower with one hand and sock on the other They ate some fruit without being able to taste Attempted a conversation without being able to hear Finally, they held their nose to smell vinegar! This was a fun experiment and everyone worked really hard. Ask your child all about this and s

We have had the best ever pancake day at school! We all made pancake batter together, talking about different ingredients we were using. We made eggless pancakes which the children said tasted soooooo delicious! We poured our pancake batter into the pan onto the fire. We learnt how heat can cook and change food. The children then chose their own toppings and asked for more! The children were excellent at flipping the pancakes too!

Twelve Year 3 and 4 children took part in the RSPB Big Schools' Birdwatch with Mr Pryce. We spent 1 hour counting the birds that we could see around our school and we managed a total of 9 different species in that time. By the end, the children were becoming quite skilled and could identify Magpies and Blue Tits as well as see that there were different types of Gulls using our school field. They also got to try Mr Pryce's binoculars. Afterwards, Mr Pryce sent our results to t

The children suggested their own lines of enquiry to find out which fizzy drink contains the most sugar. They began by making guesses and suggested tasting the drinks, but quickly realised that taste buds vary and this would not be an accurate way to investigate. They then used the nutritional information on the labels, recording the sugar content and converting the amounts to find how much sugar is in a 2-litre bottle. This helped the children make fair comparisons and under

On the morning of Tuesday 15th December 2015, at 11.03, Tim Peake launched into space on a Soyuz rocket to spend six months on board the International Space Station. Tim’s mission was named Principia, after Sir Isaac Newton’s work on the laws of motion. During Tim’s time in space he ran scientific experiments for hundreds of researchers, went on a spacewalk and inspired the next generation of space explorers through numerous activities, looking at topics such as coding, maths

Early Years had a fabulous afternoon when a farm came to visit—along with a very special Christmas guest! The children enjoyed getting up close and personal with a variety of animals and loved learning all about them. It was an exciting, hands-on experience that brought plenty of smiles.

Year 5 brought all their learning from their Mission Control  topic to life with an exciting trip to the National Space Centre in Leicester. During the visit, they explored the fascinating exhibits, discovering a wealth of facts about space and science. A highlight was the impressive Rocket Tower, where they saw real-life examples of space technology up close. They also enjoyed an explosive live show all about the history of rockets — from the early firework-style rockets of
