Each class will be running a reading competition each term. We have asked the children to bring in their Reading Record signed by an adult EVERY Friday. This needs to be signed by an adult to show that they have read AT LEAST once a week.

2nd March 2017: World Book Day

The children (and adults!) dressed up as their favourite story character:

Year 6 studied the propaganda posters of World War II, then created their own slogans and poster designs.

The Blitz was used as inspiration for these artworks.

The Blitz was also used as inspiration for writing, and in DT the children made Anderson shelters, complete with settings.

Pupils were encouraged to relate events of WWII to their own family history. Lucas created a PowerPoint explaining his grandfather's role in the army, whilst Fynley brought some of his great grandfather's possessions to school, including a cigarette case which saved his life during the battle of El Alamein.
