Spring 2022

NURSERY WOW DAY - SHAPES

Our Nursery children thoroughly enjoyed our Shape Wow Day on 14th January 2022. We all dressed up in an assortment of clothes/outfits and proudly showed them off in our shape parade. Alongside lots of different shape activities in the classroom, we played shape games in the hall and looked around our garden spotting shapes as shape detectives. See if you can see what shapes we found in our photos.

Whole School Science day

​The theme of our recent whole school Science day was materials with a focus on scientific enquiry. Professor Brainstorm led 4 fabulous shows across each age group. The children were enthralled by the spud gun, learning how it worked, were amazed by the effect that liquid nitrogen had on a balloon, screamed loudly at popping Pringle tubes and learned all about the materials inside a nappy! 
 
Scientific enquiry took place in classes for the rest of the day. There were investigations in separating materials, dissolving,  changing states, suitability of materials and floating and sinking. A great day of super science.

Our World, Our Planet

The whole school contributed to the new display in our main corridor. The theme is "Our World, Our Planet" and the importance of looking after the environment. There is no planet B! ​
