Toy Visitor
Today we were visited by Mrs Garside from Shibden Hall. She came to help us learn more about toys from the past. We had a fantastic time learning and playing with the toys. We also got the chance to draw our favourite. We have had a fantastic day!

Trip to York Chocolate Story
Year 4 had an amazing time in York today as they had a guided tour of York Chocolate Story and attended a Science workshop at the Methodist Church.
The children were really well behaved and enjoyed learning about the history of chocolate, tasting different kinds of chocolate and making their own chocolate lollies and wall paper.
Well done, Year 4 and Thank you Mick and Edwina for coming with us.

Year 5 – Tatton Park Trip
On Wednesday 27th March, Year 5 visited Tatton Park as part of their Topic work. This visit highlighted facts about WW2 and the children were able to link the trip with their learning.
During this trip, the children were able to visit a house which was for evacuees in WW2. The furniture and features of the house were exactly the same so the children felt very privileged to be part of ‘history.’
They were also given a tour of the farm and the daily activities that the evacuees were meant to do. They got the opportunity to complete some of these activities.
It was a nice trip to finish off the World War Two topic. The children and the staff really enjoyed themselves.

Year 4 Photos – Spring 1
We have been very busy this half term! Here are some photos to prove it!!
In Maths, we have been learning about angles, symmetry, perimeter and properties of 2D shapes.In Science, the rice experiment taught us that vibrations create sound and we investigated how to make a low and high pitched sound with various instruments.
In English, we learnt a Polish legend about a clever cobbler who defeated a terrible dragon and a rhythm and rap poem about an iguana. In RE, we learnt how Hindus worship at home and in a Mandir and created a Hindu shine in our classroom. In French, we learn to name the parts of the body and what to say at the doctor’s. We also took part in a fantastic workshop on the Ancient Egyptian mummies!
Well done, Year 4!

Year 3 Art Day
Today in Year 3 we had our first Art day.
We focused on mixing colours with a variety of materials and the outcomes have been fantastic.
We have drawn and painted Stonehenge and even made it out of biscuits – yummy!
We’ve had a lovely day and learnt lots about Art.
