Parachute fun!

Year 6 help to lead our whole school Ash Wednesday worship in church.

Over the past couple of weeks, the children have been creating instructional writing. They started by creating instructions for making pancakes, as inspired by Matilda. Next, the children wrote instructions for making Rice Krispie Cakes and they loved following the instructions to make them. For our final stage of instructional writing, the children made their own set of instructions for their own cakes! There were some very imaginative ingredients for the cakes! It was so lovely to see children inspired to make their own tasty treats at home too!

Year 5 had the adventure of a lifetime at the Winchester Science Museum. We took part in some learning in the planetarium and had a session in the classrooms all about light and how the light we see can be broken down into different colours.

We also explored the self-learning areas - we were able to find our school from space and even feel how heavy a tin of beans would be on each planet!

We had the most amazing day, full of astonishing facts and magnificent learning. 

This week, our EYFS children embarked on an exciting sensory adventure, exploring an Ice Mountain! Through hands-on exploration, they discovered the wonders of ice—feeling its texture and observing melting changes. 

As part of our 'Explorers Assemble!' project, we spent a wonderful morning with Bex from FROGS Drama!
