Shakespeare Week

During the week of the 4th March, the whole school celebrated Shakespeare and learned all about A Midsummer Night's Dream.  We had a Shakespeare Actor leading drama, we recreated A Midsummer Night's Dream on The Croft, the children confidently using the lines from Shakespeare's play, we created art work to represent the forest and we recited the Fairy Poem during our Friday worship for parents.  In between, we also celebrated World Book Day - dressing up as characters from A Midsummer Night's Dream, and also as our favourite characters from a whole range of stories - we had a brilliant week, enjoyed by all.

 

Space Camp Week

A fabulous week of activities promoting the solar system. Children and their families joined together every evening to make moonrock, design constellations, gaze at the stars using telescopes, binoculars and stargazing apps. Despite the weather, everyone had a fabulous time, and our Year 4 children had the opportunity to sleep over in the Hall, in their own exciting Space Camp Sleepover!

This is what our families thought about Space Camp......

"What an amazing experience for them all, so magical" "Thank you so much for giving our children such an amazing opportunity, it was emotional seeing it last night" "It has been an amazing week, what lucky children." "Thankyou, what special memories they have"

 

 

Remembrance Day

Our School Council led a beautiful Remembrance worship, outside in the playground. They read poems and prayers in front of the whole school. The children showed their respect through their silence and their poppy tributes. 

“We will remember them”

History Week

The children have built time machines this week, which have enabled them to time travel to a variety of time periods in the past!  They have enjoyed experiencing music, food, clothes and learning fascinating facts about the Romans, the Egyptians, the Ancient Greeks, the 1980’s, the 1950’s, the Victorians, the Stone Age, World War II and the Vikings.  It has been a brilliant week in school!
