🏆 Dodgeball Festival Success! 🤩

We took a year 5/6 team to a dodgeball festival, where they took on a wide range of teams in a fun, friendly and fast paced afternoon of action. 🏃💨

The festival was all about teamwork, communication and enjoying the game, which all our players really embraced. 🤝

They worked together brilliantly, encouraged each other throughout, and showed great sportsmanship in every match. The team were extremely honest when they were out and continued to support from the sidelines. 📣

There were plenty of impressive throws, quick dodges and clever tactics on display, but most importantly, the team had lots of fun and represented the school superbly. 🌟

Well done to everyone who took part! 🎉

🏀🏆 YEAR 5/6 BASKETBALL: SOUTHERN AREA CHAMPIONS! 🥇🎉

What an incredible afternoon of basketball! Our Year 5/6 team headed to the Southern Area Finals and delivered a truly outstanding performance from start to finish. The team went unbeaten throughout the entire competition, winning all of their pool games before showing more grit and determination during the semi final.

They saved their best for last, producing a fantastic display of teamwork, focus and skill to win the final and be crowned Southern Area Champions! 🥇🎉
Every player contributed brilliantly, they defended brilliantly, moved the ball with confidence, and supported one another on and off the court.

The team now progress to the County Finals, where they’ll represent the whole Southern Area. A huge well done to all the players - and thank you to the supporters and staff who helped make the day such a success. 🙏👏

Year 3 have been working hard this term creating their own stop motion animations. 🎬✨ They have been using the class cameras to create different frames, being careful to change only one thing each time and using onion skinning to ensure their work is as precise as possible. Well done everyone, we cannot wait to see your final animations. 👏

ACTIVE MATHS!
Our year 5 pupils have been busy bringing maths to life this term!

One class had great fun playing ‘Dicey Operation’ — a fast-paced game where pupils roll dice to create 3-digit and 2-digit numbers, multiply them together and race to get as close to 10,000 as possible. Lots of excitement and brilliant mental maths on display! Meanwhile, another class has been hands-on with 3D shapes, exploring their properties and deepening their understanding through practical investigation.

🏛️ Roman Graduation Day 🛡️

Roman Day was one of those days that just lifts the whole school! ✨

Year 4 arrived as proud Roman soldiers, every one of them looking brilliant in their uniforms. Each class created its own standard and chose a standard bearer, which instantly made the rooms feel like mini legions.

The children then set to work designing and painting their shields 🎨 before heading outside to train in classic Roman formations. The orb, the wedge, the tortoise… they marched, they turned, they moved as one. It was honestly a sight!

In the afternoon, Wiseius Caesar 👑 visited and was so impressed by their knowledge, teamwork and discipline that it was agreed that every child should graduate from our Roman soldier school. 📜

A triumph in every sense and a day they won’t forget! 🎉

Year 5 pupils have been developing their skills in Kodu during their computing lessons, learning how to design and build their own Kodu worlds. They have explored how to shape and adjust the terrain, as well as how to program their characters’ movements and create scoring systems using ‘When… Do…’ instructions.

The children have also enjoyed using the Chromebooks to carry out research on King Alfred as part of their recent history lessons, building their understanding through independent online enquiry.

📚English in Year 5 🎭

This half term, our year 5 pupils have been bringing the story of Hugo Cabret to life through drama. They created freeze frames to support their diary writing, helping them visualise key moments and think critically about the characters’ emotions. More recently, the children have used mime activities to deepen their understanding of how the characters behave and respond to one another, all in preparation for their narrative writing.
