Important Dates

Autumn 1 – Extreme Earth!

In the beginning half term of Autumn, the children decided to focus on Extreme Earth!  A project all about the natural disasters that happen all over the world. We researched about tornadoes, did sketches and paintings of volcanoes and even recorded our own weather reports using Green Screen technology! Diolch to all the parents who came to our showcase on Thursday 25^th October, we hope you enjoyed yourselves as much as we did. If you couldn’t make it, we hope you enjoyed watching on Seesaw!

Autumn 2 – Lights, Camera, Action!

For the second half of the Autumn term, the children decided they wanted to delve into the world of television and film. We looked at different stimuli like The Grinch and Lighthouse to start thinking about characters feelings, questions to ask them, taking on roles of characters and eventually looking at story innovation. We looked at some of the artwork of Andy Warhol and imitated this as well as trying to learn choreography from famous dances! On Wednesday the 13^th of December, we went to the Riverfront cinema to watch the film Smallfoot – we absolutely loved it! Click this to see everything we did on our Project Web.

Spring 1 – Is Magic Real?

For the start of the Spring term, we began thinking of questions we would like answered to kick off our new project. We voted and the year group decided on ‘Is Magic Real?’, each class then went away and decided what they wanted to learn about. Wow, we have had some amazing ideas! Check out the pictures below to see what we have been up to so far. 

P.E. and Games

3ED – P.E. is on a Tuesday and Games is on a Friday.

3KF – P.E. is on a Wednesday and Games is on a Friday.

Your child should have received their Spelling and Maths homework folders. Homework and spellings are sent home on a Friday and we ask for the folders to be returned on a Thursday to be marked. Homework is also available by clicking the picture below!
