Super Scientists!

By Willow Class, in Year 6 - Friday, 17 March 2023

We had a brilliant Science Day in Willow Class! Lots of us dressed up and even brought in some science experiments to show to the class. Everybody was impressed by each experiment - we really struggled to pick our favourite! Here are some photos of us with our experiments - you could give one a try at home!

Positive and peaceful PE

By Willow Class, in Year 6 - Thursday, 16 March 2023

This half term, Year 6 have had a lovely, relaxing PE unit: yoga. At the end of yesterday's session which including a sun salutation flow, Willow Class washed away any worries by taking part in some mindful breathing. We held our hands up and traced around our fingers as we breathed in and out. We have been thoroughly enjoying this unit and we will be using some of the breathing techniques to support us with being mindful and calm both in and out of lessons. 

World Book Day 2023

By Willow Class , in Year 6 - Thursday, 2 March 2023

Willow Class have had a fantastic day for World Book Day! We started our morning by sharing our favourite stories, e planning what we love about them and recommending them to others in class. We then took part in a big quiz online - there were over 150,000 participants and famous footballers shared their top tips about reading. Finally, we finished off our day by showing our costumes to the class and hearing which childrens' books the teachers love. What a great final World Book Day as primary school children! 

We met Archie!

By Willow Class , in Year 6 - Tuesday, 21 February 2023

This morning, we got to do something incredibly exciting for passion week! Miss Ferguson's passion is horses - she has her own horse called Archie and she was kind enough to bring him in to school for us to meet. We couldn't believe our luck! We went to see Archie and even got to stroke him; it was the highlight of our morning. Thank you Miss Ferguson! 

Passion Week - Task 1

This week in school is Passion Week! All teachers have picked a passion that they can incorporate into some of their lessons - Miss Hodgson's passion is travelling! She loves visiting new places and creating long lasting memories. Today, we were set our first task: researching a city that she would like to visit and creating a poster all about it. Here are some of our examples!
