    Fri 29 Apr 2022 Miss Tweedy

    This week in Earth we have been exploring lots of different kinds of magnets. We explored what a magnetic field was and used iron fillings to see its shape. We then tested materials to see if they were magnetic or not and created our own experiment to test a magnets strength!

    Thu 28 Apr 2022 Mrs Mustard

    In Literacy, Neptune have been reading Christophe's Story. In our outdoor learning session, we asked the children to recreate the scene of being a refugee. They focused on the journey they would have to take to get to a safe country. This included looking at the thoughts and feelings of Christophe that were previously discussed in our lesson.

  • Fantastic Fruit and Vegetables!

    Thu 28 Apr 2022 Miss Cant

    Today Jupiter have been identifying fruits and vegetables. We learnt that to identify a fruit it must have seeds so we had lots of examples to explore and sort. After sorting the fruits by deciding which ones did have seeds and finding the vegetables which didn’t have seeds, we also got to taste some of them!
