We are working on a small project to show other pupils in our cluster how to use drones. The pupils have decided to build models of skyscrapers, they will then put them out on a ‘map of the world’ and go on a ‘tour’ of the skyscrapers around the world, using the drones.
Following the Creation story, we painted our favourite thing that God created. Amazing paintings!
We held our first meeting of the year today and discussed what we wanted to improve about our school, how we could raise money for resources that we would like and which charity we wanted to support. We chose the RNLI because a local company (Clayton Engineering), where some of our parents work, make the lifeboats that are then sent out and used all over the UK by the RNLI volunteers to rescue people.
We also voted for our new Chair and Vice Chair of School Council:-
Annie, supported by George, will take the position of Chair
Honey, supported by Frankie, will take the position of Vice Chair
Well done everyone for a very productive meeting! Our first event will be next Friday 27th September when we will be hosting a cake sale at break time to raise money for the RNLI!
Children enjoyed taking on the role of being engineers and designing and building their own shadufs.
As part of the museum’s guide book in our Mantle of the Expert, we were challenged to create simple algorithms to guide Beebots around the tomb of Tutankhamun.
We are so proud of our budding young performers and how they were able to convey all of their knowledge of the ancient Egyptian Gods, Kings and way of live to the stage in their recent production of ‘A Glint of Gold’. The play is about the dramatic discovery of Tutankhamun’s tomb.
Wow! Jody Mc Partlin from Stoneglass Mosaics has put the finishing touches to our whole-school mosaic that she has worked with the children to produce. Since Easter Jody has worked with children throughout the school to design and create the mosaic based on our school values. The project has been part funded by a grant from the Diocese. Da iawn Pawb!
As part of our work remembering the D-Day landings, we made parachutes and tested them.
