Art in Nursery, by Mrs Andrews
Date: 29th Jan 2026 @ 4:39pm
Art in Nursery gives children the opportunity to express themselves creatively through a wide range of materials and techniques. Children explore painting, drawing, collage and modelling, using colour, texture and shape to share their ideas. These experiences help develop fine motor skills, imagination and confidence, while encouraging children to enjoy the process of creating and expressing themselves.

DT: Planning and Making Boats, by Mrs Perry
Date: 29th Jan 2026 @ 8:49am
In Reception, our children love exploring how things work through hands-on play and investigation. As part of our learning, the children planned, designed and created their own boats using junk modelling materials such as boxes, bottles and cardboard.
The children talked about their ideas, chose materials carefully and worked together to build their boats. They then tested them in water, watching to see which boats floated and which sank. This led to lots of excitement, problem-solving and thoughtful discussions about why some designs worked better than others.
Through this activity, the children developed creativity, curiosity and early science skills, while also building confidence, teamwork and resilience. Most importantly, they had lots of fun learning through play!
Transient Art, by Mrs Perry
Date: 28th Jan 2026 @ 4:26pm
Transient art is a creative and playful way for children to explore art using natural and everyday materials such as leaves, stones, shells, fabric and loose parts. Children are encouraged to arrange, design and redesign their creations, developing imagination, problem-solving skills and fine motor control. Because transient art is temporary, there is no pressure to make a finished product, allowing children to express themselves freely, collaborate with others and enjoy the process of creating. This open-ended approach supports curiosity, communication and a love of learning while helping children to connect with the world around them
UTW: History, by Mrs Perry
Date: 28th Jan 2026 @ 4:20pm
The children have been learning all about growing up and the different stages of life. We talked together about what happens as we grow from a baby into a child, an adult, and an older person. The children enjoyed ordering pictures to create a human timeline, helping them understand how people change over time. This learning supported them in talking about themselves, their families, and how everyone grows and develops in different ways.

God's Creation Art Paintings, by Mrs Perry
Date: 28th Jan 2026 @ 4:05pm
In Art we have been learning to paint God’s beautiful creations. The children have enjoyed looking closely at nature, such as flowers, trees, and animals, and using different colours and brushes to show what they can see. Through painting, the children are learning to care for God’s world, share their ideas, and feel proud of the special artwork they create.
River Walk, by Miss Robinson
Date: 28th Jan 2026 @ 4:01pm
This morning, Year 4 had a walk to follow the journey of the River Roch. On the way to the River Roch, we walked along the canal. When we arrived at the River Roch, we were upstream nearer to the source and we followed the river flow downstream. We spotted fast flowing water, like rapids, and a sign warning people of the danger of this. We saw flood barriers/defences near to the important building of Riverside. Here, there was also a steep riverbank. The water depth varied and we could spot the rocks of the river bed in some places. One interesting part of the River Roch is that is goes underneath part of the town so it felt like we could walk on water! Well done year 4 for walking so sensibly today!

Computing -January 2026, by Mrs Cavill
Date: 21st Jan 2026 @ 5:00pm
This term we have been learning how to write alogorithms for some new hardware we have in school. The new equipment involves pieces called, " Crumble and Sparkle." Despite Mrs Cavill calling it a "Crimble," 5C have been doing incredibly well. This week our circuit included a crimble, a sparkle, a motor and a wheel. We had to program the circuit to spin with a paper disc on the top. See the results in our photos.

On Tuesday morning Year 5 walked to Neeli-Mosque. We had a guided tour around the Mosque led by Samar and his colleague.

The mosque also provide us with a biscuit and juice before we walked back to school.
Thank you to Neeli Mosque for welcoming us all again this year,

Class 2K Assembly, by Miss Kyte
Date: 19th Jan 2026 @ 2:50pm
On Thursday we did our Year Two Class assembly all about New Beginnings. We focused on the celebrations of New Year and talked about the traditions that many of us have around this time such as making New Years resolutions, singing Auld Lang Syne and counting down at midnight. We also looked at all of the exciting things that we have to look forward to in the year of 2026 such as the Mens Football World Cup, a full solar eclipse and lots of exciting new movies! We described Bible stories that relate to new beginnings and how they can symbolise a fresh start. We looked at examples of this such as Noah and the Ark and Moses leaving the Egyptian Palace. The children were incredible in their class assembly and did themseleves proud!
