Math Café
The Red and Green Class were really lucky to have the chance to have to experience a maths café with parents. Everyone had the chance to play lots of problem-solving games and it was excellent to see pupils with their parents
Y6 Forensic Science
As part of science week, we were tasked to solve a crime using forensic science. A safe had been robbed and the children had to analyse DNA and fingerprints to solve the crime after whittling down a list of suspects. Fortunately, Year 6 solved the crime and the culprit was locked up!

Bridge Making Y5!
This half term in Y5 we are making bridges. Today we investigated truss bridges and worked as a team to make our own using straw and tape. We have experimented on how to ensure our bridge is strong and sturdy and will test them with weights next week.

Forest School Fun
Reception look forward to Forest Fridays every week, where we have a focused activity to participate in. This week, Ladybirds were building their funky fingers by creating leaf silhouettes using squirt paint bottles. They loved hunting for leaves of different shapes and sizes before gluing them down and getting to work! We then had time to learn through play in the Forest.
Once back inside, we warmed up with hot chocolate and flicked through the photographs which Miss Mallen had captured throughout our session, discussing which part of the session we enjoyed the most.
Cross County Reginal finals
We had a great morning with Y3 and Y4 girls and boys competing in the regional finals for cross county. Well done to our reginal finalists you were all a credit to our school!

Grasshopper's had an amazing time at Tynemouth Aquarium where they got to see some interesting sea life. They enjoyed watching the wonderful coloured fish and scary sharks swim all around them in the water tunnel as well as exploring in the rock pool encounter where they got to touch a starfish. The seals kept us all entertained at their show, splashing and waving at us. One favourite part was watching and feeding the River Giants from the Amazonian River, we could not believe the size of them.

Getting Married

We hope that Miss Storey has a fabulous day and honey moon.
We look forward to her returning to school as Mrs French.
Year 5 D.T
On Wednesday D.T we have continued our work on structures. We have explored all of the safety procedures needed when working with wood and tools. Then we had a go at marking, measuring, using bench hooks and saws to cut our wood at 10cm intervals. We were extremely sensible and careful when using the tools and wood and are looking forward to sticking the wooden together and creating a wooden truss bridge.

Year 5 Pasta making
On Wednesday Pasta session with Chartwells learning all about making pasta. We rolled the dough and cut it into shapes, we stuffed it with cheese and made a pasta called tortellini. We learnt about carbohydrates and how important they are for us because they give us energy.
