Outdoor Learning

Investigating Circuits

Beech class have been exploring electricity and circuits in their science lessons.

David Hockney clay plaques

Linked with our work on journeys, Beech Class learned about perspective and depicting landscapes going into the distance in art. We studied the artwork of David Hockney. After doing our own paintings and collages in his style, we made clay plaques based on his paintings of Yorkshire landscapes.

Planets and space collage

Posters and placards linked to Greta Thunberg protests

We listened to Greta Thunberg’s speeches and learned about the Paris Agreement on Climate Change. We researched the impact of climate change on the planet and made our own posters and placards to protest about the need to stop global warming and limit carbon dioxide emissions..

Paintings in the style of Hundertwasser

Hundertwasser was an Austrian artist who was passionate about nature and conservation. Beech Class studied his art and architecture to link with the work we are doing about Greta Thunberg. We painted our own versions of his paintings with oil pastel and watercolour.

Snowmen biscuits!

Beech Class were feeling very festive as they decorated their biscuits…if you’re wondering why you didn’t get to see them, they didn’t last long!

Christmas scavenger hunt.

We worked in teams to find the hidden objects all around the Winter wonderland, and our school grounds.

Reindeer Rush!

Beech Class ran a mile to raise money for St. John’s Hospice wearing their fetching antlers! It’s not too late to send in a donation if you would like to contribute to our fundraising for the Hospice.
