Zoetropes

Sycamore Class made zoetropes in DT, a popular toy from the Victorian times! We thought carefully about our designs, making sure our animations transitioned smoothly and we really enjoyed trying them out!

STEM First Workshop

This week Beech class had an electricity workshop where we applied key learning from our current science topic on circuits. We heard about lots of different STEM jobs related to electricity.

Orienteering

Sycamore Class’s PE focus is Orienteering.  We have started by learning to set our map and orientate ourselves in a space and using our new skills to navigate around different sets of cones.  Next, we will be using our orienteering course to further our map reading skills.

Leighton Hall

Sycamore Class visited Leighton Hall as part of their History topic, The Victorians.  We were lucky enough to be taken on a guided tour, in which we learnt about the hall in Victorian times.  We had the opportunity to try on Victorian clothes, play Victorian games and discover how they were educated! It was very different to life in workhouses and orphanages!
