Chestnut Class’ Trip to the Church
Chestnut Class took a trip to St Mark’s the local church today. We met Reverend Peter who answered all of our questions and showed us some of the special items around the church. We even got to ring the bell!
Pizza Making
Sycamore Class made pizzas as part of their current Geography topic, Italy! We enjoyed preparing the pizzas and thought carefully about our toppings. Some of us even took a risk and tried new foods for the first time.
Athletics
Twelve children in Sycamore class recently took part in the CSSCO Athletics competition at Arkholme school. They each had to participate in a track and field event against children from different schools. It was a fantastic afternoon with the children demonstrating super teamwork and perseverance! Well done!
The Lake District-Sycamore
Sycamore really enjoyed their recent trip to the Lake District. At Wray Castle, we spent time sketching the beautiful scenery and making cosy habitats for animals. We had to think carefully about what to include in our habitats to ensure they were perfect for animals to live in, including a comfy place to sleep, a source of food/ water and protection from the elements. We then travelled to Brockhole via boat; some of us even braved the top deck! At Brockhole, we made sculptures on the beach and spent time playing in the amazing park. We all had a super day!
Heaves Farm
Sycamore Class had a fantastic day at Heaves Farm learning about farming! We spent time with the cows, learning about how they are looked after and how we collect milk. We also learnt about how sheep are sheared and how their fleece can be used to create lots of different things! We had a great day!
DT
Beech Class have used sawing, sanding, gluing and hammering skills in their DT work on structures this week. Linking to our Africa theme, we built nomadic dwellings and completed independent research to find out about the Tuareg people: a semi-nomadic tribe in the African Sahara.
University of Lancaster
A visitor from the University of Lancaster led a STEM workshop exploring structures and how engineering can be used to solve problems. We designed space-saving planting systems to grow our own cress in the classroom.
Puberty Lessons
Beech Class have been learning about changes that happen to our bodies as we get older.
Bikeability
Beech Class enjoyed taking part in Bikeability. They all tried so hard and the instructors were very impressed with their effort. Well done everyone!
