Art workshop at Thomas Adams

Some of our children had the opportunity to go to Thomas Adams for an art workshop led by the Art teacher! They got to try reduction printing linked to their work on the Maya in History. They had a fantastic time!

Pentecost workshop

We took part in a workshop very kindly ran by members of the local Church, teaching us more about the events of Pentecost!

Acting out our English story

We really enjoyed acting out our story that we are learning in English! Using drama is a great way for children to immerse themselves in a story and to understand the characters’ thoughts and feelings.

 

Digestive System experiment!

We had great fun modelling the digestion system process using a pair of tights to represent the small intestine. It was quite messy!

Van Gogh’s techniques

We explored Van Gogh’s use of line in his sketches. Next, we are looking at how he used complementary colours in his painting.

Amazing animal projects!

Class 4 got creative and created a project each all about an animal group of their choice. We had PowerPoints, posters, fact-files and even 3D models!

Creating branching databases

We worked collaboratively to select attributes to separate objects into groups by asking different ‘yes or no’ questions. We then created branching databases!

Making torches

As part of our Design and Technology and Science learning, the children have been combining their knowledge of constructing electrical circuits and using their practical skills to plan, design and resourcefully create a handheld torch! They chose which type of switch to use in their circuit to enable the bulb to light up.

Blists Hill 2026

Class 4 had a wonderful day at Blists Hill, learning all about life in the Victorian times. We visited the Grocers, Chemist, Iron Foundry, Drapers, Sweet Shop, stables, Candle Factory, Post Office and the Bank. After that, the children dressed up as Victorian school children and experienced a lesson taught by a very strict Victorian school teacher! A (very) busy, yet insightful day was enjoyed by all.
