On Friday 19th January, Mrs Collins, Mrs Walker and Mr Wrench took the school choir to the O2 Arena in London to perform at Young Voices! The children were lucky to be seated in VIP Suites so they enjoyed a spectacular view and could enjoy and perform at the concert in style. 

We were lucky enough to be joined by many parents, who had excellent seats just beneath us, and the children were extremely excited to spot them when they arrived. Every child made themselves and the school proud; they sang beautifully as they always do! 

A special thank you must be given to Mrs Collins and Mrs Walker for dedicating many hours to the children, so they were prepared for the event.  

On Wednesday 11th October, 6C took part in a multi-schools event run by Wicked Weather Watch. The day was both interesting and informative and provided the children with the opportunity to work on a variety of skills and objectives. The day focused on the Island of Svalbard, Norway, which is where our Guided Reading book 'The Last Bear' is set. In the morning, the children discovered what the Arctic region is like, analysed some data about the weather in Svalbard and were set a challenge to build an igloo out of sugar cubes. In the afternoon, the children heard from a real-life explorer, who had visited Svalbard, and thought about how they could reduce their carbon footprints.

On Friday 7th July, Year 4 walked into town to view their art installation and hand out leaflets to raise awareness to the local community of the impact that wasting food can have on the environment. The children showed great confidence when speaking to the public and demonstrated enthusiasm when talking about their learning. The children look forward to seeing whether art can have an impact.
