PTA Easter Fair

By Fund Raising, PTA

Good afternoon

The PTA are holding an Easter Fair on Wednesday 16th April. Children will visit the fair in their classes (FS2-Y6) and the fair will be open after school at 3pm for children to visit with parents too.

FS1 children can visit the fair after school at 3pm with parents as they don’t go during school time.

Please could we ask for donations of chocolate items for the tombola. These can be dropped off at school reception at any time.

On the day of the fair, we would really appreciate donations of baking as well.

Thank you.

Where does our food come from?

By Geography, Year 5

Trade is the buying and selling of goods and services we want and need.

When we think about trade as geographers, we consider the scale of trade and think about how trade links places and people.

Everything we want and need cannot be sourced within the national borders of the United Kingdom. We therefore import items such as food products from other countries. We import some goods into our country for sale and we export other goods which means we send goods to other countries for sale.

The physical geography of the UK prevents us from growing certain foods here.

This week in geography, we have been looking at the packaging of different food to see where it was produced. We discussed the country of origin and the continent, using an atlas to make sure we located different countries correctly.

Abstract Art in Year 5

By Art, Year 5

In Art, Year 5 have been learning about the abstract painting of Wassily Kandinsky. He was believed to have synaesthesia which means that when he heard music he saw colours.

We have been learning to mix powder paint with the texture of creamy yoghurt. We listened to different styles of music to see how it inspired our paintings.

Next week, we will be studying his paintings and trying out different painting techniques.

Learning about Length in Reception

By FS2, Maths

This week, Reception have been learning about length in maths. They have read Superworm and used the specific vocabulary of ‘longer than’ and ‘shorter than’ to describe objects.

The yellow superworm is shorter than the pink superworm.

All the children enjoyed the different activities to practice their new learning.
