Year 2 took part in an outdoor learning session about the great fire of London. The children arrived at the site to find houses set up to represent a London street from 1666. Following a discussion about how the fire began, a fire was lit in the bakery. The children got to see how the fire spread so easily and were able to explain how the fire was stopped through the explosion of a house. This was replicated through a removal of one of the cardboard houses.
Year 4 have taken part in an outdoor learning lesson
The children had researched and designed their own Shang Dynasty artifact made out of natural materials. The children collected their resources and created their own environmental art artifact.
Year Six have been studying scale. They used a map of the school grounds to measure distances on the map then on the actual ground. As a class they compared the measurements and concluded that the scale was 1:464.
Year 3 have been planting trees with the Woodland Trust. The children had a wonderful morning and planted over 30 trees! This is a new woodland and connects Path Head Woods to Summerhill Woods.
The nursery children made scrambled eggs outdoors this week! We were amazed by how they could change from a hard shell to a soft sticky liquid when we cracked them open. We mixed them very carefully and then cooked them, they were delicious. The chickens even tried to taste them.
