Year 1 PE- Rolling a Ball
Year 1 have been learning how to roll a ball with accuracy. First, we looked at rolling a ball to a partner with our arm beside us, then rolling a ball with to a partner between our legs. We discussed which one allows us to be more accurate. Finally, we practised rolling a ball with accuracy through a target (between two cones).

Year 3 Class Worship included watching a video clip of Bishop Philip talking about Lent and about making time for God. We wrote some Lenten Promises and we also wrote some prayers for peace in the Ukraine. We ended our worship by singing “Chain of Love”.

The Great Plague - Symptoms and how it spread
Today we have been learning about the symptoms of the plague. The symptoms ranged from feeling delirious, vomiting and even buboes! We watched a Horrible History’s clip that showed how it spread and what people believed were cures such as eating arsenic and sitting in the sewers. Did you know that the famous song ‘ Ring o roses’ comes from the plague and the ring was the swelling or buboes?
Year 1-Easter and New Life
Year 1 have been learning about new life in their RE lessons in preparation for linking it to the Easter story. We have been completing some jigsaws to show the life cycle of a frog and chicken, and we have also been sequencing and writing about the life cycles of butterflies and chickens. We have started to explore the Easter story and making links with new life for example Jesus dying and being in the tomb being similar to a seed deep in the ground, the chick being inside an egg or a chrysalis and Jesus rising from the dead being similar to a beautiful flower flourishing, a chick hatching from an egg or a butterfly emerging from a chrysalis. Year 1 have also been making their own Easter gardens. They have been exploring ways to create the crucifixion, the tomb, the stone being rolled from the tomb and the resurrection.

Year 5 - History
Today, Year 5 had a role of detectives trying to prove that the legend Theseus and the Minotaur may actually have been a fact. They looked at what evidence might have survived ( images) that were part of the story and put the pieces together.
Year 5 - Super Scientists - Gravity Activity with Paper Clips
This week in Science, Year 5 have been experimenting how the Earth’s gravity is what holds us and other things to the ground. We talked about how the magnetic force between the paper clip and magnet were stronger than the pull of the Earth’s gravity on the paper clip, so the paper clip was able to remain in the air rather than fall back to the ground.
