On Wednesday, it was transition morning and all of the children in school moved to the classes they will be in from September for a few hours. All of the children in Holly class came back from Hawthorn class having had a lovely time and excited for what is to come, it was lovely to see. We will continue to talk about next year and what that means so that the children feel fully prepared come September.

• Friday 20 June 2025 25 Willow wb 16.06.25 This week we started work on our new topic which is history based and all about life in 1940s Britain. We began by learning about the countries who were involved in WW2 and some of the causes for this event in History. We then mapped the countries according to those who were allies, those controlled by axis power and those who remained neutral. Next week we will be considering what life was like for children during this time and how the war had an impact on their everyday lives.

• Friday 13 June 2025 25 Willow wb 09.06.25 We've had a busy week in school! Our Year 4 children have completed their multiplication checks after lots of hard work and practise – we were so proud of how sensibly and confidently they approached the challenge. In maths, Year 3 have been learning all about time durations, using the correct units like seconds and minutes to answer different questions. Meanwhile, Year 4 have been exploring the properties of triangles, learning how to compare different types of triangles and spot their features.

The children have loved spending time in the theatre space in our classroom which is now set up as the beach, a boat and an ice cream shop! The children have also been recapping their knowledge of the countries that make up the UK and sharing their experiences of visiting the seaside. We enjoyed spotting some coastal settlements using google earth and learning about the the geographical features of the beach.

• Thursday 12 June 2025 25 Acorn 25 Mr Gumpy's Outing Mr Gumpy’s Outing is a funny story that features a boat that is so overfull that it tips and the animals fall out! This has led us to experiment with floating and sinking, looking at different materials, their buoyancy and the amount of weight that they can hold. We have also used this as a basis to our phonics and have been pracitising using our robot voices to identify the different animals that are on the boat.

This gave us all chance to wear our crowns and shields, and go for a pony ride around the playground. It has also been science week, so we have been looking at 'hot and cold'. In the afternoon, we used ice paints to colour a large piece of paper.
