Class of 2019

Today, we began learning about the artist Eva Rothschild and her sculpture work. We used art straws to make our own sculptures in a similar style.

This afternoon, Year 3 were trying to solve the Maiden Castle mystery. 52 bodies were found at Maiden Castle which was an Iron Age settlement. The children had to study clues as to how they died - Romans or another tribe. They came up with really good theories based on the evidence.

Today, we started making our sandwiches. We have tried to create a balanced, healthy sandwich and we have tried to make them look fun and interesting for younger children.

Today was our schools outdoor learning day. We told stories in the same way as Stone Age people might have done using pictures on stones. We then got to make our own.

This afternoon, we were testing different bread options for sandwiches. White bread was the resounding favourite!

A few more of us drawing a tree.

Here we are drawing a tree.  We thought about how we know what the tree is and decided the leaves give us the best clue.

A great big thank you to the students at the University of Cumbria for organising a fabulous sports festival for our Y1 and Y2 children.  Not only did the children have a great time, precious funds were also raised for St John’s hospice.  If you would like to contribute to this fundraising, please…

Cricket skills.

Football skills. 

One of the events was a mini obstacle course.

We also looked carefully at the 3D shapes and drew around each face.  This helped us to see the shapes of the different faces.
