Today we started getting our axels and wheels ready and although we have had to make some design adjustments, we are starting to see some completed models. Whilst we wait for the wheels to be ready, we have added some wings to our cars to make them gliders for when we want to propel them from height. We can’t wait

On a chilly but sunny Friday afternoon, Year 3 and 4 were enjoying playing football. Both teams picked their team captains and played with great team spirit today as both teams battled it out on a frosty pitch! The games were fair but competitive and there were lots of skill on show. Both sets of teams scored some great goals

We made moving elves and decorated a Christmas wallet to put all of our Christmas crafts inside.
WEEK 3: We made toasted sandwiches. Firstly, we buttered the bread to stop the bread sticking to the special toasted sandwich machine (and to make to bread nice and crispy on the outside). Next, we put our fillings on the top slice (cheese/pepperoni). Then, we put the bottom slice over the filling and put it in the machine to toast.
Children in this group have been using iPads to create digital media. We had fun taking photos using various filters. Then we created movies using these photos. We investigated adding music and sound fx to our movies, and also added titles and effects.
