Inspired after taking part in the Year 4/5 production earlier this term, Lucinda, Hannah and Eleanor in Year 4 have got the acting bug! They have written the script for their own play and have began rehearsing it. They hope to perform it to their class and they now have plans to film it.
We entered two teams into the Science Quiz Club this week, one from Year 5 and one from Year 6. Both teams did fantastically well and showed some great team work . Excitingly, the Year 5 team of Benedict C, Elise C, Charlie P and Jesse O achieved the second highest score (1800 points) across all…
Really sparking curiosity with electrical circuits this week, Year 4 were creating their own circuits and using them to test for conductors.
Curious to find out how they could make their Lego speak, Year 5 set about using their reasoning skills. They looked at some algorithms and computational thinking and here is the result…
It was a pleasure to see the pupils in year 8 lead Element meetings today. Excellent celebrations and togetherness all round: show up totals, progress badges and birthdays, were also packed in! Well done to George H, Luca C and Clara M for organising these.
Mars has really sparked curiosity across Phase 3, so much so it has been reeking havoc with Mr Cook’s lesson planning! The children have been incredibly resourceful designing their own space bases, so if they ever find themselves holidaying on Mars in the future they will have a very luxurious place to stay! Here is…
Dear Pupils and Parents of Phase 3, As we approach the end of the spring term I find myself looking back and reflecting on the vast array of wonderful learning experiences and social opportunities the pupils have been part of. It’s been a term of two halves… but not as we know it! Learning online…
Our intrepid scientists continue to have their curiosity sparked about space and the Perseverance rover with investigations about Mars this week. The pupils carried out an experiment to find out what affects the size of craters made by meteorites on Mars, looking at the size and mass of the ‘meteorites’ as well as the height…
In our science lesson this week, we made light graphs/diagrams. We set up a torch and had a mirror, then put a piece of paper underneath. Next, we marked out the location of the light and the mirror, and also marked the direction on which the light travelled with an “x”. Then we joined the…
This week in Phase time, we had the pleasure of being joined by Mr Jason Alexander, who is the founder of Rubbish Walks, which is based in Ipswich. It has a group of volunteers nicknamed ‘The Wombles’, who go on litter picks and organise beach cleans. Jason showed Phase 3 the importance of always putting litter…
