There is so much going on in school at the moment. With trips to the cinema, visits from our MP and exciting science experiments, the children are loving life and learning.
Children in Tintern and Turvey have been exploring wedding celebrations as part of their 'Let's Celebrate' topic. They have dressed up in wedding clothing, made a wedding cake to use for role play and even decorated a wedding car outside. The children have also learnt about wedding traditions from around the world.
"It was fun to throw confetti like a real wedding."
"I got to wear a wedding dress so I'm a bride."
"Some people do different things for weddings like jump over a broom or smash the plates up."
Year 3/4 have been learning about states of matter in science. Changing states from solid to liquid to gas. They had fun making their own ice cream!
In years 1 and 2 they have been learning about diary entries in English this week. They have been pretending to be Florence Nightingale and have written a diary entry about what it was like in hospitals in the past. Faith enjoyed her learning so much that she went home and made her own diary about her day!
Last week, KS1 and Foundation went to the cinema to see Garfield. Next week KS2 will be going too! For some children, this was the first time they had ever been on a coach or to the cinema! They loved it and the school and staff received so many compliments about pupil behaviour and organisation! Well done to everyone involved.
In year 5/6 DT lessons, the children have been learning all about chocolate. Here is Sahira's and Naveena's DT work, they learnt about how cocoa is grown and produced and have created a diagram that shows the stages of production.
