New teachers in Year 3!

Year 3 have been treated to sessions with new teachers this morning – all of whom look rather familiar… Our awesome Year 6 students have been working really hard to plan lessons for other classes in the school.

Enrichment: Forest School

We worked in groups to put up a tent and tarpaulin; produced some art using our own homemade paints; and had sticky cleaver fights.

Year 6: Science videos in the sun ☀️

Year 6 filmed four mini videos based on mutations, natural selection, evolution and inheritance. We then played them back in groups and decided which masterpiece linked with which word.
