Year 1 enjoyed learning about mass in Power Maths. The children enjoyed using real objects to compare weight. #PowerMaths #MakingLinks #Reflective
Year 3 explored magnetism this afternoon. They discovered objects around the classroom that were magnetic and investigated what happens when magnets attract and repel. #fmscience #courageous #enthusiasm
Chestnut Class have been reading the story 'Tico Tango'. This week they have made word mats to help when they are writing up the story. They drew pictures to help clarify words and brilliant adjectives. #ticotango
As part of their #PSHCE learning, 2VR have been discussing good and bad secrets and how they make us feel. #Makinglinks #empathy #oracy #confidence
Well done to Class 6VV who have won this week’s best class attendance #fmattendance #celebrate

Year 1 are looking at Christian artefacts and learning about how they worship #fmre #fmyear1 #curiosity
3SS LOVED their Science experiment. We tested different surfaces which include sand, grass, road and carpet to see the effects of friction on them. Can you guess which surface had the most friction? 🤔
In the next Art lesson, 3SS looked at the artists Elaine Goodwin and Pietro Cavallini in depth. We discussed what their mosaics represented, shapes, lines, colours used etc. The children will use this key knowledge to help them plan and create their own mosaic.
3SS started their Art project where they will be creating their own Roman mosaic. In the first lesson, the children looked at what a mosaic is, how a mosaic is made and why Romans made them. Did you know the tiny gems used in mosaics are called tesserae? 🙂🔷⬛️
3SS have learnt how to use the grid method to multiply a 2 digit number by a 1 digit number, with exchange. The children answered a range of questions from fluency, reasoning and problem solving and they presented this beautifully in their books! ✖️
Saying thank you to our site manager Amiee for her hard work preparing for the health and safety audit!

During Castle Character time, scholars have been learning about the history and care of Afro textured hair and putting to use their head wrapping skills.
The headwraps are a symbolic expression of identity and representation of the culture and heritage of the African continent.
2VR have been exploring different seeds in #science. They have all dissected their own seed and correctly identified the parts of a seed. #curiosity #makinglinks #investigation
