Dodging 21.10.24
This half term, we have been learning how to dodge in P.E. We have been thinking about our speed and how we can change directions to dodge each other. Today, we were applying the dodging skills that we have learned by playing some team games with our friends.

Well done to our wow wall superstars this week for super work in Maths and Science.
Tropical World 18.10.24
We had a great day today at Tropical World to explore our science topic of 'Living Things and their Habitats'.
We started our day by taking part in a habitats workshop. We learned about all of the different types of habitats and the animals that live in them. We discussed how different animals are suited to their habitat and we were even able to explore the habitat woodland. We worked together to look for different plants and animals that live in the woods.
In the afternoon, we explored the different habitats within Tropical World. We noticed that some of the habitats were very hot and we observed how the animals were suited to the hot temperature. Some of our favourite animals were the meerkats and the cotton-top tamarins.

The Holy Rosary 30.09.24
October is the month of the Holy Rosary prayer. Today, we learned about the Holy Rosary prayer and how to use the Rosary beads. We each had time individually with the Rosary beads to have some time to reflect and practise the prayer. Throughout October, we will be completing the Mark 10 Mission 'Rosary Challenge' where we will be praying a decade of the Rosary everyday.

Non-chronological Reports 19.09.24
This week, we have been writing our own non-chronological reports all about London. We have been using a range of different key features including headings, subheadings and rhetorical questions. We have also used lots of different conjunctions to make our sentences longer and more interesting.
The Story of Abraham 16.09.24
This half term, we are learning all about the 'Chosen People' in R.E. The first person we have learned about is Abraham. Today, we worked in groups to retell the story of Abraham and perform it to the rest of the class. When we were retelling the story, we thought about what this story tells us about God and how Abraham showed his faith in God.

In our Science lesson today, we learned all about bulbs. We started by discussing what a bulb is and how we plant a bulb. We then went into the garden and planted our own daffodil bulbs. We are going to observe our bulbs throughout the year and record the changes as they grow into daffodils. We can't wait to watch them grow!
