Ice- cream!

Since returning to school we have all been working very hard to keep everyone safe by staying in our pods, keeping our 1 metre distance from others, and cleaning/sanitising our hands regularly !

Ms Buckley surprised us with ice-creams for all our hard work!

Creative Writing

Rang a 4 are very talented writers! We have been working on our creative writing. Last week the boys drew six different shapes, from these different shapes they created characters. They made a character profile for each, and decided on their character's personality, likes, dislikes and their background story. They then wrote amazing stories based on these characters!

Our Snowmen Pinch Pots

The boys learned all about Spain in S.E.S.E !

They did projects on different aspects of Spain such as Spanish food, Spanish culture, famous landmarks, famous Spanish people and the history of Spain. The boys were super at presenting their projects to the class.
