Cross Country
Tue 28 Mar 2023Congratulations to everyone who took part in the Cross Country event on Saturday at Astley Park. The enthusiasm, excitement and team spirit was infectious, despite the muddy conditions. There were determined faces at the start, perseverance round the course was obvious (even though some trainers were left behind!) and proud moments at the finish line, when everyone received their medals. Well done to our placed winner in a heat too!
Thank you to all the families who supported and children who took part, Mrs. Clements and I were so proud of you all.

Art and Technology combine in Elm Class
Tue 28 Mar 2023We had a fantastic time with Ian when he came to teach us lots of new skills with Sketches for Schools. We learned how to use the opacity tool and use pictures to trace.
We have been looking at trees in Art and we are going to be looking at the work of Gustav Klimt, so we had a go at drawing fantastic trees and imaginary landscapes.
I know you will love our results, and we do too!

Great Big Schools Clean Up
Mon 27 Mar 2023Children from across the school have been taking part in the Great Big Schools Clean Up, giving up their lunchtime to litter pick around school. Children from EYFS to year 6 also litter picked in the local community last Friday. We have been blown away by their enthusiasm and the number of children who have been inspired to litter pick outside of school! As they have been telling us - every piece of litter picked up is one less that can harm wildlife.

L.S.Lowry Artwork in Cedar Class
Fri 24 Mar 2023This term, we have been learning about the artist L.S.Lowry and we have been using his artwork to inspire ours. We have studied some of his paintings using viewfinders to look carefully at the buildings and people in them. We had fun taking photographs of ourselves in an L.S Lowry pose (matchstick person). Then we edited our photos and used them in our own industrial pictures, which we created with Danny, the artist from the Lowry. Some budding artists here.
