The children in Reception have really enjoyed engaging in small world space adventures, using phrases like ‘5,4,3,2,1, lift off!!’ and ‘ Look out, look out the rocket ship is coming!’ They have also created their own stories, such as one child’s figure climbed the tower to be able to communicate with them.

The children have continued their work on Seasonal Change in science this week, with a focus of winter. The children considered what could be observed with the weather and temperature and what happens in these seasons. They then explored how ice and snow are formed. They created their own crystals and then made 'snow', which was great fun!

Year 1 have been busy investigating leaf colour this week, as part of their topic 'Changing Seasons'. The children collected leaves, made predictions about what colours there would be in them and then tested them using water. They then also explored how colour moves and changes using felt tip pens and water on filter paper.

We have been enjoying role play in our very own Space Station, using our imaginations as we explore Space.

This week's topic of Space has inspired lots of imaginative play during Continuous Provision.

Science and the seasons! ☀️❄️🌿🍂🌻 The children have been exploring their new topic about the changes of the seasons in science this week. Today, the children have been sorting clothes to match the weather and the seasons.

Year 1 have been classifying animals based on what they eat this week. They were able to identify herbivores, omnivores and carnivores.

In Year 1 science this week, the children were challenged to order sounds from loudest to quietest before considering how they might group different animals. The children worked collaboratively at first, as a whole class, before working with their partners to decide their own sorting criteria's.

Y5 have enjoyed researching and learning about levers, pulleys and gears in science today.

Year 4 showed fantastic curiosity in their very first Digestive System lesson where they explored the journey of food from the mouth to the intestines through a hands-on investigation.

In Science this week, Year 1 children have continued their topic on humans. This week, the children explored their senses and put this to the test in an investigation based on taste without smell!

In science the year 2 children have been looking around the school grounds for micro-habitats. We went into the forest school and looked under the logs. We found lots of different creepy crawlies. Some of the children were feeling brave enough to hold some of them.

In Science this week, Year 1 have started their new topic of animals including humans. This week they explored matching body parts and names and then linking them to the senses.
