Year 3 Dinosaurs






During the topic of Dinosaurs the year 3 children made dinosaurs with parts of it that moved. This was part of our DT topic on pneumatics. We really enjoyed making them. Here are a couple of the dinosaurs from 3R and 3S.

Year 3 Creative Day.






On Creative day year 3 were designing their own inventions to help them with an everyday problem, for example always waking up late. They worked in groups to come up with an invention that would solve the problem. All the year 3's enjoyed making their inventions. Here are a few pictures of the different inventions.

Multi-Cultural Week

This week is Multi-Cultural week at school

Year 3 are learning about China.
Year 4 are learning about India.

It's been an exciting week so far, with Year 3 and 5, departing to their countries from the UK on planes, they even made passports and had to have security checks! There's been food tasting and lots of lovely art work.

We will add some pictures soon.

Our last day of activities at Kingswood







We have faced our fears caving, abseiling and climbing on the Leap of Faith (even the teachers!) Tonight we are collecting our souvenirs and starting the challenge of packing to come home - see you soon!

Kingswood Wednesday Night madness!





We braved the windy beach for a beachcomber competition, sang songs around the bonfire and then had a mad five minutes dressing up!

Venture Week - Wednesday








Today was so much fun as we got to be evacuees in World War II. We were evacuated to the countryside on a steam train. When we arrived the locals decided if we could stay with them - some of us were chosen as we were fit and stong to work on the land, but some of us didn't get anywhere to live!

We learnt about Air Raid Precautions, tried on gas masks, watered the garden and looked after the vegetables and we even made our OWN LUNCH!!

We hope you like our photos.
