Our Wonderful Inquiry Work
Our Wonderful Inquiry Work
Steve Irwin
This week, we have explored community and belonging through RE and looked at how Muslims are welcomed into their faith. We have explored a mosque and also the Aqiqah ceremony which is a celebration that takes place when a new baby is born and welcomed into the Muslim faith.
Lewis Hamilton
This week in Lewis Hamilton Class, we have begun our inquiry this term as Scientists by looking at sound and how it is made. The children have enjoyed exploring how the different parts of our Ears perform different functions to help our brain hear the vibrations that travel through the air. They worked hard to draw diagrams to demonstrate pitch and have researched sound proofing to plan their own sound installation experiment. Lewis Hamilton Class also wanted to take this opportunity to share how hard they have worked writing a diary entry from the perspective of a Roman soldier. Although this was on the last few days of Term 4, they still asked to share this on our newsletter contribution!

Reminder to check key events
Please remember to check our Key Events Calendar which was sent for Module 5. We have some exciting events coming up to enjoy in school. Letters detailing events, such as the Kings and Queens Day for the King's Coronation, will be sent separately to provide further information.
Please let us know if you are any experiencing any problems in accessing My Child At School at all and the office will be able to assist you with this.
Well-being Group
This week, Miss Heard and the Well-being Group met to discuss the summer terms. We are busily working on a brand new display to enter into the 'Sun Safe Schools' competition, which will show us all some reminders of how to keep safe and look after ourselves in the warmer weather.
We will shortly be sharing details of our Sun Safe School Policy with parents, carers and pupils and we hope to become an accredited school by the end of the module.
Thank you to the pupils for their hard work in preparing this display. We look forward to sharing our assembly with the rest of the school soon!
Our Well-being group were also really enthusiastic that all children in the school had access to Arlo for their well-being and so we have implemented a weekly timetable for him to visit classrooms.
