Metheringham Primary School

Foundation Stage  In computing, the Reception children have been giving directions to a robot! Building on their direction language the children were able to move the Bee-bot from a starting point to a finishing point.  

Key Stage One Key Stage One have been making the most of the sunshine this week! Alongside enjoying the warm weather, they’ve been working hard on their end-of-year assessments, where so many of our school values have truly shone through. In spelling and phonics, the children have been learning new spelling rules and using their creativity to invent funny sentences that showcase their growing skills. 

Lower Key Stage Two This week in LKS2, we have been incredibly proud of our pupils for showing outstanding determination and resilience during their end-of-year assessments. Their brilliant attitudes and hard work have really shone through—well done, everyone! In Science, we’ve been exploring how shadows change throughout the day and learning about the importance of sun safety.   In Geography, we’ve been developing our map-reading skills by studying Ordnance Survey maps and learning how to interpret the different symbols used. Our Music lessons have been full of rhythm and creativity! Year 3 have continued their exciting Djembe drumming, experimenting with different sound effects, while Year 4 are making fantastic progress in their recorder lessons. In PE, we absolutely love our swimming lessons and making the most of every opportunity to build our confidence and skills in the water. 

Well done to everyone for a brilliant week of learning and enthusiasm! 

Upper Key Stage Two As the end of term edges ever closer, the Woodpeckers - Year 5/6 are showing no signs of slowing down! Our week has been jam-packed with learning, rehearsals, and plenty of fun — and we've loved every minute.  In history, our fascination with the Shang Dynasty continues to grow. This week, we explored what life was like in ancient China and delved into the structure of their society. The children have been captivated by how different — and sometimes similar — it was to our lives today.   All this, while fitting in rehearsals for our end-of-term performance, swimming sessions, garden party preparations, and a host of other enriching activities. It's no small feat — but upper key stage two are taking it all in their stride, showing resilience, enthusiasm and teamwork every step of the way.

Well done, UKS2 — another fantastic week!
