Thank you for your continued support, the informal feedback we receive from you has been overwhelmingly positive, and it means a great deal to our whole team.

The children continue to thrive at Vauxhall Primary School. Each Friday, we celebrate their achievements during our achievement assemblies, recognising pupils who have demonstrated our school values. Many children are also celebrated individually or as groups during class time for their hard work and progress.

Our staff team also deserve recognition. Each week, they receive well-deserved 'Shout-Outs' in acknowledgement of their continued hard work and dedication to your children's learning and wellbeing.

Have a relaxing weekend, and we hope you enjoy this week's edition.

This week, the children explored drawing shells in the sketchbooks they created. They were encouraged to look closely and take their time, practising “slow looking” as they talked about what they could see while drawing. The children experimented with a range of materials, including handwriting pens, crayons, pencils and oil pastels, paying close attention to the shapes, patterns and details of the shells.

This week, Year 3 have been learning about scientific predictions. We talked about what a prediction is and looked at some simple science experiments.

The children then worked in pairs to predict whether an aeroplane made from card or paper would fly the furthest. They made their own aeroplanes, tested them and measured how far they travelled.

The children enjoyed comparing the results and explaining why they had made their predictions. They used what they already knew about materials, weight and how aeroplanes fly to help explain their ideas.

It was great to see the children having fun, testing their ideas and learning from the results!
