Cool to be Kind week:   Friday 23^rd February was the last day of Cool to be Kind week, which was a great success. Children were even kinder and more helpful than usual and achieved stickers for their actions. Well done everyone!

 

Bikeability:      5JK were excited to begin their Bikeability sessions on Wednesday 21^st February. They were taught about how to stay safe when riding a bike by two of the instructors and could identify faults that would make a bike unsafe to ride, such as a worn tyre. The class are really looking forward to their session next week. 

 

Thinktank Trip: On Wednesday 21^st February, Year 3 visited the Thinktank science museum in Birmingham. We visited the many fascinating exhibits, where we saw and learned about skeletons of dinosaurs, explored how our body works and were able to see a Spitfire aircraft and find out how it was built and used during the Second World War. The highlight of our day was the 'Luminous Light' show, where we explored what objects are sources of light and had fun telling stories using shadows. Using what they have learned in our science lessons this year, the children could give some fantastic explanations about how light travels. We all had a brilliant time and learned lots of new and interesting scientific facts!

 

Lego Fun:        On Tuesday 20^th February, we welcomed parents with their children into school for our third after school Lego event. There were lots of interesting Lego creations and we would like to thank all of the families who have participated so far. Look out for more events coming soon.
