Take a look at our latest news happening in school at the moment.
During our French lessons in KS2, we have been celebrating the European Day of Languages. It’s officially held on the 26th September each year and it helps to raise awareness of the huge diversity of languages spoken all over the world and also to promote language learning.
In Year 3, we decorated bunting saying “hello” in lots of different languages.
In Year 4, we made maps naming as many different languages as we could.
In Year 5 we had a quiz to check our knowledge about European languages
In Year 6 we found out which countries have French, English, German or Italian as their official languages and played a guessing game to see how many languages we could recognise from hearing conversations. Very tricky!
Even our Reception class learnt a song in French to celebrate!
We made posters for our classroom doors and listened to songs sung in many different languages.
We had a lot of fun and there is still so much more to learn – we can’t wait for next September 26th!

Thank you so much to everyone that came in on Saturday to transform our Wildlife Area.
Today, Year 4 had great fun learning about Roman roads. We then made our own model roads carefully layering different materials.
This week, Year 5 have been using classification keys to identify the trees on the playground, the quad and the Year 1 garden. As well as this, they have been researching some new trees and plants that they would like to grow and plant in school.
This week, Year 6 have started our Nature Explorers project by identifying the trees that we have on our school site. They used classification pictures and made a tally of the trees they found. After that, they looked online to make a wish list of the trees and plants that they would like in school and even had some ideas of where they could go.
The Reception class have had a great start to their first term.
