Loudmouth Workshop

Year 5 and 6 were invited to a workshop with Loudmouth today, a theatre in education company, who taught us all about how to stay safe online. We covered lots of different scenarios with the team who taught us about misinformation, disinformation and how to spot these online. We also went over what to do if we see something online that upsets us, and who we can discuss this with.

Neurodiversity Celebration Week Y6

Neurodiversity Celebration Week aims to bring about worldwide neurodiversity acceptance, equality and inclusion in schools and workplaces. In Y6, we spoke about what people who have neurodiversity may find difficult. We also talked about how best to support children in our classroom. We discussed how all our brains are different and we all have strengths, things we find more difficult and preferences to learning.

France Residential Year 6

Year 6 have had a fantastic 4 days in France. We have had a very cultured visit, sight seeing around Amiens, Montdidier and Pierrefonds. The children have also been practicing their French skills, visiting shops and bakeries around the town. We were really impressed with how the children immersed themselves into the French culture – trying new things (including frog’s legs and snails) and expanding their language skills. A hugely enjoyable visit that we look forward to hosting again next year.

EKO Art Project Y6

At the beginning of the year, Y6 had the opportunity to visit Weston Park for a day working with EKO (Educating Kids Outdoors) as part of a creative arts project in connection with the Rose Patterson art gallery. The funding obtained from the Telford and Wrekin arts society allowed 5 schools to have this opportunity, and we were lucky enough to be chosen.

We spent the day making sculptures inspired by Salvador Dali’s paintings of dream-like elephants. We looked at the local bird life in Telford and then made our own sculptures in the abstract style of Dali, which were then displayed as part of the Rose Patterson Art Gallery ‘Halls Young Artist’ competition (on exhibition at Weston Park). There were 240 birds altogether that have delighted many members of the public since their creation! Well done to all involved in this project!

This week is Children’s Mental Health Week and in year 6 we have spoken about belonging and what this means. We made a mosaic by each producing a square that represents us and then putting these all together to show that we belong.

Chess Competition

On Thursday of week 2, eight year 6 children attended the Shropshire schools Junior Chess championship, bidding for a place in the National Junior chess championship. The room was full of seasoned players and Shropshire’s own individual champion. Our team, all competing for the first time, did brilliantly, every played secured a win and Captain Webb narrowly missed out of the podium by half a point, finishing in an admirable 4^th place out of 8. Well done to team members, Lukas, Lochlan, Harry, Lutful, Geroge, Mason, Iosif and Mathew.
