The children have been learning about traditional Mexican flavours in design and technology and put together a menu for parents. A huge thank you to everyone who came, we hope that you enjoyed the afternoon.

Y6 Bikeability

Year 6 have had the opportunity this week to take part in Bikeability, a national scheme, which aims to teach children road safety when out on their bikes.
It has been great to see so many children sign up for this and take to the roads with specialist instructors.

Y6 Forest Schools

Year 6 have been patiently waiting for their forest school slot for this academic year, and now the weather is picking up, they are really enjoying some forest school activities, making dens, whittling wood and learning all about nature. It is lovely to see them enjoying the outdoors.

MP Visit – Shaun Davies

We would like to say a huge thank you to Shaun Davies, our local MP for Telford, for taking the time to come and visit us in school today. As a follow up from visiting parliament, we were able to meet with Shaun and ask questions about his role in parliament.

Shaun also gifted the school with a new book for the library, titled ‘If I Ran The Country’, which will be placed in the library in the new academic year.

KS2 Girls – T&W Cricket Tournament

 

A massive well done to the KS2 girls who competed in the T&W cricket tournament held at Arscott Cricket Club. They played through rain, wind and sun but no matter the weather they demonstrated fantastic, positive attitudes throughout. They had won 2, drew 1 and lost 1 until the weather finally put a stop to the competition.

Burglar Alarms

Year 6 have been investigating electricity in science this week and today were set the challenge of making a burglar alarm for Miss Saville’s house. We investigated making our own switches by using insulators and conductors, which broke and connected our circuit, allowing the buzzer to sound when the door was opened.

Watch the video of our burglar alarm in action on a door!
