Reflection in nature
Continuing their learning of light, Year 3 looked at reflections made by nature. The children examined pictures of landscapes which had beautiful reflections in clear and still water. They then designed their own reflective landscapes using watercolour pencils. We had some lovely scenic pictures. Well done Year 3.
Resilience in Year 6
Year 6 had a visit from the school nursing team this afternoon, to talk about resilience. The informative session educated the children about the effects of drugs, smoking and alcohol and how best to handle peer pressure. The children took it in turns to wear beer googles to get a real feel for what negative effects alcohol has on co-ordination. Thank you to the nursing team from all of Year 6.
We Love Food!
Today, we had a ‘Fairy Tale Menu’ today celebrate Valentines Day. The children enjoyed Pizza Pinwheels, Mac and Cheese, Curly Fries and Ice Cream. Thank you to our wonderful staff from Aspens.

Tricks of light
Year 3 were Scientists this afternoon, looking at how light reflects and travels. They made their own periscopes using cereal boxes and mirrors and were absolutely amazed at how they could use them to see around corners and over and under things. The children even went into Year 6, where they saw Mrs MacDonald, and were keen to explain how their periscopes work. What great enthusiasm and enjoyment for Science Year 3!
Recipe for a Good Friend
Year 2 had a great afternoon discussing friendships. Using their knowledge of instructions, they came up with a recipe for making a good friend. A handful of kindness, a spoonful of sharing and a sprinkle of helpfulness were some of the ingredients mentioned. Well done Year 2, we think you perfected the recipe.

Anderson Shelters
As part of our WWII topic, Year 6 have been learning about how Anderson Shelters were used to protect families from air raids. This afternoon, the children started the process of constructing individual shelters in a fun Design & Technology lesson. There was a lot of sawing, gluing and precision involved. Amazing effort from all the children, we cannot wait to see the final structures.
