Class 4 were inspired by taking part in the #BigSchoolsBirdwatch @rspb.bsky.social and completed some beautiful bird sketches! Some children feel sketching and art helps them to feel calm. #childrensmentalhealthweek #ArtSTC #ScienceSTC #CitizenScienctists

Class 6 have been meticulously planning their Independent Applications of a Tale of Fear. Lots of us are just ‘shaking hands’ with the model text and considering different eras, tenses and tones that we could write our stories in. Can’t wait for the final result 🤩 @piecorbett.bsky.social #T4W

In Art today, Class 2 explored turning 2D paper into 3D shapes through folding, cutting, tearing and twisting. A great skill to learn and practise as we prepare to make 3D bird sculptures after half term. @accessart.bsky.social #artstc #lovestc @artscouncilengland.bsky.social

Class 4 have persevered to solve a tricky Maths problem today - how many shapes (that aren’t rectangles) can you draw with a perimeter of 20cm? It was tricky but all of these children found at least one solution! 👏

This week, Class 2 have kicked off their Courageous Advocacy project by tackling water waste in school! After learning from Mrs Baker how much we spend on water, they inspected our taps and created reminder posters to help everyone turn them off. A brilliant start, Class 2! #courageousadvocacy

As part of DT, Class 5 have been investigating how to strengthen shapes. We found out that diagonals are very useful to make a square more rigid.

Class 2 children have been smashing maths this week! Exploring equal & unequal groups, using the stem sentence “there are … groups of …” and linking it to repeated addition. Great thinking all round! #ks1stc #mathstc @ncetm.bsky.social

Class 6 have been ranking the effectiveness of different materials that could be used for an air-raid shelter. We were inspired by ‘Goodnight Mister Tom’ and the characters putting the Anderson shelter up to think about what it would be like inside. #ScienceSTC @marymyatt.bsky.social
