Bubble painting
Our Nursery children had lots of fun this week creating bubble paintings. They had to blow through a straw into a mixture of paint and washing up liquid to make the colourful pictures. Look at the wonderful bubble pictures they made!
Investigating the force of friction
We really enjoyed investigating which surface caused the greatest friction on the wheels of our car. We elevated our ramp to see how much friction was created on different surfaces. Carpet is soft, thick and bumpy so we predicted that this would cause most friction. We were right!
Y5 Prayer &Liturgy
Our theme for Prayer and Liturgy this week was ‘Friendship’. Our leaders chose a reading from John 15: 15 and made paper hearts to remind us to show love to one

Y6 Multi-skills
The cold January weather didn’t stop Y6 enjoying an energetic Multi-skills session outside with Dan. They have been working on attacking and invading ball games and learning how to defend.

Y5 launched their ‘Mountains topic’ by making concept maps. They wrote what they already know about mountains then did some research and added facts.⛰
Word detectives
Year 2 have been word detectives today. They have been learning to use dictionaries to help them improve their spelling when writing. They had great fun finding given words then transferring them into their personal dictionaries.
Year 3 and 4 Athletics Festival
Our Year 3 and 4 children were excellent role models at the Whitehaven Athletics Festival today. We were very proud of their behaviour and their athletic performance. We await the results, but either way, we had a great time. Thanks to Mr Stead for joining us today.
Year 4 Tree Planting

Nursery’s Elf and Fairy day
Nursery had an Elf and Fairy party today where the children dressed up and had a party! We played party games like musical bumps and statues in the hall and danced. We also had some party food. At the end of the party we even had a surprise visit off Santa! What a fun packed morning!
The Stickman
After reading the story of the Stickman the children made their own Stickmen and ladies. They added collage materials and eyes to make the Stickmen.
The naughty elf
The Naughty elf has been up to all sorts of mischief in Nursery this week. He even managed to tie Mrs Bear up in toilet roll!
