Grasshoppers rounded off their World War II topic at the Bluebell Railway this week. Wearing ID tags, they boarded the train from Sheffield Park to imagine life as evacuees. They met a real evacuee, heard wartime memories from men who grew up during the war, sheltered during a simulated air raid, measured rations and wrote postcards home with pen and ink. A memorable day bringing history to life.

Dragonfly Class have been learning all about the Ancient Egyptians. They learnt about the fascinating process of mummification and had the opportunity to create their very own mummified tomatoes. 🍅

Before half term, we will unwrap our mummified tomatoes to see what they look like after the mummification process. We can’t wait to see the results!

What an exciting assembly! 🦫

Yesterday, we welcomed a visitor who taught us all about the important conservation work being carried out to protect beavers in our local area.

We learned how they were relocated from Scotland to help them thrive in the wild and explored ways we can help care for and protect them.

The children were thrilled to hear that Chris Packham is involved in the project, and we're even more excited that when we visit the site in the spring, we'll have the chance to meet him too!

Ladybirds and Caterpillars have been learning about what it was like to live in a castle. We have explored why castles were built and how they were designed and built to protect their inhabitants. The children made their own motte and bailey castles, working collaboratively in small groups with their friends.

On Monday 21st September, we welcomed organisers and musicians from the Fletching Music & Arts Fest for a music-filled assembly. Afterwards, our KS2 children took part in a workshop where they composed and performed their very own mini opera, accompanied by cello and piano.

It was a wonderful opportunity to make music with talented musicians who had recently performed in Fletching village as part of the festival. Thank you for visiting us and inspiring our pupils with your passion for music! 🎶
