This week in art middle school have created their own jewellery inspired by the crafts from mesolithic people. They began by moulding beads in various shapes out of clay and creating holes in them. Once they were dry, the children used paints to mix into colours to decorate their beads. We are…

Following on from their observational drawings of flowers for Mothering Sunday, the children have been trying to recreate flowers using cutting and folding paper techniques. They have begun to show some great creativity!

This week we have been learning about the true meaning of Easter.

We discussed how we celebrate Easter with our families at home and how we usually visit Church together (sadly we cannot this year). We learnt the reason behind giving chocolate eggs to celebrate Easter is that the eggs represent…

Thanks also to all the parents who have provided outdoor and indoor PE kits for the very changeable…

In history this week, middle school learned about the palaeolithic era. We learned about how Britain was different during the ice age in many ways, from the way of life to the creatures! During our art we enjoyed creating our own paintings inspired by the cave art from the palaeolithic era -…
