Wellbeing Wednesday (Aspirations)
The children enjoyed a careers day where they learnt about a range of different careers, how to achieve these as well as gender stereotypes about different careers. The children participated in a range of workshops including: football with Notts County Football Club, an artist workshop, woodwork, cooking and a Q + A session with a nurse. The day was very successful and helped to raise children's aspirations.
Red Nose Day
We have enjoyed wearing red and non-uniform. Here are some of our favourite jokes!

Science Week
The theme for Science Week this year is 'we are all connected.' The children have completed several Science activities this week including: a CSI biometrics workshop, they used Cheerios to represent the particles in solids, liquids and gases and took part in a melting chocolate experiment!
The children practised their tracing and printing skills to create a repetitive background inspired by Egyptian hieroglyphics depicting daily life.
WORLD BOOK DAY- Thursday 2nd March 2023
We have had a super time celebrating all things BOOKS and Reading!
We took part in a WBD Quiz with over 150,000 other children!
We visited the ELS Library Van and chose some books for our class reading area.
We have enjoyed looking at each other's amazing and creative costumes!
Happy World Book Day and Happy Reading!
Week Two
On Tuesday afternoon we learnt about Bulgaria in our EAL afternoon. The children created a piece of artwork, inspired by Vladimir Dimitrov. They created a piece of printing including a bold, colourful repetitive pattern.
Week One
We have had a great start to the half term! We spent our first English lesson pretending to be Howard Carter and even discovered our own Tutankhamun tomb! We spoke about how Howard Carter might have felt at this point and will use this in our English lessons to support with writing our own newspaper report.
We have also started working with Mrs Dowse for our Art curriculum driver. This week we practised drawing portraits and experimented with hue, tint and shade.
