This week in ART we have been putting the finishing touches to our dragon eyes. We spent time choosing which colour we thought would look best and then spent an afternoon painting them. We are all happy and proud of what we have created.
In our 2CanLearn session on Thursday in Year 4 we used clay to make dragon eyes. Here's some of our finished work. We're going to paint them next week.
In the Seals music lessons this term we've been listening to disco music! This week, we played with different percussion instruments and then recorded all we learnt. Here is Mae's work.
In Art, Anna and Anandavalli have been creating a landscape on fabric using acrylic paint. They have experimented with different hues, tints and dilutions. The girls have started using thread to add some textural marks.
In computing this week we have focused on online safety. Making sure children know when to report such things as cyber-bullying and to make sure they are an upstander, looking after not only themselves but friends as well.
This week the Nightingales have been on their residential trip to Grafham Water and participated in lots of fun activities, including climbing, high ropes and bike rides.
On Wednesday, we went on a trip to Bosworth Battlefield. We had a brilliant introduction to our new History topic of the Tudors. We meet the Bosworth Solider and he taught us how to stand and ‘strike’ just as the Tudors did during the Battle of Bosworth. It was a fantastic day of immersive history learning!
In Art, Year 3 explored how an artist combined their media. Anna, Zayden, Owen and Hugo produced fantastic double page spreads, showcasing their thoughts, feelings and observations of Alice Kettle's work.

This week in Art we started our new Art project. Molly and Hugo have created a superb double-paged spread about Ancient Egypt. They researched particular elements and sketched pictures to help illustrate it.
