Visit to QMC
On Monday 25th November, we visited QMC to do some exciting experiments linked to our topic, materials. The children had lots of fun sorting materials for different uses, exploring absorbancy and insuluation during this day. Thank you to our parent helpers for helping this trip to happen!
Building beds for Polar the Titanic bear!
Titanic morning!
Journey to Antarctica
Trip to Sea City Museum
On 29th November, the children in Year 2 visited Sea City Museum in Southampton to find out more about the Titanic. They took part in a workshop where they did a demonstration to explain why the Titanic sunk, matched smells to different parts of the Titanic, looked at artefacts from the time of the Titanic and chose who should get on a lifeboat.
They also had the opportunity to explore the Titanic exhibition and take part in some of the hands-on activities.
Trip to Forest School!
The children went to forest school to consolidate their learning in Science and Design & Technology. Their Science topic is materials and they have been learning to make strong and stable structures in Design & Technology. The children were challenged to make mini adventure playgrounds that were strong and stable. They explained the materials they chose to use and how they ensured it was strong and stable. They had great fun, despite the mud!

House Teams TT Rockstars Battle
Year 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 have been using TT Rockstars this year to learn and practice their times tables. They were excited to organise a TT Rockstars House Team battle before the end of the term, so we have arranged this for next week. From 9.00am Monday morning next week, until 3.00pm on Thursday, the children can collect points for their house teams by playing on TT Rockstars. The team with the most points will have an extra break on Friday afternoon to celebrate.
The children will have access at school to play TT Rockstars at various points during the day next week, but they may also collect points by playing at home too. The competition will be open each day between the house of 7.30am and 7.30pm, once the competition starts on Monday, so please feel free to encourage your child to have a go at home too.
We will let you know how we get on, and good luck to all the house teams!
