Year 3 - Forest School - Week 10

Today was the final session for this group of Year 3’s. The sun was shining on us and the children made the most of using the site. We had climbing and a bit of limbo, imaginative games and an Easter egg hunt. We made s’mores, drank hot chocolate and shared our favourite memories from our time at forest school. These included; forest bathing, watching the fires, making tents, making s’mores and everything! I’m so pleased you’ve had such a great time Year 3.

Well done Year 3!

 A huge congratulations to our Sit Down Volleyball team. These children worked so well together and put in maximum effort. The group managed to win the tournament and will now be representing Havering in the London Youth Games! You should all be so proud!

Malta's Maths Fun in the Sun

Today the children of Malta Class were exploring capacity. Some children were filling containers and reading the amount in ml, while others were comparing the amount of water the different containers would hold. Who said "Maths is boring"? Not us!

World Maths Day

 

To celebrate World Maths Day, Year 6 took their learning outside. We have been learning about angles so for today's lesson they had to find angles in nature and then measure them. It was really lovely to see them applying what they have learnt in the classroom to real life situations. 

They then had to make rubbings of the leaves that they found and measure the angles on them.

Science Week in Year Three!

This year's theme for Science Week was Growth - something our children do a lot of! In class, we spent time looking at lifecycles, including the stages of being a human. Then, we measured the children and tried to guess who would be the tallest. We can't wait to measure them again in a month and see the difference!

Our year threes enthusiastically participated in the poster competition and we are very proud of the effort they put in. 

After lunch, we joined schools around the country in a special live video on space. The students got to choose the speed of a satellite, which satellite was launched and communicate with the presenter in a Q and A!

Well done to all our clever scientists!
