In Art, KS1 have been studying the Artist, Kenojuak Ashevak. They looked at the shapes she used in her Enchanted Owl painting and then created their own owl sculpture using recycled materials.
EYFS pupils have been working in groups to make boats just like the boy in Lost and Found. In the story he used his boat to return the penguin to the South Pole. As the children rowed their boats they heard the sound of a storm and described how big the waves were - ‘as giant as a beanstalk’ ‘enormous like a dinosaur’.
This week KS2 pupils have been learning about mono-printing and experimenting with their own art designs.
Yesterday we had a lovely assembly with Reverend Nicki, all about looking back and reflecting on 2022 and looking forward to new beginnings in 2023. She also provided each child with chalk and a blessing that they can write on their doorsteps to bless their house and all who enter it this year.
KS1 have been using the iPads to improve their maths fluency on TTRS and 1 minute maths . They have enjoyed trying to beat their previous score.
Here are our stars of the week, Amira, Forrest and Tyler! Well done everyone!

This week EYFS pupils have started a new topic - Space. To begin with they have concentrated on our own planet, Earth. They will be creating a model of the solar system, yesterday they made a model of the Earth. Children learned the terms North and South pole, Equator and Earth. They then painted a lantern blue, added land and then the polar regions. Reception then wrote some labels and these were then added.
Yesterday afternoon KS1 were exploring clay and making pebbles in preparation for creating their sculptures.
This week KS2 have been looking at the artist Andy Warhol. They chose a picture to engrave into polystyrene, covered it in paint and then printed it onto paper.
