Year 5 #enjoyed improving our drawing through memory and observation. We worked on our Mark-marking and continuous line to draw houses of different size and shape. 

This week, Year 4 discussed how spending time online can effect us physically and emotionally. We looked at how that sometimes it is OK, depending on the activity. The children sorted through scenarios to see if it was OK or too long. 

Year 3 have #embraced today’s art lesson, focusing on different types of line. We looked at a new artist who’s work is built up of different lines, showing that limes can be simple but effective. 

Year 4 are really #enjoying our Year 4 maths this week! 

Today, Year 4 #embraced 2 new art techniques to create their self portraits. Firstly, worked on simple line drawings to make very effective pieces. Next, we got a little messier and worked as printmakers to develop our skills further. Lots of #enjoyment and some great work produced! 

Year 4 have had a jam-packed day at Chester Zoo! We walked around lots of the exhibits and had lots of fun seeing all the animals. Some groups #enjoyed watching the elephants bathe and others #embraced viewing the penguins and watching them swim. Such a great day for our first few days in Year…

Year 4 have #enjoyed looking at the artist Alan Davie and exploring throughout various media. We have looked at use of colour, painting techniques and adding depth to our work. 

Year 4 fully #embraced International Mud Day! We loved getting our hands and faces dirty, becoming one with nature!

Year 6 have #embraced using tones and shades to create some identify artwork. 

Today, Year 4 had the amazing opportunity to be trained in First Aid. We learned at skill of giving CPR and helping people who might be choking. Fantastic life skills to take with us! 

Year 4 #enjoyed learning about all the nutrients we as humans need through our new science topic. 

The love for Poppy is real in Year 4. They love spending time with her on the playground.
