Year 6 had a wonderful time participating in the First Aid Workshop. They learnt how to use everyday materials to deal with minor injuries. During the Second World War, people had to deal efficiently and confidently with many emergencies. Keep calm and carry on!

They then designed their own Trebuchets, built them out of K’Nex, tested them, improved them and finally, evaluated them. Here’s a sneak preview of some of our tests, launching marshmallow projectiles to break […]

Year 4 had a fantastic day yesterday for our Roman Day. Who would have thought we would be meeting a Roman soldier? The soldier taught us all about what it is like to be a Roman, from what equipment they used in battle to what they used to eat. Did you know that Romans used […]

While the rest of year 5 were at Harvington Hall, children in 5T transformed a pile of cardboard boxes into these incredible Tudor houses. I am so impressed with the hard work that went into these – just look at that attention to detail! I hope you are all very proud of what you have […]
