A big thank you to everyone who supported the children in preparing for the play and throughout this busy week. It has been a joy to see their hard work come together so beautifully.

We would like to wish all our families a very Happy Easter and a well-deserved, restful break. We look forward to seeing everyone back, refreshed and ready for the new term!

We also took part in a SCARF workshop, where we explored important themes around wellbeing and personal development. In Science, the children enjoyed getting hands-on with a range of experiments, developing our curiosity and investigative skills. To top it all off, we attended a cricket assembly, which inspired us and introduced new skills and teamwork ideas.

The children are all really looking forward to performing our play to parents next week. Finally, we would like to say a huge thank you to families for their support with the play—helping with lines, costumes, and encouragement at home has made a real difference.

During Careers Week, we were lucky to welcome several special visitors who told us about their jobs and the important work they do. A nurse, some police officers, and a hairdresser all came to visit, and the children loved learning about the different skills needed for each role and asking lots of thoughtful questions. It was a fantastic week full of learning, imagination, and inspiration for the future.

In Maths, we have been developing our understanding of money. The children have been adding, multiplying and dividing amounts, using both written methods and practical problem-solving activities. They have shown great confidence when working out totals and calculating change.

In English, we explored the features of a playscript. The children chose from several fun prompts and created their own imaginative scripts, focusing on dialogue, stage directions and character expression. It has been wonderful to see their creativity shine.

In Science, we began our new topic on sound. We investigated pitch and discussed how sounds can be high or low depending on vibrations. The class enjoyed exploring how different sounds are made. In History, we started learning about the Vikings. We discussed who they were, where they came from and why they travelled to Britain. The children are already asking some fantastic questions!

Finally, we were very excited to step onto the stage for the first time to begin rehearsals for our production of Joseph! It was a wonderful experience to start putting the performance together, and we are all looking forward to the rehearsals ahead.
