​On Monday, we had a visit from Amy and Glynn from the RNLI. The interactive assembly made it really clear how we can stay safe on the beach. We learnt where we should enter the water at the beach and what to do in an emergency. Always swim at a lifeguarded beach and if you get into trouble stay calm, float and wave with a closed hand.

During our PSHE lesson, the Snowy Owls explored the concept of compromise. They worked together to decide how they would deal with a situation when they didn’t agree with another person. The children came up with some great solutions and strategies to deal with the situation. The children role played how this might look. We will be encouraging the children to use these strategies in real life situations.

William Morris Art

28/4/2024

​The Snowy Owls have been exploring the work of William Morris. We learnt that during the industrial revolution lots of people moved to the cities to work but they missed nature. William Morris created wallpaper which celebrated wildlife, plants, flowers and leaves to remind people of the countryside. The Snowy Owls went on a nature walk and their artwork was inspired by what they collected.

Investigating variables

28/4/2024

0 Comments

 
​During science, the children have conducted a scientific investigation and explored how variables can impact an experiment. The children are investigating the impact of sunlight on the growth of a plant and have changed the location of their seeds. They have kept all other variables the same to make the investigation fair. This week, the children analysed their seeds and saw that they hard started to grow. They found that the seeds that were in direct sunlight didn’t grow as well as they expected as the sun had dried up the water. The lack of light meant the seeds in the dark grew yellow and the seeds in the shade grew the most. The children were interested to see how their predictions differed from the results.

The Tawny Owls saw evidence of the Giant coming to school from the story, Jim and the Beanstalk that they are studying in their English lessons. They were very excited that his footprint was found on our playing field with a note that read, 'Fee-Fi-Fo-Fum!' We wonder what other things may happen around school over the coming weeks!
