On Monday, Year 5 went to Boldon Cricket Club where we participated in the Countdown Cricket tournament. Check out some of our in action photos!
On Friday, Reception went on a great adventure to Edinburgh Zoo. We enjoyed the metro, train, bus and not to mention seeing all the amazing animals. We caught a glimpse of Addy the new baby sloth and we were so excited to sneak a peek at David Attenbara, the baby capybara! After waving goodbye to all the animals, we enjoyed our McDonalds on the journey home, with very tired legs and teachers too!
In PE week 4, year 6 learnt how to overarm bowl and how to bat in cricket.
Episode 2 – Interview with Miss Lauder and a very special guest
Year 1 had a fantastic, artistic afternoon today diving enthusiastically into their new topic of Street View!
This topic looks at pop art, focussing on a very funny and unique artist James Rizzi.
We began by using our observation skills to sketch houses opposite the school, adding as much detail as possible, to comparing two pieces of art to highlight similarities and differences, before looking at some pieces of art by James Rizzi to inspire us to try his style for ourselves.
We really enjoyed it and can’t wait to do more!
In DT this week, year 4 tried their hand at hemming, using a running stitch.
In PE this week, year 6, practised throwing over long distances, in readiness for fielding in cricket.
Year 6 had a fabulous and fun Number Day on Friday. Everyone had an unknown number taped to their backs and their challenge was to work collaboratively, without speaking or gesturing, to organise themselves in numerical order. They finished the day with a very exciting Mystery Box maths game.

In PE this week, year 5 completed their second cricket lesson in preparation for an upcoming tournament. We got into a batting and fielding team and applied our skills to play a match. Well done year 5!
