A messy afternoon!
We have really been enjoying our science topic in Year 2 and this afternoon was the "best yet!" The children explored the properties of play dough, Floam, gloop, kinetic sand and moon sand. They investigated whether it's shape could be changed by pulling, twisting, rolling, stretching, squashing,…
It's a mystery...
On Thursday morning the children arrived to find a big mess! The animals were gone, the dinosaurs were gone and the classrooms had been destroyed! What had happened? It was a mystery!
The children set off hunting to find the animals and dinosaurs, they looked all over the school! In the end, we…
Hello Again
David came to visit us this week! It was great to see him and hear all about his school in Germany. We think he's really lucky because he doesn't have to wear a uniform; Mrs Taylor thinks the teachers are really lucky because there are only 20 children in his class!
Caught in the 'Wild'...
The children have been engaging in lots of child-initiated activities these past few weeks as they are thoroughly enjoying the new topics 'Animals' and 'Dinosaurs'. We have been doing lots of research on the internet to create fact files, 'googling' questions and watching videos of the animals…

Harry Potter day
Today marks 20years since the first Harry Potter book was released. In Year 1 we held a themed day to celebrate. First, 1MM received a visitor - a baby dragon! We had to think about how to look after it and then we wrote a list of instructions for its care. After lunch, we had a treasure hunt…
Bridge Engineers
On Friday 1MM became bridge engineers. Using Lego we had to build a bridge that went over a river and it had to be strong enough too (some were a little bit shaky and broke easily). The challenge also tested our teamwork and perseverance. In the end, everyone had built their own bridge and…
Beautiful Baby!
Mrs Baker paid us a visit on Tuesday this week, with her beautiful baby, Harry George. We are learning about human life cycles and it was lovely to meet Harry properly and learn how much he has changed and grown since he was born less than 6 months ago.

Well done again,
Miss. Everest
