Colour Mixing


In Art, we have discussed how to use primary colours (yellow, red and blue) to create secondary colours (orange, purple and green). Then we used an image of a fruit bowl in order to practise our new colour mixing skills. The end products are on display in the KS1 corridor, so please take a look, next time you are in school.

Circuits in Science!

In Science this term we have been learning  all about ELECTRICITY.

We have talked about different forms of electricity and where it comes from. We now know how it travels to our homes and other buildings.

Experimenting with batteries, wires, bulbs and buzzers to make our own circuits has been great fun!
 
Take a look at some of our photos!


 Concentration!
 
 








Will it work?
 
 
Hooray! Aren't we clever?

Music Lessons

We have been experimenting how to make different sounds with a variety of musical instruments. How many of the instruments can you recognise?

Welcome to our first blog of 2013.

Mrs Leeks and I have thoroughly enjoyed our first two weeks back and thought you might like to catch up with some of our latest photos.

Our Christmas play was very well received. Thanks for all your help with the costumes.





 Even Zippy had his own party hat!
 

 Party food time

 Check out those dance moves!
 

 Guess Who?
 
 Pin the nose on Rudolph
 
No danger of any peeping!

We had lots of fun making the puppets in DT. A huge thank you to all the people who came in and helped out. It makes all the difference and also meant that I didn't have to thread twenty needles by myself- phew!



Cutting out our puppets









Just to give you advance notice... We are celebrating World Book Day on Thursday 7th March, when both the staff and children have the opportunity to come to school as a character from a book. 
 
Look out for photos from our Indian Experience session this coming Friday.
