Children in Year 5 have been learning about Space through Science, Art and Humanities.
As the Year 5 children are now in Upper Primary, they now have specialist teachers for Science, Humanities and Art/DT. These lessons are linked thematically in a variety of ways. One day the children could be learning about geocentric and heliocentric models in Science with Mr O'Leary. The next day, they will be creating colour swatches of the planets with Miss Chambers for Art. That same week, they could be learning about the history of the space race with Mr Walker for Humanities.
Combining all these areas ensures that the children have a deeper understanding of the overall 'To Infinity and Beyond' topic, which is being covered in the Term 1 this year.

Our Year 1 and 2 students shone bright at this year’s KS1 Sports Day, showing off their team spirit, determination, and impressive sporting skills! From running and jumping to throwing and space hopping – they did it all with enthusiasm and heart.
Our young adventurers in Year 3 took on two days full of fun, laughter, learning, and a touch of bravery on their Residential Trip this week. They returned with stories, smiles, and some seriously impressive new skills.
