Henry - For his expertise in computer programming using Scratch.  Henry is able to design and make games, create algorithms, use code and run and de-bug his games. Henry thinks carefully about how he can use variables to improve his games. Using Scratch to create games, is something Henry likes to do at home as well.

Well done to all the children for their excellent behaviour on our trip to Murton Park yesterday learning about life on the home front during WWII. {Hopefully this will be the case}.

Kaja - she has really taken off in maths this week and has been answering lots of questions about fractions. Keep up the good work Kaja.

Beatrice - for her wonderful writing this week. Bea has not only been awarded her pen licence this week but she has written two post-cards based around the film 'Goodnight Mister Tom' - one from William Beech to his mother, and one from the school teacher Annie to her husband.  Bea has risen to the challenge, writing in a formal style, drawing on the characters behaviours and including a variety of punctuation in her work. Excellent Bea.

Max - for his beautiful handwriting and presentation of his work. Max takes pride in his learning. His writing was used as an example for Class 5 to aspire to.

W/E: 13/01/22

Liam, Logan, Lily - for rising to the challenge of getting 72 out of 72 addition and multiplication calculations correct in 100 seconds in 'Big Maths Beat That'. Well done. Keep up the good mental arithmetic work - accuracy and speed count!

W/E: 16/12/22

Milly - what a lovely way to end this term, mentioning this young lady. She brings her smile and cheerful to school with her and this has been particularly evident this week when she has revelled in all the musical activities going on - choir, concerts and playing her musical instrument. For such warmth, merriment and kindness shown, star of the week belongs to Milly!

Hollie and Layla - both girls worked well in their team putting in a lot of effort playing 'Handball' in PE on Tuesday. They were applying their knowledge of skills for attacking and defending, including throwing and catching successfully under pressure in a game maintaining possession of the ball. Well done - a pleasure to watch.

W/E: 25/11/22

Caroline and Theo - for their work in French this week. Class 6 have been looking at different types of clothing. Both children have written their own sentences in French about clothes on the washing line and whom the clothes belong to. Caroline has used the French dictionary to find family words in French and Theo showed his amazing speaking skills when he read out his work to the class. Well done both children.

W/E: 18/11/22

Lily- Grace - for her attitude to her 'Remembrance' writing in RE, making careful notes and using them to structure her writing. Lily-Grace worked hard and concentrated well, persevering to complete the task given.

W/E: 11/11/22

Lily and Jessica - both girls contribute enormously within class by asking and answering questions, thinking deeply and sharing their understanding, strategies and opinions in discussions and supporting others who need help. What fantastic role models they are. Thank you girls.

W/E: 04/11/22

Sam - has been chosen, in part, because of his attitude towards the school trip.  He bravely stood in at the last moment to be the child who was 'caned' for throwing a book across the classroom.  He thoroughly enjoyed his day and I have no doubt, that he will retained a lot of knowledge about what it was like to be a child in Victorian times.  Not only that, but in Science yesterday Sam amazed me with his use of super science words when he needed to explain the properties of materials to help answer a question.  He used the word absorbs accurately.  

Edie - like many of the class found our trip rather nerve wracking.  From the moment we arrived at the Victorian Classroom our teacher, Miss Sharp, was in role.  In order to create a wonderfully immersive learning experience for the children she was extremely strict.  I have chosen my star because I was proud of her for the way she persevered with the day.  She communicated her worries to a grown up which is a really mature thing to do.  As a result, she was able to enjoy much of the rest of the day.  Well done Edie, I am very proud of you for overcoming your fears on Wednesday!

W/E: 04/11/22

Zachary and Theo K for their creative models of the adventure activities at PGL. Theo made the climbing and abseiling tower out of wooden lolly sticks and other materials and Zach created a working model of the zip line out of Lego.

W/E: 07/10/22

Shreya and Mabel - for throwing and catching accurately and successfully and under pressure in a game. They were making good passes and linking a range of skills together with fluency. 

W/E: 30/09/22

Dionne and Beatrice - for using their designs to make a cookie box. Both girls measured, drew, cut and fastened carefully to construct their 3D box ready for their cookie. Well done!

W/E: 23/09/2022

Charlie and Daisy – both worked so carefully to gather their ideas for their calligram poems.  They were thinking creatively to come up with some fabulous vocabulary.

Scarlett – for settling well into Class 6, making new friends and joining in as if she has always been in Class 6.
