Class update from Friday 16^th October 2026:

Over the past few weeks the children have been working hard on presentations for Father Martin’s retirement worship where the children have been dusting off their county dancing skills and this week we have been making corn dollies in preparation for our Harvest service focusing on Harvest traditions.

In English, we have been continuing to read our book 'The Last Wild'. This week we delved further into the forest where the main character met all the animals who are still alive. We used visualisation and imagery to bring this scene to life using chalks and pastels. Also, after writing, editing and performing our news scripts last week, we are returning to 'Writing for Entertainment' by writing the next chapter. This is a difficult skill to add enough action to sustain the reader but not go ahead and finish the book!

In Maths, we are have been working on written methods for addition and subtraction by focusing on solving multi-step problems and understanding how to find missing numbers in these types of calculations.

Our Design and Technology topic this term is Structures. This week have been learning about bridges and how they are made stronger through material selection, structural design, and construction techniques including adding arches to our bridges to make them stronger.

In PSHE, we have been learning about how to work together in a group successfully. The children were tasked with building the tallest structure in a group and then discussed what worked well and what could be improved in terms of communication and cooperation.

We finished our first half term of gymnastics by completing squat throughs and straddle-overs and we will be continuing to work with Rian in Autumn 2.
