Our Learning This Week

This week in Maths, Year 6 have been multiplying fractions, exploring a range of strategies and applying their skills to solve challenging problems. Year 5 have been learning about square and cubed numbers, investigating number patterns and using their knowledge confidently in increasingly tricky tasks.

In English, we have been planning our own narratives based on The Queen’s Token by Pamela Oldfield. The children developed engaging story ideas, using descriptive language and thoughtful structure in preparation for their writing.

In Topic (Art), the children have been learning how to create effective shading in portraits and experimenting with new watercolour techniques. They showed excellent attention to detail and creativity as they developed their artistic skills.

In PE, we continued our gymnastics unit, focusing on rolls and balances. The children practised moving with control, linking their skills smoothly and demonstrating increasing confidence.
