Year 2 Maths: Recognising 2-D and 3-D Shapes
Year 2 have been looking at 2-D and 3-D shapes today in maths. We explored the names of some 2-D and 3-D shapes and compared some of the shapes and their properties.
Year 2 Science: Waterproofing Experiment
This week in Science, Year 2 explored the work of Charles Macintosh, who invented waterproof fabric. We looked at how the properties of materials can be changed, by completing a waterproofing experiment with felt and wax. We found that by rubbing the wax onto the piece of felt and melting the wax into the felt, this created a waterproof coating.

Songs of Praise Worship- Rich in Kindness
We are focusing on kindness as part of our 30 day Kindness Challenge during Lent. We have loved learning ‘Rich in Kindness’ in our Songs of Praise Worship. This is to spread some kindness to Rev David and Lorraine as we all miss you & know how much you love this song! {youtube:LbeGjymwypc}

Year 5 - Maths
In Maths, Year 5 have been multiplying 2 - digits (area model) using base 10 equipment. They have used the knowledge from a few weeks ago, finding the area of a rectangle.
Jesus as a Miracle Worker Worship
In Worship, we focussed on Jesus as a miracle worker. Today we read the story of ‘Jesus and the 5000’. Mrs Ham and the children acted the story out and we also watched a video. Jesus only had 5 loaves and 2 fish but thanks to the little boy sharing his food, Jesus performed a miracle and was able to feed 5000 people! During our reflection, we discussed the importance of sharing and giving to others. This is so important during Lent. Edward suggested that he would share his PlayStation with his siblings, Isaac suggested that we could share our money with charity, Kaylen suggested we could share our time and Dominic suggested we could share our kindness. At the end, Neve came to the front and shared her fundraising cake sale idea with the school to help those in Ukraine. It is a super idea and we can’t wait to buy lots of cakes to support her fundraising and to help those and give back. We also read some prayers about compassion that Year 5 wrote to remember all of those that are affected in Ukraine.
