Kids with Bricks Lego Club
For our final Kids with Bricks Lego Club, the children enjoyed a session without a set theme, where they could really use their imagination and create whatever they liked. A special well done to our Builder of the Week - Thomas!

Keep Fit Club
What a fantastic start to our brand-new Key Stage 2 Keep Fit Club! Our very first session was an absolute blast, filled with high energy, fresh air, and a whole lot of determination from our amazing pupils. We kicked things off by heading out along Jack Keys, where the children showed brilliant stamina as they paced themselves, walking and running along while encouraging one another every step of the way. It was lovely to see children from different year groups chatting and Mrs Wilkinson loved spending time with them all. The absolute highlight of our outdoor trek had to be the tree swing, which provided a wonderful opportunity for a few personal challenges. A huge shoutout goes to the children who stepped right outside their comfort zones and truly "found their brave" to take a turn—the proud smiles on their faces as they soared through the air said it all. To wrap up a brilliant session, we headed back to school for some well-deserved free-choice active time. The children wrapped up the session by playing a variety of fast-paced ball games on the MUGA, showing off fantastic teamwork, while others loved testing out their strength and coordination on the outdoor gym equipment. We are incredibly proud of the effort, manners, and sportsmanship everyone brought to our first club, and we already can't wait for next week's adventure! Remember to bring your trainers!

The theme for this week's Kids with Bricks Lego club was 'Loud or Quiet'. We watched our weekly video, which gave us facts about the loudest and quietest things on earth. We then had to create our own loud or quiet builds. The children had some really amazing ideas, including volcanoes, bombs and silent electric engine cars! A special well done to our Builder of the Week: Rosie!
Mad Science After School Club-Cosmic Bubbles
In the final lesson for the after-school club today, our future scientists explored the final frontier. They looked at planets, stars, and crashing meteorites before the children invented and named their very own galaxies. They then used straws to blow bubbling, frothy cosmic art to represent their creations. It was a wonderfully messy and out-of-this-world way to finish a fantastic term of 'Mad Science Club'.

This week's Kids with Bricks Lego Club theme was 'Hot or Cold'. We watched our weekly video, all about the hottest and coldest places around the world. We were tasked with creating a vehicle or creature that is suited to extreme temperatures. A special well done to our Builders of the Week: Elsie and Vienna!

Last week's Kids with Bricks Lego Club theme was 'Mega Machines." We watched our weekly video, which gave us facts about some of the biggest and most powerful machines around the world. We were then tasked with building our own, either copying those we learned about in the video, or imagining our own. A special well done to our builder of the week - Frankie! A new Kids with Bricks club for next half term will shortly be going live on the website on Wednesday 13th May: https://www.kidswithbricks.com/
Craft Club
This week at Craft Club, we looked at how different emotions can be expressed in cartoons using the Kawaii drawing style. We drew a page of different shaped bodies, added faces using a prompt sheet for inspiration and painted or coloured them using bright colours. This was the final Craft Club of this block. We have had a great time making and creating!

Today, craft club was all about space! We drew our solar system onto a paper plate, making sure we got the colours and sizes of each planet correct. We also discussed why Pluto is no longer classed as a planet but decided to use it anyway! We then made rockets on sticks which could fly through our solar system pictures. Next week at craft club we will be talking about different emotions and creating cartoon art!

This week's 'Kids with Bricks' Lego club theme was super fast animals. We watched our weekly video, which showed us the fastest land, sea and airborne animals. We then set to work creating our own super fast creatures, real or imaginary. The children did a fantastic job! We also spent some time completing some of our skyscrapers from last week, since they were so huge we didn't quite complete them last time. A special well done to our Builder of the Week - Rosie!
Craft Club
This week in craft club our theme was “In the Garden”. We decorated plant pots where we planted some cress. We then decorated pin wheels and used lots of initiative and problem solving to put them together. They’re now ready to pop in our gardens at home and watch the wind turn them! Next week, the theme is Space.
Mad Science Club- The Light Fantastic
Today in the Mad Science after-school club, our junior scientists stepped into the brilliant world of physics for a "Light Fantastic" session! They became masters of the electromagnetic spectrum, starting with the discovery that LASER is actually an acronym for Light Amplification by Stimulated Emission of Radiation. The children explored the concept of refraction by bending light beams through different materials and went on a hunt for "invisible" energy using UV light to make hidden colors fluoresce.

The theme for this week's 'Kids with Bricks' Lego club was skyscrapers. We watched our weekly video, which gave us some fun facts about the largest skyscrapers around the world. We then worked in pairs or independently to create our own skyscrapers. We all had a lot of fun. A special well done to our Builder of the Week - Elsie!
