Welcome to the last of our series with Paddy! Today, with the good weather, he’s moving back outdoors again!

Hello everyone 😄 Well done for all the fantastic art work you have been doing over the past few weeks. We are so impressed with how creative you all are.

For your art challenge this week you can design and create a robot using any materials that you have at home. You could use items that you no longer need or use anymore. You could use items that you were going to throw away in the bin. You could borrow an item just while you are making your robot and then return it after. Be as creative as you can! 😊

Have a look at some of these examples of recycled robots to give you some inspiration for your project.

Send in any pictures of your robots to your teacher on Class Dojo or to the school WhatsApp. We can wait to see what you come up with 😃

Hello everyone and welcome to our next creative challenge!

Your responses to the question ‘what is creativity’? where so imaginative and unique, we’re sure we’re going to hear and receive amazing suggestions as we start to write and draw a story as a whole school!

Take a look at the video below that Bex has sent to us and get involved by answering the question and submitting your illustrations via Class Dojo or here on the school blog.

We can’t wait to hear what creative and imaginative story lines you come up with and hope that all classes get involved!

Well done to everyone for sending in such lovely pictures for their art challenge this week! Have a look at some of the creations by this very talented bunch 😄

Well done everyone for your great work 😄

Hi everyone! Well done on all your hard work doing STEM activities so far. This week we are looking at density. Density is a word we use to describe how much space an object or substance takes up (its volume) in relation to the amount of matter in that object or substance (its mass). Another way to put it is that density is the amount of mass per unit of volume. If an object is heavy and compact, it has a high density. This video will show you how it works! Try it out at home too see if you get the same results. Feel free to experiment with different liquids, good luck!

Pancake Tuesday is one of our favourite days in the school calendar so we’ve marked the occasion with a very special video from Paddy!

Here are some of the beautiful Valentine’s Day cards that we made at home… 💕❤💕❤

Here’s a beautiful picture that Mya made of her brand new baby cousin who she loves very much! 💕🌹
