Eco-Week Competition
We had so many wonderful, imaginative entries to our competition to make something useful out of things that would otherwise be thrown away.
Here is just a selection of the entries.

Eco-Week Art Project
One of the highlights of Eco-Week was working with Rojo Art to turn piles and piles of rubbish into a fantastic, imaginative display. The whole school spent an entire day working on the project. We are delighted with the resulting display in the library

Trip to Virador Recycling Plant
Another part of Eco-Week was the KS2 visit to the recycling plant at Great Blakenham. Both classes did lots of follow up work back in school. Sycamore Class made this very informative display and wrote information leaflets to share what they had learnt.

Y2 Trip to the Middy
As part of their work on forces, children in Lime Tree Class went to the Middy to find out about forces in action on the trains. They looked at the couplings to see how engines push and pull the wagons and then had great fun launching an air rocket into the sky.

Making Fat Balls in Sycamore
Sycamore Tree Class invited parents and grandparents in to help them make fat balls for birds as part of their work on habitats. The birds in our school garden have been appreciating them since!
  |
Y5 & 6 History, Art and Design Technology
Children in Chestnut Tree Class have been learning about Native American Indians in history this half term. As part of this, they made this magnificent eagle in art as well as these teepees in design technology..
  |
Sign2Sing
Again this year, we took part in Sign2Sing. Children learnt how to sign as they sang a special song and raised £54.
 |
Epiphany Procession
Rev. Julia Lall marked Epiphany with us this year with a procession down to the church in crowns that the children had made, led by a star, kings and camels. This was followed by a short service where we were joined by parents.

Moving Pictures
Here are some of the moving pictures that Willow Tree Class made and then peer-evaluated as part of their design technology this term.

Sycamore Class Feed the Birds!
The year 3 & 4 children in Sycamore Class were busy yesterday afternoon, making fat balls for birds. This was part of the work they have been doing on habitats. Mrs Sharpe was very grateful to all the parents and grandparents who came in and helped.
Some children even made a bird box!

Trip to the Middy
As part of their science work on forces, Lime Tree Class walked down to the Middy to look at forces in action in the trains there. They were met by Katie who showed them the couplings and buffers on the trains, how the points mechanisms worked and how the coupling rods pushed and pulled the wheels round. The children had a great time and it was fantastic for them to have the opportunity to apply what they had learnt in a different setting.
The highlight was definitely when each child was able to send the air rocket high into the air!
Our thanks to Katie and all the other volunteers at the Middy who chatted to the children and answered all their many questions as we went round.
