Brainwave Exit Point

Well done to all Y6 children for trying their best with all activities this morning.
Thank you parenst for coming and supporting the children.
Star of the Week: Long
for being caring and helpful.

Aerospace challenge!

Working together in group of 2-3, Y6 children eagerly took on the Aerospace Challenge. Their tasks were to design and make a prototype for Vietnam Airlines that will glide should the engines cut out. Taking the effect of the plane weight, the gravity, the air resistance and the stability of the plane, Y6 worked hard and came up with some brilliant ideas.

Some models proved to be more successful than others ^^ Well done everyone.

Book Week Parade


Book Week has been fantastic. There have been many activities throughout the week and the children have enjoyed all of them along with their reading books.

To complete the week, the parade this morning was both fabulous and colourful. Children and teachers came to school dressed as one of their favourite book characters. Well done to all children who made such a good effort dressing up.

Year 6 students created book reviews on the library blog today. All blogs are held out in "the cloud" so Year 6 were able to use a number of strategies, skills and devices to write and post their reviews. Some worked in the classroom, some in the library, and others used their mobile devices, iPads and smart phones.


 As blogs are held in in the cloud, the students could use anytime, anywhere learning, and log on from various places and spaces around the school to access their work on the blog. The students with their devices had even more flexibility.






Some students used cameras to take and download their images, while others used their iPads. Students were able to peer check the reviews. Nicholas was a popular post checker as he gave very positive feed back.

Whatever the device and where ever the place Year 6 wrote some fabulous reviews. Check out the book reviews on the library blog.

PDV Community Project


Once again, the children enjoyed their time and the activities with the children from PDV. Hopes are high for many art masterpieces to come to come out of the visits. These will be displayed and some may be bought at the TX / PDV Art Exhibition later in the term Details to follow...




Liz Million

 Liz Million, an illustrator for children's book came to school yesterday and helped us to improve our drawing skills. We got to witness how quickly she could draw a mean leopard in action within minutes. It was brilliant! Using skills and tips from Liz Million, it's now our turn to create our own aliens for our Science Fiction stories.
