Class 2 have been getting creative using collage and pastels to recreate scenes based on the Great Fire of London.

Class 2 enjoyed dressing up for the Spooky story evening. The costumes were amazing and we all enjoyed dancing to Halloween songs, colouring spooky pictures, listening to stories and of course, the hot chocolate and marshmallows.

As part of our topic on Materials, class 2 had the challenge of making 6 strips of crepe paper as strong as possible, so that they could hold a bag of shopping without it breaking. The children worked in groups to investigate ways of making their paper stronger without using any other materials.

Some groups shortened their ‘ropes’, whilst others rolled the strips before plaiting or twisting them. We then tested them with a carrier bag and added weights, testing how much weight the ropes could hold.

A huge well done to Class 3 for writing and performing your Harvest poetry, as well as creating your vibrant harvest plates!

Class 3 are pleased and proud to unveil our Plastiquarium! We are really pleased with our results and hope that you like it! Thankyou again for bringing in recyclable materials to re-use and re-purpose!
