 Our Topic: Our Wonderful World

Our learning this week:

Welcome Back!

We hope everyone had a fantastic Easter break and is feeling refreshed and ready for an exciting new term!

This week, we've jumped straight back into our learning with a focus on the world around us. We began the week as photographers, heading outside to explore nature and capture the beauty in our environment through photographs. We also learned how to spot whether a photo is real or digitally edited, and then had a go at editing our own pictures—everyone did a brilliant job, and the final results were stunning!

Next, we put on our composer hats and created our own songs inspired by the sounds of our school environment. Drawing inspiration from composer Kerry Andrew and her piece No Place Like, we wrote original lyrics, added actions and sound effects, and practiced our performances. The results were creative, thoughtful, and a lot of fun!

In science, we began our new topic on plants. We started by exploring how plants grow, investigating different seeds and bulbs. We discovered which plants grow from bulbs, such as tulips, daffodils, and garlic and had a go at drawing both a seed and a bulb. We’re already looking forward to learning even more in the weeks to come.

It’s been a fantastic start to the term—we can't wait to see what the next few weeks will bring!
