Welcome to Eagles

General Reminders

• PE: We have two PE sessions a week, Tuesdays (Outdoor) and Thursdays (Indoor). Please make sure the children come to school in their PE kits on those days. If they have long hair, ensure it is tied back and earrings are taken out or covered.
• Library: Each week, the children will have the opportunity to visit the school library and choose a new book to read and enjoy. This is on a Wednesday so please ensure their Library book is in school on that day so they do not miss out on this opportunity.
• Water Bottles/Snack: Please ensure that your child brings a water bottle and a healthy snack to eat during snack break.

We are learning about the Anglo-Saxons.

We made Anglo-Saxon villages in DT

We had a super trip to Clitheroe Castle.

Maths

Well done to Rayyan and Adam, who were 1st and 2nd in the England Rocks tournament on Times Tables Rockstars.

We make our learning visual whenever possible. We used this bar model to support our understanding of percentages.

English

In English we learnt how to write a newspaper report. We read a lot of examples, and then created our reports about the sinking of the Titanic.

A huge well done to Fatima who was awarded the Sue Dean award for her amazing writing.

Foundation Subjects

DT

In DT we designed and made amphibious vehicles.  We tested them and then competed against the other classes in UKS2. Well done Adam and Tony who were our class winners. Adam was the overall winner from years 5 and 6. Great work!

Art

Look at this amazing watercolour painting of the Scottish Highlands.

We crated this amazing Greek pottery. The pictures are of a scene from our own Greek myths.

Space art

We have been experimenting with tinting, toning and shading, using white, grey and black paint. We also had a lot of fun using tooth brushes and paint brushes to create a splatter effect.

Science

We had a lovely time in the planetarium from Lancaster University. The experience was out of this world!

Investigating shadows

We designed our own investigation to test how the size of a is affected by the object's closeness to the light source.

PE

We were extremely lucky to be taught a PE lesson by two first-team PNE footballers - Emil Riis and Ryan Ledson. We asked a lot of super questions about life as a professional footballer and we even got their autographs!

As part of out History topic on transport, we visited the Leyland Transport Museum.

Curriculum Day.

We completed our learning about the United Kingdom with a curriculum day, when we went on a tour of the UK. We made flags, listened to national anthems and learnt a lot of facts about the different countries.
