Congratulations to the newly appointed Year 5&6 librarians for this term; Will, Tavonga, Olivia, Rebecca, Temi, Samual, Emilia, Tate, Ollie and Fynn.

To celebrate Languages Day pupils were invited to the Learning Hub for some fun activities. These included making a personalised bookmark where they could choose from a range of stylised alphabets; Chinese, Japanese, Russian, Italian, Greek, French, German, Thai and Arabic. Catherine Duncumb
There are lots of new magazines to enjoy reading in the Learning Hub Library. They will be available to all pupils on Relax & Read Wednesdays and during the JB’s Grab-a-Mag sessions. Hopefully something for everyone! Catherine Duncumb
🔴 WWII History Day 🔵
Year 4 stepped out of the classroom today to dive deeper into WWII history with the brilliant @handsonhistoryuk.
The children - and teachers - had the chance to dress in the real uniforms of a Royal Navy Signaller, a soldier, an RAF pilot, and evacuees. They explored the development of gas masks and the equipment used by soldiers, learning just how tough life was during the war.
After making their own gas masks they learned morse code and semaphore. They even handled deactivated firearms from the battlefield - amazed by how heavy they were.
The final part of the day saw the children practicing their WW11 first aid techniques, using the same instructions given to soldiers for bandaging different injuries.
It’s been a great day for bringing history to life!
