Space Day

Space day was a fantastic end to our topic, and we enjoyed a full day of space inspired activities and learning. The children took part in astronaut circuit training, exploring our solar system through VR headsets and making and eating marshmallow constellations! In the afternoon we had a space race and Mr Bennett helped us launch our rockets on the north lawn which was all very impressive! A big thank you to our wonderful children and families who created such fabulous space inspired hats to wear on our day too! Year 1 Team

French Day – Building Eiffel Towers

Year 1 have been building Eiffel Towers out of straws and masking tape for French day with much success.  We have measured them too and our tallest tower from 1AF is 1,97m tall.  We worked thought about using triangles as a strong shape and looked at how to strengthen straws to hold more weight.

1BR had a great time enjoying the open-ended problem-solving activity we set them for French day – creating their own Eiffel tower in groups using straws and masking tape. The collaboration, problem solving and creative thinking was fantastic to observe and they all did brilliantly. Our highest tower measured 2m 8cm! Emma Bonwick
