Inspired by Eric Carle’s brilliant children’s picture book, ‘The Very Hungry Caterpillar’, the Year 4 children have been creating their own butterflies. Firstly, they experimented making arbitrary marks and washes with acrylic inks on paper, then they either tore or cut them before sticking in place to create their own unique butterfly; stunning art and a very messy studio!

In Science this week, the children have started their new topic on Teeth and Digestion. They have been exploring the teeth in their mouth and replicating them in a clay model. They can identify the different types of teeth and have learnt about the jobs they do. Year 4 Team
This week in History, we have learnt about the design of a Tudor house and how they were built using wood with wattle and daub, with this producing huge interest when they heard they used dung! The children made their own Tudor Houses in groups, which now look fantastic in the classrooms. Year 4 Team
There was plenty to celebrate in our Year 3 and 4 assembly today. Starting with lots of star and smiley faces badges being awarded for some fantastic house point totals. This was followed by a presentation of pen licences to some Year 4s and a few subject commendations for great work in Maths, Forest School and French. A great way to start a sunny Friday!
🌳Year 1 had a fantastic day at Lymley Wood! 🪹
The children enjoyed the adventure playground, testing their agility on rope courses and wooden beams. They learned about habitats, foraged for materials to create their own nests, and hid them around the woodland for animals to find. After a picnic lunch and free play on the nets and mud kitchen, the day ended with roasting marshmallows, making s’mores, and playing team games.
It was a magical day outdoors.

What do you call a group of frogs? An army!
Just one of the fun facts our youngest children learned today during an exciting visit from Jaws N Claws. They met an incredible array of animals, including Nigel, the 9-year-old blue-tongued lizard, Frank and Dave, the Great African Snails, Pete, the Giant African Bullfrog, Buster and Elvis, the tree frogs, and Steve, the royal python, who could grow to an impressive 8 feet!
There were squeals, wrinkled noses, and giggles as the children got up close with these fascinating creatures. It was a brilliant and unforgettable session—thank you, Jaws N Claws!
