Here are Year 7 completing a circuit or their battery powered car model projects. You can see the children testing their hand-made push switches using card and tin foil, that makes the circuit connecting a 9V battery to a DC motor. The motor will eventually be connected to a belt and pulley system that will turn the wheels of their car. James Murray
Year 7 have been practising the past tense by writing a postcard about a trip to Paris. Madame Simpson
In the run up to Pi Day (13/4), some Year 7 and 8 pupils have been experimenting with probability and Buffon’s Needle experiment. This involved drawing parallel lines 2 matchstick lengths apart and throwing a lot of matchsticks to see where they land. By dividing the total number of sticks thrown (as a class) by the number that crossed the line, a value wonderfully appeared that approached Pi (3.14). Alison Tripp
Year 7 pupils have been busy preparing and delivering presentations on their favourite books or books they are currently reading. A wonderful variety of literature was showcased, ranging from classics like David Copperfield by Charles Dickens and Murder on the Orient Express by Agatha Christie to My Family and Other Animals by Gerald Durrell and more modern works such as Artemis Fowl by Eoin Colfer. Pupils shared their thoughts on plot, character, setting, and genre in their thoughtful and well-prepared presentations —well done, Year 7! Alexandra Price
Languages are not just about grammar and vocabulary; our y6 and 7 beginners have looked into the history of Spain and the Spanish Royal family. Madame BassGualbert
🌳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!
