Tesco trip

To continue learning about chefs, we’re going to become chefs and make our own soup! To prepare for this, we went to Tesco to buy the ingredients we need.

Great afternoon with our LJMU students and our sustainability project.

We enjoyed making puppets with our families yesterday!

We explored how nets can be used to transform into 3D shapes. We practised cutting, folding and gluing tabs to be able to make shell structures.

We rounded off our ‘My Bnk’ sessions with talking about money habits and the importance of saving! We even made our very own money bank.

Supertato’s House

This afternoon we created Supertato’s house using icing sugar and gingerbread. We mixed the icing sugar and water to use as glue to stick the house together.

We had an amazing day on world book day! We focused on #Goldilocks and created our own poems and naughty hashtags.

Buzz Buzz

We’ve had a great afternoon making circuits with a light and a buzzer to help us when making our buzz wire game. We also got to have a go at a buzz wire game!

Building our prototypes!

Teamwork – we started to build our chairs

We worked so well in teams to start to build our chairs in DT

Check out our finished chairs!

We made chairs as part of our DT topic on stable structures.

We have been working hard on our rail engineering project. Over the past couple of weeks, we have created our own locomotives, complete with a frame, wheels, axels and an electrical circuit.

We have created our volcanoes and painted them. They look amazing! We are going to erupt them this week and see what happens when an active volcano blows. Watch this space…

Spaghetti Bolognese time!

Our first group created their very own authentic traditional bolognese sauce! We have linked our DT unit with our Geography topic of Italy. Super behaviour and sensible cooks.

Happy Eid to all our families celebrating! We had a lovely day and week celebrating with all our children and adults.

Year 4 enjoyed test testing ingredients for our Ramen recipe.

Volcanoes Eruptions!

We had an amazing afternoon erupting our volcanoes! We even had a very dangerous and violent composite volcano with thick magma which increased the pressure when erupting.

Year 3 Volcano eruptions!

Cooking time again!

We had our second group to make our traditional Italian bolognese. They had a great time preparing the ingredient and seasoning it to perfection! Thanks to our amazing head chef once again – Monica.
