As part of this term’s Rocks project we had a visit to Back Lane Quarry near Carnforth. We saw the whole process, extracting the rock, crushing it and sorting it into different sizes. We saw the big machines and discussed what the different rock products were used for. The highlight of the trip was watching them blast a new face! Thanks to everyone at Aggregate Industries.
The whole school ran or walked a mile around Parson’s Field to raise money for Sport Relief
We have had four furry visitors into class. Ben brought his puppies into see us. They were very cute, even Mrs Wadey had a hold!
We reflected on talking to God. We learnt about Ash Wednesday and why Lent is special. We thought about our bad habits and what we might give up. Thanks to the members of St. Johns Church for making us welcome and for creating such visual and thoughtful stations.
We celebrated World Book Day in style. We shared our favourite books with each other and we dressed up as in as a everyone form Mr Bump to Peter Rabbit.
In music we have been learning about tunes and accompaniments. We have used the 5 note pentatonic scale and are here playing a piece on xylophones and glockenspiels using a melody and chords to accompany it.
We have been working with QES gymnastic specialists. We’ve all performed super forward rolls on the top of the vault and launched ourselves into the air off the trampette! Mr Marriot entertained us with an amazing magic rope trick too – what more could we ask for?
