In computing the Year 3/4s explored the use of loops in their programming. They worked really hard to create blocks of code containing loops to play some musical notes. We had lots of fun listening to everyone’s musical creations.
Diamond Class Activities
Let’s Celebrate!
The whole school celebrated all the wonderful achievements over the last four weeks in school. Pupils recieved certificates for English and Maths work and for following our values. We also gave out our ‘Soar on Wings’ trophy to those that had ‘Soared’!
It was lovely to celebrate all the achievements of pupils out of school too.
Egyptian Scrolls
In Art, we are learning about Egyptian art and we are going to produce our own Egyptian scroll. We have researched Egyptian images and patterns and designed our scrolls. We are looking forward to making them.
Soar on Wings
We take inspiration from Isaiah 40:31, “They will soar on wings like eagles; They will run and not grow weary; They will walk and not be faint.” to ‘Soar on Wings’ in our school. We all worked together in our circle groups to think about what this means for us. We presented our thoughts in lots of different ways. Can you ‘Soar on Wings’?
Summer Reading Challenge
A librarian for Great Yarmouth Library visited us to present the pupils who had completed the Summer Reading       Challenge with their medal and certificate. An amazing 28 pupils completed the challenge! We are so proud of them.
Exploring Noun Phrases
We explored the use of noun phrases and pronouns to build cohesion in our piece of writing about Philippe Petit.
Tightrope Walking      
In English, we have been reading about Philippe Petit who walked between the Twin Towers in New York. We tried to tightrope walk to gather emotions to include in our writing. Terrified was definitely one of the strongest feelings we all had!
World Book Day
Everyone in school celebrated World Book Day by dressing up as a character from a book and sharing that book with their House group. They also wrote a book review recommending why others should read the book.
Horstead
What a fabulous time Y5 and 6 had on residential at the Horstead Centre and they were pleased this year to be joined by our Federation school, Salhouse CEVC Primary. Lots of new friends were made and pupils learned to use our school values of perseverance and courage to tackle a lot of adventurous outdoor activities. They were an absolute pleasure to take away and everyone is super proud of them.
