Year 6 Summer Trip

09/07/2010

As part of our topic "Life on Earth" the year sixes looked at the British Birds and Waterlife sections as well as the Art gallery in the Bristol Museum. They had a great time sketching the animals; learning about interdependence and adaptation; considering how scientific research has changed since Victorian times and observing different depictions of nature in the gallery. We cannot include pictures of "Life Skills" as we do not want to spoil the surprise for the year fives!

The Goonies Are Back!

24/06/2010

Congratulations and thanks to everyone who contributed to our award winning carnival float. Special thanks go to the wonderful committee who provided the inspiration, creativity, dedication and sheer hard work; you were truly fabulous! Thanks in particular to Vicky, Ian, Alix, Sophie, Trevor and Marcus - a stunning effort and to everyone who helped construct the impressive vessel. As always, despite many of our members being pirates rather than Goonies, our children were a credit to both their parents and the school.
