🪨🌟 "Our Year 3 Chestnut Class have been doing some fantastic homework as part of our Stone Age History topic! The girls have been incredibly creative, decorating stones and making their own Stone Age-inspired necklaces while thinking about how people may have used the natural materials around them.
As part of their learning, they have also been exploring how and where people lived during the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods. It has been wonderful to see them bringing their History learning to life through such imaginative, hands-on homework!
Well done, girls, for your fantastic effort and creativity!" ~ Mr Fagan-Cooper

🫀🔬 "Year 6 have been learning all about the human circulatory system! They put their scientific skills into practice by conducting an experiment to investigate how the size of a blood vessel affects the flow of blood.

👮♀️📚 "To celebrate the start of our Crime and Punishment topic in History, Year 4 Willow had a special visit from PC Gemma! She showed us some of the equipment police officers use and even gave the children the opportunity to try some of it for themselves. What an exciting way to begin our new topic. Year 4 Willow can’t wait to learn more!" ~ Mr Cullen

🌿🪵 "Year 5 had a wonderful first session at Forest School! Hazel Class made their own swings, cooked up some mud soup, created sculptures from clay and even somersaulted through huge plastic tubes!
It was lovely to see the children making the most of our outdoor space and getting stuck into active, creative learning and play. We can’t wait to see what they get up to next!" ~ Ms Edwards-Tyndale

🧳🐻 "Year 1 Oak made a very special discovery… a mysterious suitcase, a jar of delicious marmalade and, most importantly, a little bear with a very important tag that read, ‘Please look after this bear.’
We can’t wait to find out what adventures and discoveries are waiting for us on our journey with Paddington Bear!" ~ Ms Esma

📚 Holmleigh’s Recommended Reads! This month, we have `Be Wild, Little One` by Olivia Hope.
"If you like monkeys, you should read this book. It tells you to go out and have a good day, go on adventures and see animals like monkeys, butterflies, birds and even sharks in the ocean!"

🌰🌿 "Year 3 have been busy researching our class tree, the beautiful chestnut tree! One student created a wonderful chestnut tree using wire, tissue paper and cardboard, alongside a lovely poem inspired by the tree. Another produced a bright and colourful poster full of interesting facts and information, accompanied by their own fantastic poem.
We have been so impressed by the creativity, effort and enthusiasm shown in their work. We are now excited to begin our new Stone Age topic and can’t wait to see what the children create next!" ~ Mr Cooper
