Mrs Murton Year 6 2020 - 2021

This week, the children have been writing balanced arguments for work based on the book 'Pig Heart Boy' by Malorie Blackman. They had to put forward the arguments for and against the main character (Cameron) having a pig's heart transplant. I was extremely impressed with the mature way the…

Thank you to everyone who donated to Children in Need today! 

Some of the children enjoyed creating posters using Publisher, others just relaxed with some Pudsey colouring in!

What a week! I'm exhausted just watching all the scores roll in. It was very tight between Mrs Charlton's and Mrs Kearns' classes, with the Y3/4 class only just pipping them to the post. Mr Moore's class didn't really turn up to this tournament, scoring fewer than 3000 points, compared to the…

The children really enjoyed creating these posters, pictures and garlands for the residents of our village's new retirement complex. They are having a Remembrance event so these will help to decorate the rooms. It is lovely to have this important link in the community.

It's that time again, folks! The latest round of TTRS Battles! We go live at 3:20pm on Thursday 5th November until the following Thursday at 12pm.

This week we came to the end of our topic - A Child’s War. As part of the innovate project, the children had to plan an ‘end of the war’ street party. They wrote invitations, designed bunting and researched what might have been eaten so they could make menus.

I was so impressed by their…

I cannot believe we are at the end of our topic - A Child’s War. Have a look at the homework the children have produced - just amazing!

We had our first lesson learning how to do long division today - we LOVE it! We can't wait for Monday so that we can have another go!

This week we have been finding out what homes in the 1940s would have been like. The children discussed similarities and differences and a lot of them liked the idea of everyone sitting in the living room together, listening to the wireless.

We also talked about rationing and why it was so…
