Cricket sessions
Pinkery class have been lucky this term to have a cricket coach in. The children have been really enjoying these sessions- despite the change in weather this autumn!
Dissecting Pigs' Hearts
This term the year 6 children explored a real heart when we dissected pigs’ hearts as part of our science topic- the circulatory system. Many of them were keen to put on a glove and get involved as inquisitive scientists. This gave the pupils the chance to investigate the four chambers of the heart as well as the aorta and vena cava up close.
Music Sessions
Pinkery class enjoyed learning to play the steel drums this term. They all did a great job at following the notes to classics like Twinkle Little Star and Hot Cross Buns as well as creating their own rhythms and beats to share with the class.
PSHE
In PSHE this term, we've been exploring celebrating differences and the children got a chance to use their acting skills to create freeze frames of situations of prejudice and discrimination where there has been a conflict and then a resolution. The children showed maturity in their choices on how they came to solve disputes linked to race, gender and disability.
