Incy Wincy Spider

What a super idea these spiders in their webs are!  Lilli, Alfie, Charlie, Brandon and Gabriel had to prepare their plate, paint their spider (with 8 legs!), thread the wool and then stick on the eyes.  Well done, people, for some really effective pieces of art work!

Marvellous minibeats

Kal-El, Lacey, Autumn, Esmee, Gracie, Jack, Jack and Elsa have been very busy designing and creating these beautiful felt minibeasts.  I am impressed by how closely they have paid attention to the detail of their plan and how their decoration matches their original ideas.  Brilliant work!

Property Section

If you fancy buying a Tudor house, you really need to read these sales pitches!  Morgan, Yasmine, Natalie, Rudi and Edward's use of estate agent jargon is superb and anyone of these properties sounds like an absolute bargain!  Just need to save up some groats!  Well done, folks!

Trying Tudor Times

What a detailed account of the trip to Kentwell Hall Reuben has written!  It almost felt like I had spent the day with him!  He used some lovely time vocabulary to describe the sequence of events as well.  Great effort, Reuben!

Crucial in a crisis!

Henry impressed the leaders of the Year 6 Crucial Crew training with his wide knowledge about what to do in different emergency situations.  He is definitely the person to have with you if you smell gas or are trapped in a fire.  What a knowledgeable gentleman you are!

Would you rather ...?

These mathematical geniuses do not make life easy!  their percentage Powerpoint presentations really tax the old brain cells in working out how many elephants you want to be trampled by, or how many times you want to be shot, or how many slugs you want in your underwear!  A really entertaining piece of work, folks!

Not so revolting after all!

Ethan really enjoyed writing and published his revolting rhyme.  It is rather gruesome with the wolf losing his head, but there are some very clever rhymes in there.  What a great bedtime story for you to keep, Ethan!  Great work!

The next Novak?

Mrs Davies was very impressed with Zach's tennis skills this week.  He showed her how carefully he can use a racquet to hit a ball accurately back to his partner.  I think we need to watch out for hm at Wimbledon soon!  Well done, Zach!

Tudor Times

It is clear from their descriptions of the day that Jasmine, Charlee, Joe, Jack, Sam and Louise really enjoyed their visit to Kentwell Hall.  They are Special Achievers because they used superb time connectives and interesting phrases in their writing - well done all of you!

Tudor portraits

These Tudor pictures are AMAZING!  Erhan and Wiktoria worked particularly hard to make their portraits the very best they could, and you certainly can tell who they are.  Very effective pieces of art work, folks!

Buenos días

Even Mr Castro is pleased with Jake's Spanish.  Mr Castro tried to catch the children out by changing the words he was using, but Jake was just too quick for him.  He has shown that he has paid attention in his lessons and it is paying off.  Good news indeed!

Skyla's speech!

Skyla's English set couldn't think of any ways that she would be able to improve her presentation.  She talks very knowledgeably and confidently about her skiing and is obviously proud of her achievements and skills.  Brilliant, Skyla!

Perfect percentages

Ruby, Callum and Liam have impressed Miss Stannard by their brilliant calculation of percentages.  They carried out one- and two-step problems to show they have a really good understanding of how to work these out.  Superb work!

Minibeast mini-project!

Lucas has been so interested in Hedgehogs' work about minibeasts that he decided to carry out some research on the internet at home.  He has copied and pasted lots of pictures to make this beautiful project.  Great work, Lucas!

Poor Miss Stannard

In Ben's report, Miss Stannard had already suggested that his next step in maths should be to practise calculating percentages.  Now she has got to rewrite that section because he whizzed through two sides of word problems and showed that he is a percentage genius.  Well done you!
