A huge thank you to Britten Sinfonia for bringing their Dots and Lines assembly to our school on 28th Nov.

Watching them listen, respond, and share their own interpretations was truly special. 🎶✨

Today the children took part in a series of short 5-10 minute acitivities, organised as a fun "circus" of challenges in groups of 4 pupils to complete. Each activity was designed to encourage teamwork, problem-solving, and communication as the children worked together to solve simple tasks. The session also included a series of activities introducing the children to various aspects of mapwork, usually completed in conjunction with other team challenges. As the session progres

A Great Start to Our Burwell House Adventure! What an amazing first day we’ve had at Burwell House!

Year 3 have had an amazing time this half term. On our trip to Flag Fen the children stepped back in time to experience what life was like in the Stone Age. They had great fun throwing spears at a wooden deer, just like ancient hunters, and sitting around a fire in a real roundhouse, imagining stories from long ago. We also examined fascinating artifacts, learning how people lived thousands of years ago. Everyone got creative with prehistoric-style painting using smushed berr

It’s been a fantastic and busy first term in Ladybirds, filled with learning, laughter, and lots of new experiences. Our term began with some brilliant story adventures in English. We loved reading Mini Rabbit Gets Lost and retelling the story in our own words, thinking about how Mini Rabbit might have felt along the way.

In English we have been exploring the features of an explanation text to enable us to write our own all about Viking longships. To support this we have been travelling back in time to 793 AD in History to explore the Lindesfarne raids. As musicians we have been learning about three different types of notes - minims, quavers and crotchets. We clever

In maths, we have been learning al
