EFL Kids Kup – Y56 just miss out on finals spot!

Tonight our boys played in the EFL Kids Kup qualifier at Hull University. The group games got off to a good start with a 3-0 win against St Nicholas Primary. The second game was a tough match against Neasden Primary. After taking the lead initially, the boys lost the game in the last seconds 2-1. A confident show in the next game saw them beat Marfleet 2-1. Their last game was vary tight, but the boys kept their composure to see off a strong Broadacre side 1-0.

Unfortunately, the boys finished second in their group by one point – the loss against Neasden costing them a spot in the final match. Despite the result, it was a good opportunity to test themselves against some trickier competition with the Humberside Finals looming next week.

 

Kacper (2nd from left) scored three fantastic headers from corners! Well done! 

Year 5 Bikeability

Year 5 have had a super week taking part in Bikeability. They have learned all about the primary and secondary road positions, how to do a u-turn and how to signal and turn left and right. Well done Year 5!

Y2 are Observing Over Time

Year 2 have been learning about hygiene in Science. They have investigating what will happen to bread when touched with clean and dirty hands. They made a prediction and then carried out their investigation.

They are going to record their results each week for the next 3 weeks.

They can’t wait to see what happens.

 

Y3 Dance: Wild Animals

In our Year 3 Dance P.E sessions so far this term, the children are thoroughly enjoying getting into the character of their chosen wild animal and adding lots of drama and emotion to their own short choreographed dance sequence.

As you can see, the children have certainly displayed lots of emotion and creativity through their striking poses and facial expressions to show how their chosen wild creature would both act and react in their native habitats.

Capturing Expression

Year 4 have been demonstrating their artistic flairs and utilising their knowledge of the shape and proportion of the body,  whilst making light sketches of the mannequin in different poses to show expression.

Belief in the Community

As Theologists in Year 4, we have been exploring some images of a religious celebration and used our skills of inference and deduction to identify which religion this event is special to and what the celebration may have been about.

From the images, we identified that it was a celebration that is held in the Jewish community by how the gentlemen were dressed in the images and that a special meal was being shared in what appeared to be an outdoor living space.

Miss Stewart then revealed that the images depicted the traditional Jewish Festival of Sukkot,  We then watched a video-clip, whereupon Adam explained what the Festival of Sukkot is and the importance it holds to those who belong to the Jewish community.  From this we were able to share the new learning that we had acquired from this lesson…

 

Differences and similarities between the Christian celebration of Harvest and the Jewish celebration of Sukkot were discussed and we identified that both faiths celebrate a significant event in Autumn;  each is a celebration where other people are remembered;  both faith communities pray to God and there is a commonality whereby food is shared.

Musical Maestros

 

We in Year 4 have been having a fabulous time learning to play various tunes on the glockenspiel this term.

Following the Charanga music scheme has allowed to become more knowlegable about both the theory and language of music, whilst having fun playing various musical pieces such as ‘DEF-inately’, ‘What’s Up?’ and ‘Strictly D’ to name but a few.

DEFinately…

We are currently learning and perfecting a traditional festive tune so… watch this space!
