For the last two weeks, Year 3 have been looking at money in maths. First they learned to partition money into pounds and pence.
They have also learned to convert between pounds and pence, add different amount of money and subtract money to find change!
Are you taller or shorter than an Emperor Penguin?
Our extremely talented resident artist, Miss Whitton, painted a life sized Emperor Penguin on our Hub door in order for us to compare our height.
Davey was so excited to be special guest during swimming lessons with Ganton Primary School. He absolutely loved splashing Mrs Rowbottom. Thank you Ganton!
Excellent cutting skills from Hub 1. We created amazing penguins out of 2D shapes linked to our topic work. Can you identify the shapes we used?
This week Y5/6 have been making visits into the City centre to visit significant sites linked with out topic: Hull’s fishing heritage. The aim of the trip was to pay tribute to the lives lost during the Triple Trawler Tragedy, and important event in the history of Hull and the school’s local community.
We started with the Big Lil mural on Midland Street – we’ll be learning about Big Lil’s impact soon!
Next, we visited the trawler memorial in Zebedee’s yard. The children laid a wreath in memory of the lives lost aboard the St Romans, Kingston Peridot and Ross Cleveland and observed a minutes silence.
Next we went to have a look at Hull’s last fishing trawler, the Arctic Corsair. It was amazing to see a real trawler up close!
Our next stop was Humber Street Gallery to see the real Dead Bod! We’ve been learning about this local legend and children have written short stories about it!
Our final stop was the ‘Knife Angel’, a towering sculpture made up of over 100,000 knives as part of the #NoMoreKnives campaign.
On a Monday lunch time in Miss Stathers’ classroom there is a mindful colouring club. The children can come along, listen to relaxing music and colour in a variety of mindful pictures. 
We love Mondays!
Our PE unit this term is Rugby and we are very fortunate to be working with Hull FC for this. The rugby coach has been teaching us techniques for holding the ball, carrying the ball and intercepting. We can’t wait for next Monday!
This week the children in Year 1 have worked extremely hard in their English lessons.
They have been engaging in lots of activities based on the story Lost and Found such as; describing a Polar Explorer, sequencing the story and changing parts of story!
They have finished the week off by engaging in their Hot Writes and have produced some FANTASTIC pieces of work!
This morning we had a visit from Callum Burton (goal keeper for Hull City). Callum had come in to present certificates to children who have successfully completed the Premier League’s ‘Reading Stars’ program, which Tigers Trust have been delivering for the past eight weeks.
The children have been working incredibly hard on their reading and have made some excellent progress and developed their love for reading! Well done!
Certificates all round for their hard work!
The children learning about the importance of reading.
The school was also presented with a poetry pack to widen children’s reading choices.
This week Year 3/4 have been discovering what lies beneath the crust of the Earth. We opened a model to discover that the Earth is made up of layers.
We then created our own model including the inner core, outer core, mantle and crust.
