Today we have been painting rainbows but we had to mix some colours using red, yellow and blue.Then we had to paint our rainbows in shades, making them darker or lighter.This afternoon we designed our windows of hope - they look amazingly!
A big thank you to Robin who came in today to help us make our windmills for our planter at the front of school. We loved drilling , hammering and sawing.

Online Safety, by Mr Pearson
Date: 3rd Mar 2021 @ 4:59pm
The online world offers amazing opportunities but also brings elements of potential risk and for Parents, making sense of the online world can appear to be an enormous challenge. Unlike previous generations, the online environment is an integral part of children’s lives and therefore we can no longer consider their wellbeing or safety without also considering their relationship to technology. However, staying safe online is fundamentally about behaviours rather than the technology itself and if approached from this perspective, we can begin to gain confidence to support our children.
The link below provides some useful tips for Parents when discussing the online environment with children. In addition, this page also contains a variety of resources which can be used to develop knowledge and confidence to support children. You will also find useful information in the news and events section of the site through the link at the bottom of the page.
