Science – parts of the flower

Kingfishers have continued to learn about the parts of a plant and why they need them, this week they have been learning about the flower.

They worked together to build the parts of a flower out of play doh, labelled each part and then explained what each part did.

Norfolk County Music Festival 2024

Our Ukulele Ensemble and Salsa Band both performed at the Norfolk County Music Festival last Friday with excellent results. Our Ukulele Ensemble were given the highest marking of ‘Outstanding’ for what the judge called “an exceptional performance, both artistically and technically.” The confidence of this group comprised of 41 children from Years 4 to 6 grew as the performance went on and the last song, ‘Green, Green Grass’ by George Ezra, was described as having “fantastic confidence and strength of rhythmic playing, particularly on the stops. Love expressive singing. Nice keyboards too.” 

Our Salsa Band received ‘Highly commended +’ for “a generally correct and creditable performance with greater evidence of artistic interpretation.” Children also had to persevere through some technical hitches. We are very proud of all the children who took part, for the dedication to practice and their performances on the day. A big thank you goes to Mr Leaver, Mr Bell and Mr Weitz for their support and time in getting the children ready for the performances.

Greek Myths

Over the last term Kingfisher class have been learning about many Greek Myths. All the pupils in Kingfisher class have written the story of Theseus and Minotaur. They have all spent time editing and improving their work. Finally they published their stories in a book, which they shared with Coots, Bitterns and Grebes. Well done, Kingfisher class. Everyone enjoyed your stories.

Exploring Electrical Circuits

Grebes have been making electrical circuits this week, learning to identify electrical components, create simple (and some not-so-simple!) circuits and conducting fair tests to identify problems with circuits that were not working.
