Eclipse class

 Last week, we celebrated a special week of Science activities. We took part in a live lesson all about farmers and the contribution they make to society. On Friday, we were extremely lucky to watch a series of experiments all about the wonder of Science. There were explosions, volcanic eruptions and a rainbow of colours. The children thoroughly enjoyed it and hopefully it sparked a fascination with Science that will last a lifetime!

 We celebrated Spanish Carnival in school with a special assembly all about the history of Carnival and how it is celebrated in Spain and across the world, followed by making Carnival masks and then taking part of a parade on the playground. Each class paraded their own unique creations. 

 On Friday, Eclipse Class took part in our school wide Oracy Day. This was a whole day focused on the development on strong speaking and listening skills. We used our Guidelines for Discussion to take part in several lessons, with all the activities focusing on a different oracy based skill. The children were fantastic and demonstrated some very high level speaking skills; using great vocabulary, reasoning skills, and group work throughout the day.
