New Playground Activities

As you have seen on the KS2 playground, we now have our very own basketball court with a soft surface. Gone is the dirty old useless grass. Horray!

The children will given the opportunity to play at some breaktimes and lunch times. Please stay off the surface with inappropriate footwear or dirty shoes.

Top Valley Sports

On Fridays of this term the children will be visting Top Valley Academy in PE to use their equipment and specialist sports leaders. This is a really exciting project between the two schools and one which allows the children to participate in different, fun sports like trampolining, dance mat training and basketball. Please make sure that the children have the correct PE kit in school on Fridays.

India and Hinduism

Our Spring Term theme is all to do with India. In Geography they will be investigating the country and making comparisons between Indian City/Village life with their own.

 

Other areas will be Indian food, dance, celebrations, rivers, famous places, cities, schools, work, animals and leisure. In art we will be creating Indian Rangoli patterns and in RE we will be focussing on Hinduism.
