U9s girls football

Well done to the girls who took part in a football match this afternoon on the school field against Grange Park, Telford. All of the girls wanted to play in a competitive football game aganst another school and they all enjoyed themselves, showing determination and work ethic on the pitch. Thank you to the staff and girls from Grange Park who drove over to play the game at our school. It was a pleasure to play against a group of delightful, well-mannered young girls.

Balancing and Travelling in Gymnastics

Tigers worked well in groups during our gymnastics session last week. They focused on practising different point balances and travelling in different ways. They designed their own routine in their groups and then performed it to the class. We have some fantastic gymnasts in Tiger Class and I can’t wait to see how they will inspire each other over the coming weeks!

Locating tropical rainforests

This week we have started our new geography topic – ‘Rainforests’. Children used atlases to locate tropical rainforests as well as learning about the equator, the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn.

Shadows 🔦

In our science topic on light, children have been investigating how shadows can change. We looked at what happens to a shadow when the object moves further away from a light source and also how the angle of the light source changes the length of a shadow. 🔦

Investigating reflection

🔦 Tigers had lots of fun this afternoon investigating mirrors and reflection. We have been learning that light travels in straight lines but the direction can be changed by using reflective objects such as mirrors. Children then drew clear, scientific diagrams to demonstrate their findings. 🔦
