Our children have loved taking part in PE in the hall. They have been balancing, throwing beanbags into hoops, rolling and jumping!

Pancake Day…
We had a fabulous time on Shrove Tuesday in EYFS … we mixed pancakes, we investigated the ingredients needed to make pancakes, we ate pancakes and we had a pancake race on the big field.
Our Digital Leaders
Our brand new Digital Leaders had a fun-filled time at XP East today as we met up with other students from across our trust. We began the day with a brilliant tour of XP and XP East before working hard to understand the role of a digital leader, why digital leaders are important and the qualities a digital leader should have.
Miss Tinker and I were blown away by the children’s efforts and collaboration but also the courage they demonstrated to share their ideas in front of a huge audience of over 120 staff and students! A great day was had by all and the children will now share their learning with the leadership team at Norton. Thank you to Mr. Portman and XP for having us for the day…we had a great time!
Well done everyone – you were fantastic.

Year 2 are meteorologists!
Year 2 have worked extremely hard today to become meteorologists.
We started by looking at the seasons and how the weather changes in each season. The children then worked in collaborative groups to make their own weather forecast which they then rehearsed and recorded.
I’m sure you’ll agree that they have done a fantastic job! Mrs Chadwick and I were blown away by you all.

Evie blew us away today in Class 5 – she has been busy over half term producing her very own book about sea creatures. I was so impressed with how she confidently shared her learning with the whole class – what a superstar ⭐️

Today we were Persevering Parrots with some new vocabulary as part of our Geography case study for our expedition – How will what I do today impact the world tomorrow?
The children used dictionaries and iPads to find the definition of their words and then came up with the characteristics, examples and non examples.
We then took it in turns to present our knowledge about our new word to the rest of the class – everyone did a fantastic job! Well done Class Five.

Well done, you were persevering parrots especially when using the dictionaries!
Feature Detectives
Class Five spent their reading lesson this morning exploring The Big Book of the Blue. We looked at lots of other non-fiction texts and picked out the main features – we talked about features like contents pages, the index and subheadings.
Being Geographers
This week Class 4 went on a scavenger hunt to find anything that links to geography. We discussed what geography means and looked at maps, atlases and earth globes to learn about coninents and oceans.
