Hedgehogs' Wow Starter_Spring Term
Date: 3rd Jan 2023 @ 9:03pm
Our Wow Starter for our Minibeasts Study Theme
We began our new study theme searching for minibeasts in our woodland. We found worms, spiders, a centipede and a woodlouse. But then came Dave...
Dave brought a whole host of minibeasts for a truly 'creepy crawly' show. We met Charlie the Hissing Cocroach; Millie, the Giant African Millipede; Rosie the Chile Rose Tarantula; Finando the Black Beauty Stick Insect and Pricilla the Flat Rock Scorpian. They were all very sociable. We even 'high fived' the tarantula and shock hands with the scorpian!
We later met some animals which like to eat the minibeasts, like Leonardo de Geko the Geko, Hooter the Barn Owl and Tina the Tenrec.
Finally we met some animals further up the food chain - some snakes.
We throroughly enjoyed our visitors today and are looking forward to learning lots more about these amazing creatures.

Anne Frank - A True Courageous Advocate
Date: 23rd Nov 2022 @ 10:14am
As theologists, Badgers’ Class (Year 5/6) have explored how Anne Frank’s faith helped her see the good in everything around her.
They started by learning about the basic history of the Holocaust before they learnt about the life of the courageous advocate Anne Frank. After ordering the key events in Anne’s life, they looked at how the Holocaust had an impact of her life.
Afterwards, they looked at some quotes from Anne Frank’s diary, and how her faith helped her to see the good in everything around her, despite what was happening to her and her family. They then thought carefully about which of our Christian values she was using to help her. A truly amazing courageous advocate – an inspiration to us all.

Badgers' Class have been creating sculptures out of modelling wire. Whilst creating their wire sculpture, they used a range of tools and materials to add shape and texture to their soldiers. They also learnt to use different tools including some wire cutters and pliers to cut and join the wire.

After discovering why we wear poppies on Remembrance Day, we looked at Georgina O’Keeffe’s poppies. We then drew our own pictures of poppies and made some poppies out of wire and red resin. We used different techniques including smudging and blending to create the different perspectives in a poppy. Whilst creating our wire poppies, we learnt to use some wire cutters and pliers to cut and join the wire, and a drill to make a hole in the wood to stand my poppies in.

a steam train, a tram, a lorry, horse drawn carriages, bicycles and cars.
We also met a very large bird! Not a mode a transport but who couldn't visit Liverpool without meeting the Liver birds?

Hedgehogs' Class travel back in time.
Date: 6th Sep 2022 @ 9:19pm
Hedgehogs' Class were transported back in time today, to see how we could have travelled in the past.
A time machine was delivered yesterday. Mrs B followed the instructions carefully to make the machine, however there were a few parts left over when she'd finished!
We wanted to travel to the future so that we could go shopping in a fast car but the machine took us back in time to the 1800's - oops! Mrs B's car had changed into a pony and trap. We loved meeting Chance the pony and we learnt how it felt to travel by this unexpected mode of travel. It was a bit bumpy, but lots of fun.
