The children have made us proud yet again this fortnight. Not only have they been busy practising for SATs but they have also transported us into the world of weird and wonderful in their writing. Entering through different portals, the norm has been well and truly disrupted! We have witnessed everything from jars of twitching fingers, bottles of unicorn tears and even fruit with faces!
In science, we have been learning about evolution and natural selection. Fascinated by Darwin’s finches, we conducted our own ‘Battle of the Beaks’ investigations exploring how different beak types are suited to different food sources. We were so impressed with the Woodpecker finches who used tools to pick up larvae from trees.
Our fortnight has been rounded off by a memorable trip to the O2 where we were part of the Young Voices choir. The children were real professionals and brought the house down (while also raising the roof!) singing everything from classic Beatles tracks to The Lion King soundtrack. We couldn’t have been more impressed with their singing, dancing, camaraderie and behaviour. A night to remember for us all!
As we head into SATs week, we want to recognise just how hard the children have worked, the excellent progress they have made and their wonderfully positive attitudes to all they do. Well done, Kahlo and Da Vinci - you are all fantastic.
