This Week in Kestrels w/c 4th November 

We have been very busy already this week, making woolly mammoths and beginning to draft our instruction texts! 

Maths has been busy - the children have worked hard to master formal column subtraction with an exchange! 

Welcome Back!

Welcome back after the half term break. This term we will be focusing on Aylesbury in our lead topic of geography, and flowering plants in science. We look forward to welcoming you all back to school on Tuesday!

This Week in Kestrels w/c 7th October 

The children have had a very busy week in Kestrels. We learned about Stonehenge and made our own card henges! 

In English, we have learned how to identify verbs, subjects and to punctuate independent clauses correctly. In maths, we have moved on to addition and subtraction and have been working hard to develop our methods of partitioning in ones, tens and hundreds. 

In RE this week, we reeenacted the Hindu story of Rama and Sita.

This Week in Kestrels Class w/c 23rd September 

We had yet another successful week in school, working hard and continuing our learning. 

The children have been covering place value and number in maths, manipulating increasingly large numbers and demonstrating their ability to reason and explain when encountering problem solving questions. 

In English, the children have enjoyed learning about regular and irregular verbs and recapping our different types of nouns (with actions!)

Science was especially exciting this week, the children loved using chocolate bars to improve their understanding of igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. 

EDL was the highlight of the week. Kestrels class welcomed many visitors into the classroom and learned Chinese, Dutch and German
