• Maths and Munch

  Wed 19 Oct 2016

  Our 'Maths and Munch' days are going really well in school. The children are thoroughly enjoying having their parents in to come and eat lunch and share some of the activities they do during maths lessons.

   

  Parents have commented on how enjoyable they find coming into school and witnessing how maths is taught in lessons. Parents have also commented on how creative the resources are that are used to support children's learning. 

   

  "I hope mam's and dad's really enjoy coming for lunch at school because I like it!" (Jayden - Year 1)

   

  "It's so different from how we were taught at school. It really helps to see how we can help at home".

   

  "I love 'Maths and Munch' because I learn new things. I like having my dad with me because he is always funny and I like having lunch with him." (Gracie - Year 1) 

   

  "I like missing break to come and do maths with parents because I love maths!" (Jayden - Year 2)

• Year 5 River Fieldwork

  Tue 11 Oct 2016

  The year 5 children have been learning about the local rivers in Northumberland.  They recently conducted a river study by tracking the River Aln downstream observing its physical and environmental changes as it flowed form source to mouth. It was a great opportunity for them to develop their geographical skills.

   

  " I really liked the trip, we had to do a lot of work before going; like map reading, compass reading and we had to learn about coordinates."

  (Jed - Year 5) 

   

  "We have never learned anything like this before, and we have never been on a trip like that before, It was really fun! I really liked taking part in the risk assessment we learned that there are lots of dangers around.  (Olivia - Year 5)
