The children in Foundation have been very enthusiastic with our new core book ‘Funny Bones’.
We have started our project off by creating our own skeleton pictures and “dark, dark houses”.
This week we are learning all about our core book ‘Funny Bones’. To ignite our project we were very excited to have a visit from a paramedic.
We learnt all about what a paramedic does, what you would find in an ambulance and what to do if you had a cut on your arm. We had great fun bandaging up each other!
Yesterday your teachers met in small teams to help each other move forward in their learning. Their focus was -providing you with good feedback. They worked in trios so that they were able to provide each other with good questions, positive ideas and ways to improve. There was some excellent learning talk happening. Can you spot some learning zones 4 and 5 ‘s in the pictures below?
In Foundation we believe in the spirit of the forest schools ethos and try to get outside to explore as much as possible.
The children in Foundation have been working as a team to create eco art using the things that we have been finding outside in autumn.
Take a look at our big ‘Art Attacks’, we had a blast making them!
Year 6 have been in learning zone 5 all afternoon! We have been researching Bletchley Park and planning our project product. Phew! We’re exhausted!
Today a group of teachers visited Volkswagen Head office in Blakelands to embark upon our next whole school learning project. We planned and worked alongside mechanical engineers, market researchers and logistical experts to put together an amazing collection of mini projects linking to real life situations at Volkswagen Group. This project will take place in a couple of weeks time and we will be presenting our learning at Head Office in November – we can’t wait! If any parents are reading this who work at Volkswagen – please come and see us so that you can be involved too! We hope to build upon the success of our last business driven project at Network Rail. Here are a few sneaky pictures of the teachers having a tour! 
On Friday 26th September we held our coffee morning to be a part of Macmillan’s biggest fundraising event. This event raised money for people living with cancer. Our Coffee Morning was a great excuse to get our friends together for coffee and cake, and raise money for a good cause.
The cakes were amazing and what a great turn out!
Welcome to Foundation! The teachers in Early Years were delighted to welcome all of the children to Foundation last week. Everyone has settled well and are very involved in their learning around our unit.
This week the children have been very busy in Foundation looking at the autumn leaves that are falling in our playground.
We spent the day looking closely at the colours of the autumn leaves and we then made a picture using the colours that we could see.
We worked as a team to paint, cut, glue and colour our picture. Everyone was very proud of our picture. We can’t wait to learn more tomorrow!
