Careers Carousel, by Miss Ellis
Date: 7th Jul 2016 @ 3:41pm
After working alongside The St Helens' Chamber of Commence all year on a variety of different projects, Year Six ended their primary experience today by participating in a careers workshop. Twenty-three local business' gave up their time and expertise to come to school and talk to all the year six pupils about their workplaces, how they have achieved success and aiming high to achieve aspirations. All of the pupils really enjoyed the morning and many of our visitors commented on the children's manners, attitude and engagement. They were a credit to our school. Hopefully some children will find that a seed of an idea has been planted about their future vocation... maybe some will come back in the future to talk about their work. 😃👍🏻
Year 5's surprise visitor, by Miss Stubbs
Date: 7th Jul 2016 @ 8:30am
Last week, year 5 had a surprise visitor, who burst in during class worship. He informed the children that he was hiding from the constables and needed a place to hide for the day.
He introduced himself as a highway man and told the children stories about his life and gave them information about the reality of life as a highway man.
The children wrote a ballad, adapted the original newspaper stories so they told the truth and created new wanted posters to stick up around the town.
This really helped the children visualise what a highway man was like, which linked to the highway man poem that year 5 are studying in class.

We all had a wonderful day at Knowslry Safari Park today and the children learnt lots, both within the workshop sessions linked to various areas of our Science curriculum and during our guided tour of the park. Our guide on the coach Sue taught us so much about each species and we even got to know about the personalities of some animals.

Lockerbie Manor Year 6 Residential, by Mr Warner
Date: 29th Jun 2016 @ 9:40pm
After a relatively short journey up here, torrential rain greeted us. But by mid afternoon the sun threatened to make an appearance and the evening activities were actually completed with partially blue skies and some sunshine. An wide range of choices for the evening meal, with steak pie appearing to be the most popular choice. Two activities completed for all three groups with the obstacle course proving to be by far the dirtiest! Sorry parents! 😀
It will be an early night tonight (the teachers hope), but with four activities lined up for tomorrow and an early start, we hope the children will be wanting their beds relatively early.
More pictures to follow once they all all uploaded onto one device.
P.S The children really like the pods.

Gold fever in P1, by Miss Fisher
Date: 28th Jun 2016 @ 9:31pm
While Pirate Pete has been in search of his favourite booty, gleaming gold, the children of P1 have been exploring an artist who also had a liking for gold. The children used viewfinders to focus in on the patterns used in the Gustav Klimt portrait of Adele Bloch-Bauer. They then created their own patterns, using gold paint, which will be collaged together to make own own version of the well known painting.
Candy Island Ahoy! , by Miss Fisher
Date: 28th Jun 2016 @ 9:03pm
Pirate Pete, the main character from our story this week, has washed ashore Candy Island on his voyage for gold! The children had a taste sensation when trying weird and wonderful sweets. From this activity we gathered adjectives to use in our writing.
