Year six are working hard towards their exams at the moment but we found time to try new ways of solving problems in maths with cuisinaire rods and organised lists helping us solve ratio problems. Hard work, but very worthwhile.
Waste week!, by Miss Glover
Date: 16th Mar 2016 @ 10:38pm
Last week was waste week! One of our core values at Queen's Park is respect. We have been teaching children about how we ALL need to respect the environment. We can do this by NOT dropping litter, reduce our waste and recycle materials. We had a Year One litter pick to look after our school and local community. Picking up rubbish helps us to protect, respect and love our world.
Yoga , by Miss Glover

World Book Day Yoga!! For world book day Year One looked at stories from a different culture. Our country was India. We looked at some stories set in India and learnt some facts about the country.
During World Book Day we had a special visit from a Yoga teacher. The Yoga teacher took us all on a journey through India. We learnt more about the possible sights, sounds and smells of India. The children explored this through movement and traditional yoga positions. We had a lovely, relaxing morning.

Spring is here!! We are all so excited that spring is here. In topic lessons we have been looking at the four seasons, working scientifally by making observations.

Check out our pictures.

Today saw the opportunity for pupils from Year 5 and 6 to take part in an after school football club!
We had 14 eager pupils take part in activities to improve their dribbling and ball control. All pupils listened well and had lots of fun, we even had a game at the end of the session too!
Im sure we will have lots of returning faces and some new ones too next week!

Celebrating Difference , by Mrs Kellett
Date: 15th Mar 2016 @ 10:34pm
Today's worship was all about how we look different on the outside but are all the same on the inside. I brought in some eggs from my kitchen and we discussed how they were all different colours. I asked for volunteers to come up and crack the eggs. What the children very clearly saw was that we can all be different on the outside but on the inside we are all the same.

Coming soon!# Our very own fashion show! #We are so excited!, by Miss Hughes
Date: 10th Mar 2016 @ 3:50pm
During TGIF this term I have been working with children from years 3,4,5 and ,6 to create some new dresses and bags you will never have seen before. We are using plastic shopping bags, carrier bags (all shapes and sizes) and bin bags. The children have been designing and creating their ideas over the past few weeks. They are looking amazing and we have got some talented fashion designers here at Queen's Park. To celebrate the talent we have found we are working on presenting our designs in a fashion show later this term. Move over New York fashion week and welcome Queen's Park fashion design extravaganza. All the children that have been designing their dresses and bags will be wearing them in the show.
We can't wait to show them off!

Every week in Q3 we earn marbles everytime an adult has noticed us making the right choices and being good friends. Each marble is worth 2 minutes. Over the past few weeks,Q3 have earned 56 minutes (Miss Hughes has decided to round it up to an hour!).
Last week we decided we would like to have a PJ afternoon.- slippers, teddies, popcorn and a film in our pyjamas.
Well done Q3! You have really shown me that you can be the best class in the world!
Stone Age Boy left a message, by Miss Hughes
Date: 10th Mar 2016 @ 2:46pm
On our way back from worship on Monday, we noticed that something was different about our classroom. The lights had been turned off and there seemed to be lots of objects out on the tables. After opening the door we began to investigate the objects to see what they might be for.
Stone age boy has been leaving us notes each day this week, giving us missions to complete. He has been sending Miss Hughes video messages to check up on our writing. He left lots of ancient artefacts to inspire our writing. This week, we have been learning about main and subordinate clauses to form interesting sentences. Our challenge is to write an 100 word saga by the end of the week. The best stories will be published in a book .
We can't wait to show them off.

What a fantastic start to Waste Week. All the classes went out today to collect the rubbish around school. The children were shocked at how much rubbish they collected in such a short space of time. Let's continue to work together to keep Queen's Park looking great! Thank you to Mr Ward and the Eco Committee for organising the week's events.
