Last week we supported Comic Relief's 40th birthday with an afternoon of fundraising fun.

Children and staff came to school dressed in red and 80's outfit. Everyone looked amazing!

Key Stage 2 pupils had the opportunity to learn more about the Solar System this week. A gentleman from Norwich astronomical society came and delivered a talk all about the Solar System and Space! The children asked some fabulous questions and discussed the theories of black holes and nebula formations, as well as learning about the planets and moons in our Solar System!

Sycamore class have been participating in the Road to RIAT (Royal International Air Tattoo) challenge today. They have spent time designing 3 prototype rockets, thinking carefully about how the size and shapes of the fuselage, nose cones and fins will affect the flight. They have looked at the forces of thrust and drag acting on the rockets.

Throughout this half term, during our after school Science club, children have been participating and engaging in a range of investigations. They have been learning how to construct 'fair tests' and investigate the questions they have created. So far, the children have investigated, 'Does the size of a balloon affect the distance it travels?' 'Does the size of a bottle affect the height a paper mouse can go?' and 'Does the size of an elastic band affect the distance a sweet can travel?'.

Our JRSO held a Be Bright Be Seen day on 22nd October where all the school was invited to attend in their brightest clothes to reinforce the need to be bright so they can be seen if out walking or cycling.
