Blackwell Adventure
What an incredible day our Year 4 children had at Blackwell Adventure! From crate stacking and archery to climbing and tree trekking, they threw themselves into every activity with enthusiasm and determination.
We were blown away by their courage and willingness to step out of their comfort zones — conquering fears, encouraging one another, and always striving to do their best.
The support they showed each other was truly heartwarming, and the way they celebrated everyone’s achievements made us so proud.
Well done, Year 4 — you were absolutely amazing!

This week, the Woodpeckers stepped into the past, exploring the lives of the Celts and Romans. They imagined what it was like to be a Celt spotting Roman invaders coming over the horizon.
Inspired by what they learned, they created their own warriors and shields to represent both sides. Brilliant work, everyone!
This week the Woodpeckers have been exploring the story of Jacob's Dream and reflecting on its meaning. To deepen their understanding, they looked at how different artists have represented the story. Inspired by what they saw, the children then created their own wonderful interpretations. The results were creative and thought-provoking. Well done, Woodpeckers - fantastic work!
After a discussion about how we are all made in the image and likeness of God, the Woodpeckers explored newspapers to find examples of people showing respect, care and consideration for others and the world, as well as moments when these were not shown. It was a meaningful way to connect faith with real world events and reflect on how we are called to live out God's love every day.
Week 2 - Dictation Spellings - 19.09.25
The Woodpeckers explored the different types of teeth by looking at their own then learning their names, shapes, and functions – from biting incisors to grinding molars! After testing how their teeth work by munching on apples, they put their knowledge to the test by creating fantastic plasticine models. A brilliant hands-on way to learn about how our teeth help us every day!
