This week, we were visited by local children’s author Ian Hornett, who told us about how he became a writer and where he gets his ideas from. We also took part in an inspiring writing workshop, where we were encouraged to free write and not worry about grammar or spelling. This helped us to be creative, confident and enjoy writing even more.

This week we had EPC coaches come in to introduce our Netball teaching for the term. We focussed on passing skills; by the end of the session we were perfecting our chest, bounce and shoulder passes. We're now looking forward to building on these skills throughout the term so we can use them at the end of term in a Year 6 Netball match!

We have had a wonderful start to the new year, returning to a new term after the Christmas break. We kicked off with our New topic 'Brilliant Brazil' sampling samba music which got our toes tapping. We created a factfile about Brazil and learnt about the different biomes in Geography. We're really looking forward to learning more about the delights of Brazil, including it's culture, food and traditions.
