SJ Maples 5SJM

4SJM have been hitting the headlines this morning in their literacy lesson. Watch out for these up and coming journalists! 📰

4SJM have been playing a range of health and well-being games, learning about fire safety, friendship skills, healthy eating and much more!

What a fantastic start to Year 4! 4SJM have been thinking about how to stay safe online, writing about their perfect summer day and creating their own stop motion animation based on diving giraffes! 🦒 🦒 🦒

Thank you so much to all the wonderful children and parents of 5SJM for your very kind and generous gifts. Wishing you all a wonderful and safe summer holiday. SJM xxx

In Science this week, we have been making it ‘rain’ inside the class!

Our children in Year 5 have been hugely successful in their cycling proficiency this week. Well done everyone.
