🚀3-2-1 BLAST OFF!🚀 🛸🚀🛰️We may have inspired some children to become our future astronauts today!🛸🚀🛰️ What a wonderful, educational visit to The Space Expo in Noordwijk for our JSV Year 5 students! 🌖🌗🌘🌑🌒 #JSVYear5 #BSNBeyondTheClassroom

#JSVYear3 made an important discovery on the playground. Pieces of metal were hiding under the Autumn leaves. When we put them together, this is what we made 🤖🤖#TheIronMan

In the Dutch lessons, we acted out how Sinterklaas and Piet fill the shoes. A great opportunity to repeat the same language structures! @bsnjsv #jsvy4 #jsvdutch #bsnlanguages

Sinterklaas visited @bsnjsv and made a big mess, looking for his golden chocolateletter! Luckily he filled our 'schoenen' with mini chocolateletters. Dank u Sinterklaasje! #bsnlanguages #jsvdutch

#JSVYear3 finding their classroom in a total mess! Who created this chaos! Sint and his helpers of course. Finding a chocolate letter in our shoe was so exciting!👞🍫

#JSVYear3 enjoying gymnastics, this week. Balance and control were our objectives.🤸🤸‍♂️

Assemblies are a wonderful opportunity to learn about celebrations around the world. Students at JSV recently shared how they celebrate Diwali! #CharacterandCommunity

So proud of our staff and students who are working together to make positive changes in the world, our local and school community! 👏 @BSNJSV #CharacterandCommunity

#JSVYear3 demonstrating different representations for grouping and sharing. Making connections with multiplication to create families of sentences.✖️➗

#JSVYear3 exploring the difference between sharing and grouping. Using the counters really helps to visually see the difference.

We were excited to find out about 2 cultures in our #JSVYear6 culture cafe this week, Germany and England. Tasting delicious lebkuchen was a definite highlight!

#JSVYear3 testing different rocks for their properties. Which rock will make the best garden path? How can we find out? How will we make the test fair?

#JSVYear3 representing multiplication sentences in arrays. Using the counters helps us to manipulate our thinking.

Our #JSVYear6 Culture Cafe came from France this week. It was interesting to find out about the history of France as well as some fun facts.

#JSVYear3 enjoying Forest School. Some much needed sunshine on a November morning! How strong is Mr. Peck? Using the materials from the learning space to create a '"Tug of War". Mr. Peck was still smiling at the end 😀🌲

#JSVYear3 searching for features of Non-Chronological Texts. What do they all have? This research can help us to write our own reports.

#JSVYear3 are reading together. Listening to our partner, making our voice match the meaning.

What better way to start the term with a #JSVYear6 interhouse basketball competition. It was a wonderful way for the children to show the efforts of their learning during their recent basketball unit in PE. Well done to the winning house, Gouda!

Our first #JSVYear6 culture cafe this academic year taught us all about Argentina. It was interesting to learn about landmarks, animals, the tango, foods and, of course, Argentina’s famous footballers.
