Thank you to everyone who came to support Science Club's Big Launch on Friday! The weather conditions were perfect - the rockets, not so much! However, we will learn from our mistakes to make our rockets even better next time! #science #stem #reach2trust ~vayaspace

You know your rocket is a good one when it lands on the school roof! #stem #vayaspace #steam #rockets #reach2trust

In Art, Year Three are learning about the American sculptor Alexander Calder. This week we looked at his graphic line art. The children drew concentric circles to represent a fingerprint then added 3D shapes to create their own inspired version of this artwork! #art #reach2trust

We were very fortunate to join an online lesson with Kate Pankhurst, author of the Fantastically Great Women series, who led us in a live draw-along! It was fantastic! #katepankurst #worldofstories #art #writing #reach2trust

Science Club have started to create their rocket! They also tested out their parachutes - we had mixed results! #vayaspace #nasa #reach2trust #stem #steam

How does the weather impact a rocket launch? Science Club investigated this question today using our very own weather station! #vayaspace #stem #steam #science #reach2trust #space #nasa

Check out this incredible Year Six Pop Art, created by reverse painting on acetate paper! Amazing! #art #reach2trust #popart
