North Wheatley Topaz Class

We were very lucky to be given an insight into the life of a Doctor today, when we were visited by Pete. He shared lots of inspiring hands-on learning with us, inspiring and informing our pupils about the importance of science in all of ours lives. #sciencecapital #STEM

Exciting times at school today! It’s the first day of our science week! Keep posted for information about our interesting learning linked to our theme: ‘future scientists’. #PSQM #sciencecapital #STEM

Well done to our amazing year 6 children! We couldn’t be prouder of you! 😍 Lots of celebration this afternoon 🎉 … let the Kingswood countdown begin!

As we approach the end point of our art learning for this half term, we can see lots of development in our understanding of the use of form, line and colour to create impact in our art. We are excited to share our final collaborative pieces soon! #artist #drawing #sketching

Thank you to the whole NW community for every penny donated as part of our pyjama day earlier this term. We raised a massive £331 (+£61.28 gift aid) and have received a special thank you from @SheffChildrens - The Children’s Hospital Charity. He is sat proudly in our reception.😍

We enjoyed using concrete and pictorial strategies in maths today to form algebraic expressions. It was brilliant to see how each pupil used the resources in a different but effective way #WhiteRoseMaths

We had a great lesson with @SubjectRevolt, cracking codes to escape #crowcastle. Some fantastic team work and enthusiasm for reading was displayed by all teams. Well done #NWTopaz #NWAmethyst

A quick and fun SPaG challenge. Showcase your knowledge of hyphens by creating an informative leaflet. There was lots of knowledge being shared in fun and creative ways. Well done #NWTopaz #NWAmethyst #Testbase

We put our ratio knowledge into practice today. We followed a recipe and calculated the quantities of ingredients needed to make different numbers of cakes. #NWstem #WhiteRoseMaths

🔬🧪FEED YOUR CURIOSITY 🧬🔭 We are celebrating all things #science as we work towards the Primary Science Quality Mark @Psqm_HQ. We are excited share the Festival of Science and Curiosity which will be taking place locally over the coming weeks. @NottsFOSAC . Check it out ⬇️

It’s been fantastic to launch our NW science club, with our KS1 pupils being invited to come along to join in with fun and hands on science learning as an extra- curricular activity. #My_ScienceClub #Psqm_HQ

This half term in Topaz, we have been recapping our prior learning about forces during our science lessons. We have used this as an opportunity to build on our understanding of how to conduct comparative and fair tests. #NWSTEM #PSQM #STEM

Building on our prior learning in a 30 minute challenge to create a BODMAS game. We had great fun, whilst further embedding our learning into our working memories. #NWTopaz #NWAmethyst

Fabulous afternoon for Amethyst and Topaz class who have all completed their Mini Medics training. Well Done North Wheatley, we are proud of you 👍🏻.

What a wonderful day! I have had to hold back the tears today. Watching the whole school together having the most amazing time has been so emotional. Thank you to all the staff, volunteers and to the staff @SheffieldLyceum but most importantly to the children for being AMAZING!❤️

Today was the last Open The Book worship of 2022 and it was lovely to welcome the team into school. We love going up to church for OTB but it was great to have the team in school after so long. Thank you OTB and to the @biblesociety for this years Christmas story #amazingdays

We have been experimenting and testing ideas using digital media in art today. After building up our knowledge and understanding of Victorian silhouettes we have started generating our own ideas in preparation for creating our own responses. #primaryart #DigitalArtist

Thank you to Mrs Sykes for leading this mornings #RemembranceDay service in Church and to the year 5/6 children for their thoughtful and respectful contributions. A beautiful community service. #PoppyAppeal #WeWillRememberThem

So proud of Topaz class for their use of the skills they have developed this half term to create their final products in design and technology. Fully functional desk lamps, inspired by the arts and crafts movement. #STEM #crosscurricularlearning #Topaz

We are applying our learning of the arts and crafts movement in art and our learning about electrical circuits in science to create some exciting products in D&T. We can’t wait to get making them next week! #STEM #PrimaryScience #D&T
