Last week, Nursery were reading the story of ‘The Little Red Hen’. They made their own bread from scratch!

During science week Year 3 have loved investigating the topics growth and light. We began the week by researching two scientists: Agnes Arber and Thomas Edison. We have completed many fun experiments, from rainbow roses, lava lamps to creating our own shadow puppets. #ScienceWeek

In celebration of Science Week, Class 6 have been exploring the concept of ‘growth’. We have investigated the growth of mould on bread based on particular environmental factors, the growth of crystals using a number of agents and have had a go at growing our own rainbows! 🔭🥼🌈

Thank you to everyone who joined us yesterday for our Science Fair. It was wonderful to share with you all the experiments and investigations that have been happening across Latton Green this week in celebration of Science Week. 🧫🔭🥼🧪

During Science week, Year 5 researched Sir Isaac Newton and compiled a fact file. We also carried out gravity investigations and an experiment to see if the environment would affect how crystals grow. As well as all of this, the children took part in a Mars Day Special via Zoom.

This week Class 1 have been celebrating science week. We have learned the importance of fair testing, conducted our own experiments and engaged in lots of fun science activities. #ScienceWeek

Class 6 got a shock when they walked into the classroom to find their chairs neatly stacked at the back with a letter, expressing how fed up they were! The children then wrote persuasive letters to the chairs, explaining why they should return to the classroom! 📝✏️🪑

Last week, year 5 visited St Mary Magdelene Church, where we met Father James. He told us about the last weeks of Jesus' life and we were reenacted some of the story, which was lots of fun. The children gained so much information and used this in their work the following day.

Yesterday we celebrated World Book Day. One of our favourite activities was sharing books with another class. Here, we can see year 5 reading with year 2, and year 6 reading with year 3. The children loved swapping stories and exploring new books. #WorldBookDay

We are celebrating #SaferInternetDay today! Find out how you can join us at safer Internet day.org.uk @UK_SIC

On Friday, we celebrated Number Day. Throughout Latton Green, children enjoyed exploring numbers and engaging with a variety of fun maths activities and discussions. #NSPCCNumberDay

Last week, Nursery and Reception thoroughly enjoyed the That Bubble Man Show, where they explored bubbles and even got the chance to be inside a bubble! Thank you to @thatbubbleman

We would like to invite primary trainee teachers, seeking an ECT post, to attend an open day for potential new starters at NET Academies for the academic year 2022/23. Click here: trybooking.co.uk/BLTD for more information. #NET_ShapingFutures

The Hive 🐝 Launching 24th January

This afternoon, Class 6 and Reception came together to share stories. The year 6 children enjoyed the responsibility of reading and asking questions like a teacher would, and the reception children were excited to hear some stories from their buddies.

On Friday, the children had a non-uniform day in aid of Children in Need and the FOLGA. Here’s some of our classes enjoying the comfort of their fluffy pyjamas and chosen outfits!

This week, Class Two learnt about the importance of Remembrance Day. In honour of the soldiers, the children made mosaic poppies to decorate their classroom door.
