Internet Safety in Year 5 and 6

Children in upper Key Stage 2 took part in Internet Safety activities on Tuesday. The students showed impressive understanding of how to protect personal information online, as well as spotting signs of scam. They knew the term ‘phishing’ and were able to identify safe ways to create an online profile, as well as spotting the dangerous ways to present personal information. A fun game using dice was to create a safe password by rolling, and seeing what you get. An example, if you rolled all ones, would be Happypink1dolphin£

The children demonstrated their maturity and impressed throughout.

Christmas Jars Needed

Hi everyone,

In the coming weeks Class 8 are going to be making Christmas light jars. If you could save any jars you may have at home and bring them into school we would greatly appreciate it. Jars can range in size but a jam jar size would be perfect.

Many thanks

Geography: Identifying Settlements and Land Use

This week Class 8,9 and 10 started their new Geography unit of work called Settlement and Migration. They used OS maps to identify different types of settlements. The settlements they identified were hamlets, villages, towns, cities, market towns and ports. To be able to identify them they had to understand the differences between each settlement.

 

After identifying different settlements, they explored how the land was being used in each settlement. They identified residential use, industrial use, commercial use, recreational use and transportation.

Computing: National Coding Week in Class 8, 9, 10

National Coding Week 

For National Coding Week, Class 8, 9 and 10 focused on the theme AI. They discussed the uses of AI and how they use it themselves at home. Also, they discussed that coding is used to power the digital world. Codes tell a computers, apps, smartphones, tablets and video games what it needs to do by typing in step-by-step commands for the computer to follow. For their first task they used a binary code to create words for their partner to solve. Then they used codes to create instructions on a grid which their partner needed to follow to create a pattern on their grid.

Fundraising Group

A big thank you to our Parent Fundraising Group who have allocated £1,000 towards school trips. Each class will have £100 towards an in-school workshop or an educational trip out.

This will allow trips to be subsides for all children.

The fundraising group had their first meeting of the new academic year and have plans for a spooky disco in October and a Christmas fair in December.

The group are always looking for new parents to join and welcome anyone who can volunteer to help run the events.  If you are interested, please let the office know.
