Term 3

Victorian Bristol

This term we will be focusing on History in our Victorian Bristol topic. We're looking forward to finding out what life was like for children and comparing it to other periods we've learnt about. We will be welcoming The History Squad into school to bring our learning to life as well as reading Berlie Doherty's story 'Street Child'. In Art we will be looking at a variety of Victorian artists and themes throughout this era.

Here's what we've been up to in Term 2!

Year 5 had a truly adventurous day in the Wilderness as part of their Intrepid Explorers topic. The children threw themselves into a range of exciting activities, from learning how to filter water and navigating through orienteering challenges, to sparking flames with flint and steel and constructing sturdy dens. Creativity flourished as they painted pebbles with uplifting messages of hope and expressed themselves through mud art, making the day both practical and inspiring. A huge thank you goes to the parents who joined us and gave their time to help—your support made the experience even more special.

Here's what we've been up to in Term 1!

This term, we travelled back in time to Ancient Greece—a world filled with myths, monsters, heroes and heroines! From learning about the mighty Spartans during an exciting workshop to dressing up in traditional Greek clothing, we truly brought history to life. We even showed off our culinary skills by making (and tasting!) our very own Greek salad and dessert. It’s been a fantastic start to the year, full of fun, learning and a little bit of ancient magic!
