Tigers Skipping
Tigers had a fun in the sun this morning when taking part in the school skipping project. We are going to work on our skipping skills during break and lunchtimes to help us to become skipping superstars!
Sophia's TIME TO SHINE
Sophia's Time to Shine was all about her interest in Manga, which is a style of Japanese comic books. Sophia showed everyone how to draw eyes in a Manga style.
Well done Sophia, you've taught us lots about your hobby!
Tara's Time to shine
Tara wanted to tell us all about Kumon. It's an after school activity where you can go for extra learning in Maths and English.
Tara explained that she enjoys it because it sets her a challenge to move up a level in your learning. Well done, Tara!
Tigers Class - Fieldwork Visit to Hamstley
We had a fantastic day at Hamsterley Forest carrying out orienteering activities, river fieldwork and den building. We used a compass and compass directions to find hidden treasures, used an orienteering map to locate control points, produced sketch maps, created a river bed profile by measuring depth across the width, calculated river velocity on the inside and outside of meander and even had time to construct dens. The sun shone and so did our superb geographical knowledge - well done, Tigers!

Anzor's time to shine
Anzor made and gave a fantastic presentation all about his many hobbies. We discovered that he's been playing the piano since he was six years old and tries to practise every day. He's performed in three concerts and he showed us a video clip of one performance. Anzor's other hobbies include chess, swimming, football and Taekwando. Well done, Anzor! You definitely make the most of your spare time!
Sam's Time to Shine
This week, Sam shared his fantastic knowledge about gemstones with us. We learnt all about their formation and different types that exist. We were also lucky enough to see some gemstones from Sam's personal collection - our class favourite was the Tiger's Eye! It was wonderful to see you speaking with such cofidenece and passion about your chosen subject. Thank you so much, Sam!

Greek Day
On Thursday Year 3 and 4 were transformed into Ancient Greek Gods, Goddesses and Soldiers for the day! We had great fun making a Greek Salad, taking part in a treasure hunt for mythical creatures, playing Ancient Greek Olympic sports, making a water clock and finally making an ancient Greek vase from clay. The children had a great time!
Durham Dash
On Wednesday evening, 31 pupils from KS2 completed in the Durham Dash at Beamish Museum alongside 33 other schools! The children did amazingly well, with our school winning 4 medals!
Mohamed Time to shine
Mohamed shared an interesting and detailed presentation all about his passion for football. He clearly loves this sport and has enjoyed many opportunities to play matches around the UK. Well done, Mohamed!
Adam Bushnell visit
Year 3 and 4 thoroughly enjoyed working with Adam Bushnell this week. In the morning we created our own mythical beasts, then used adjectives and adverbs to describe their appearance and behaviour. In the afternoon we designed our mythical heroes and used AI to generate their names and attributes. We also had the opportunity to wear armour and handle weapons.
Ali's Time to Shine
Ali had spent weeks preparing for his Time to Shine and that was made clear today during his fabulous presentation entitled 'Me in my World'. He worked so hard to create a PowerPoint along with supporting handouts for the class to help him share with us more about his talents, beliefs and passions in life. He even added a little humour with an trick blue screen of death - Mrs Chadwick was worried for a while! It was wonderful to learn more about you Ali. Keep shining like the star that you are. 🌟

Thank you for teaching us all something new today, Robbie!
Y3 & 4 Science
Year 3 and 4 had great fun in Science working in pairs to create a magnetic maze game! After designing and sticking down our ‘lolly stick’ maze we used a paper clip and a magnet (underneath the card) to pull the magnetic object from the starting point to the finish line.
After some practise turns we timed each other to see who could move the paper clip, using the magnet, from start to finish the fastest!
Year 3 & 4 History lesson
In a recent history lesson, Tigers enjoyed taking part in a simulation activity to see how important trade was for Ancient Egypt to become powerful and how much it depended on being able to produce grain to feed its people and to export. We quickly learnt how dependent the Egyptians were on the success of the Nile flooding and that some years it was great, but other years it failed them.
Year 3 & 4 Pandas Recorder
Everyone has loved playing the recorder this half term. Children have learnt to play the notes B, A and G. They really enjoyed playing the ‘forbidden rhythm’ listening game!
