Term 1 & 2 | Clough and Risegate Community Primary School

The children are back and Chestnut is full of the sound of discussion. The children are learning about The Great Fire of London this term. This has got the children interested and working hard. They are also looking at Rocks and how they are formed in Science. Currently the highlight is Computing where the children tried programming Miss Robinson. They soon worked out their left from their right to make Miss Robinson move around the classroom without crashing into too many tables. Keep looking below to find out more about the learning in Chestnut as well as looking out for our tweets.

Don't forget that P.E. is on a Friday. Please could girls have their earrings removed and their hair tied back on a Friday for P.E. thank you.

Measuring

The children have been working on discussing measuring. They had good ideas about what you use different equipment for and then started trying to measure a range of objects using the equipment.

Pumpkin Decorating Day

The children were very creative with their pumpkins this year. They made a plan for their pumpkin design and had the challenge of sticking to that design. This was a challenge the children rose to with some scary pumpkins by the end of the day.
