What a fantastic first week back after half-term! The children have worked incredibly hard and shown great enthusiasm, effort and commitment across all our subjects.

In English, we wrote our own war poems in preparation for Remembrance Day on 11th November. We also explored narrative writing, creating exciting and descriptive stories set during wartime. The children showed great creativity and used some wonderful vocabulary in their writing.

In RE, we discussed how David became a leader and explored the qualities and characteristics that make someone a great leader. The children shared some thoughtful ideas about what makes a good leader and the importance of leading by example.

In Science, we started our new topic, Forces. The children took part in an investigation exploring the relationship between an object's size and the force of gravity acting upon it. They showed great curiosity and enthusiasm as they investigated, observed and discussed their findings.

I can't wait to see what the children will achieve next week! Well done, everyone, for such an amazing start to the half-term. Keep up the fantastic work!
