Year 6 MOTUS dance workshop

On Wednesday 14th April , Year 6 were really fortunate to be able to work with Katie Dale-Everett, Artistic Director from KDE Dance. The workshop was designed to give the children an opportunity to explore their hopes, connections and values through the medium of dance.  For the workshop, the children were asked to bring a special object that had a significant meaning for them. This object was then used to encourage the children to express their feelings and emotions. The children were brilliant and Katie complimented them on their ability to use their bodies so expressively.

Christmas Service

On Thursday 17th December 2020, Puffin, Kingfisher and Penguin class reminded us about the true meaning of Christmas through their wonderful Carol Service.  Although we missed our families joining us at St.Mary’s, it was lovely to see the mature way the children told the Christmas story through prayer, lessons and carols.

Christmas Cracked

On Wednesday 5th December 2018, Year 6 attended Christmas Cracked at Whaddon Way Church in Bletchley. The children had a really enjoyable morning learning about the ‘true meaning of Christmas‘ while they decorated festive cakes, completed  a quiz and  listened to a shepherd reciting his version of the Christmas story. A huge thank you to Bridgebuilder trust volunteers who made the whole experience possible.

WWII Experience Day

A huge thank you to all the families of the Waterbirds classes for providing such wonderful costumes and letters for our World War II Experience Day.  The children and staff had a tremendous day learning all about evacuation.  

 

After sheltering from the bombs (in a makeshift Morrison’s shelter), sampling vegetable soup and designing  propaganda posters, the children were joined by their families in the hall to sing rousing tunes like ‘It’s a long way to Tipperary’ and ‘Pack up your troubles in your old kit bag.’   It was a truly wonderful experience.

Year 5/6 Visit to Holdenby House – 1st October 2019

Year 5/6 experienced a day as Victorian servants at Holdenby House in Northamptonshire.  The children were given various roles ranging from a Tweeny to Stable boys and spent the day carrying out tasks appropriate for their position.  The team leading the day showed the children how hard it was for servants in this era and how strict the rules were.  The teachers also played their part in the day and everyone enjoyed the experience.
