This afternoon’s football matches resulted in a loss, a draw and a win against Park School. The Year Five boys played particularly well to win 7-2, as well as hitting the crossbar twice and the post once. Good sportsmanship was evident all round and the support on both sides was highly motivating!

Reading workshop
Some Year Six pupils took part in a carousel of reading challenges related to their class text ‘Friend or Foe’ by Michael Morpurgo. Pupils are considering character, plot, retrieval of information and analysis of language.
Sketches
Year 3 have been sketching fossils as part of their Dinosaurs topic. They focussed on technique when using pencil to draw, achieving variety in tone.
Curiosity
Today’s assembly was about curiosity – one of our character traits. Mrs Williams shared how Captain James Cook showed curiosity when setting sail around the world, as well as discussing our thought of the week:

Year Six had an amazing day today at The Tank Museum. They learned about the development of tanks, but also visited a 1940s house and had workshops about different elements of life within the time of the Second World War.
Football matches
Yesterday evening QPA played against St Luke’s Primary at the David Lloyd centre. Our Year 6 team performed extremely well, Dylan scoring a hatrick and Reuben mastering the midfield, and the team achieved a 5-0 victory. The Year 4 team did not fair so well, losing 4-1, but showing great grit and inter-dependence throughout.
