May The Force Be With You!

28th January 2024C Machin

We have just finished our current theme- May The Force Be With You. We have been learning all about forces. We have been learning about pushes, pulls, gravity and magnetism. We even created our own maths fishing game using magnets and paper clips.  We searched for magnetic and non- magnetic metals and recorded our findings on Venn diagrams. We also designed and made our own moving vehicle to investigate which surface would slow them down. It if safe to say we have all really enjoyed learning all about forces.

Cheerleading at Hebburn Lakes

7th December 2023C Machin

For the first time this year we have had a cheerleading club. Children have been learning skills such as strengthening, conditioning, teamwork, and musicality. Cheerleading is always so much fun and a great way to motivate the children to move around through dance. As you can see from the photos below we have been practicing a team routine/chants along with learning new skills. The children have worked hard this term and have gained so much more confidence which enables them to be the best they can be.
