Year 4 - Viking Workshop
Year 4 had a fantastic and enriching trip to Gunnersbury Park Museum as part of their History topic on the Vikings. During the visit, the children stepped into the shoes of Viking raiders through exciting role-play, helping them understand why Vikings were so famously known for their raids. They also explored a range of Viking artefacts, learning to identify and discuss primary and secondary sources like real historians.
Year 3 - Learning about Ancient History!
This week, Year 3 have been immersing themselves in their history learning by exploring Ancient Egypt and creating their own Egyptian-style scrolls. The children drew inspiration from traditional hieroglyphics and ancient storytelling, carefully designing and illustrating their scrolls with great attention to detail. They showed fantastic creativity and enthusiasm as they learned about how information was recorded in the past, and it was wonderful to see them take pride in their finished pieces.
Year 2 - Using Cookies and Cubes to Learn Fractions
This week, Year 2 have been getting hands-on with their maths learning as they explored fractions and amounts using cookies and cubes. By sharing cookies into equal parts and using cubes to represent different quantities, the children developed a clearer understanding of halves, quarters, and how amounts can be divided fairly. This practical approach made the learning both engaging and meaningful, helping to build confidence as they applied their knowledge to real-life contexts. It has been wonderful to see their enthusiasm and growing understanding throughout these activities.
Launching our new Nasheed with Omar Esa
We are incredibly proud to share a special achievement from our school choir this week. The children had the wonderful opportunity to work alongside Omar Esa to write and perform their very own nasheed: SubhanAllahi Wa Bihamdihi SubhanAllahil Adheem. They showed fantastic creativity, teamwork, and confidence throughout the process, from developing lyrics to refining their performance. The experience was made even more memorable as the students also filmed a video to accompany the nasheed, giving them a real insight into the production process. We are delighted to announce that the finished video is now live on YouTube, and we hope you enjoy watching and celebrating the children’s hard work and talent.
