Base 4’s Design and Technology – 11.07.2023

This morning, Base 4 created their own balanced meals for a summer picnic. They learnt all about the quantities of food they should have from the 5 main food groups and also learnt about food hygiene. They were very sensible when using different kitchen utensils and their finished plates looked very tasty! Well done, Base 4!

STEAM week last week – 03.07.2023

Last week Year 2 had lots of fun during STEAM week. Here are some of the activities they did!

Base 4’s Bubble Snakes – 30.06.2023

This afternoon, Base 4 had great fun creating bubble snakes on the playground! We discussed how using socks created the snakes instead of individual bubbles.

Base 4 – Fingerprint Detectives – 30.06.2023

As part of STEAM week, Base 4 investigated how to detect fingerprints. They used magnifying glasses to compare the whorls, arches and loops that they could see.

Base 3 STEAM Week – Bridge Building – 28.06.23

Today, Base 3 have explored a range of bridges today. They looked at how they were made, the ways in which they are strengthened and what they are used for.

After, they designed their own bridge and then went on to make their own bridge with gem sweets and cocktail sticks. Just look at the amazing bridges they made. They were extremely impressive!

Super team ant skills!

Base 4’s Art – The Water Lily Pond by Claude Monet – 27.06.2023

Base 4 have enjoyed creating their own versions of The Water Lily Pond by Claude Monet. They used the wax resist technique and a graduated wash of watercolours to create the base for their artwork and then added detail by layering up colours. The finished pieces look brilliant! Well done Base 4!

STEAM Week – Careers Day in Base 4 – 26.06.2023

Base 4 have had a brilliant day learning all about different STEAM careers and diversity in science. They looked fantastic in their STEAM career costumes and it was great to see such a range of different jobs being represented.

Thank you for all of your effort!
