SJB Primary School

We have been working hard on our DT project this week. We have been looking at strengthening structures and learning how to use a saw safely.

In maths we have been representing data using different charts. Our favourite one to use was the bar charts.

In English we have started to read The Christmasasurus by Tom Fletcher. We have had great fun making up rhymes for the North Pole elves.

After learning the cornet last year in music lessons, five Year 6 children are continuing their music journey and have joined Ulverston Training Band with Mrs Benjamin. They have been attending on Tuesday evenings and working very hard.

Their first concert is on Saturday and we are very proud of them! 🎵🎶

Six children from Year 3 and 4 went to Furness College yesterday for a hockey tournament.

They played extremely well and they reached the quarter final .

Three of the children were new to the sport. They all scored a goal and we are really proud of all of them.

Our KS2 paper craft club have been busy this half term. So far they’ve made cards, book marks and Christmas decorations.

Thank you to Mrs O’Connor for sharing her crafty skills.

Look out for more to come next term if you’d like to get involved?

Thank you to Polly, Jack, Luca and Gracie for getting the day off to a great start.

Year 2 loved their first DT lesson on paper structures. All our work in this unit is based around the question “how strong is a piece of paper?” We learned what pillars were used for and investigated which shape of pillar could hold the most weight.

Year 4 had a lovely time packing their ‘shoeboxes of hope’ for some of Europe’ poorest children. Thank you so much to all those who contributed to this appeal, which is very dear to our hearts.
