Class 1 had an incredible fun packed morning with the super savvy team in Hayle.
We practised our ballet moves with Clare and pretended to be cheeky pixies picking a lovely juicy apple from a tree then running away.
We had to lie on our tummies and I had to touch my hair with my feet. We had to take a apple from the farmers tree and run away – Darcey
It was so fun, we did exercises and dancing – Ashton
We danced the morning away with wings, wands and scarves to some beautiful ballet tunes.
Upstairs in the second studio we practised our street dancing to some upbeat dance tunes.
Clare and Ben were wonderful with the children as ever. There were smiles all round as the children pirouetted, twirled, stretched, skipped, jumped and practised different positions for their feet, legs arms and bodies.
We had to put our legs out straight. We have to point our feet up and down and had to creep and try to get the apple and we have to spin our scarves around. Then we had to walk side to side -Elsie
The children were really lucky to be given a ticket for another free trail class. Class 1 would like say a massive thank you to Clare, Aidan and Ben more making our morning so much fun and teaching us some great moves.
Class 1 had a fabulous time at the Standing Stones Stables in Trink St.Ives.
We met Rolo, Buddy and James the gentle and patient ponies.
I liked riding the horse, the brown one – Jasper
We took turns in grooming the horses and learning all about how to care for them. We decorated James the unicorn with glitter, sparkles, gems and gave his mane and tail a good groom.
We had a go at waxing some saddles, colouring some unicorn pictures and filling up the nets with hay for the horses.
It was fun. I loved it. I decorated the horse with glitter and I rided on a horse, the white one, it felt like my dog because I have a dog called Tessa – Billy
After making a wish by the largest standing stone in Cornwall, we had a run around in the field then made our way over to the paddock. There we took it in turns to ride Rolo and Buddy. We also got to lead James around the paddock.
We had a lovely time and would like to say thank you to Natalie and all her wonderful staff for making our visit so much fun.
I liked going on the horses. My favourite one was the white one. I liked going on Buddy – Hazel
Class 1 had an amazing day at the Bluff beach with the surf lifesaving super star Ben Holtaway.
We started out in the beach hut and learnt all about beach safety. We learnt where and when it is safe to go into the sea to swim or surf and what to do if we get into trouble.
We swim in between the red and yellow flags, otherwise you’ll go out to sea – Elowen
Next we met the life guards. We learnt all about the important role they have and what they do to keep us safe on the beach. We even got a demonstration of one of the lifeguards rescuing his friend who had got into trouble in the sea with the jet ski. Next we had a go on the rescue board and were excited to sit on the jet ski and quad bike.
I liked going on the jet ski best and the quad bike. Joseph
After the jet ski fun, we played some amazing beach games including the assault course with the sea weed cave of doom.
I liked playing in the wet sand best – Jacob
Finally, the highlight of the day was going surfing. The tide was perfect and the children had an amazing time swimming, splashing and surfing in the gentle waves.
I like surfing the best. I paddled on the surf board – Seth
Class 1 would like to say a massive thanks you to Ben and all the life guards for making the day so much fun and enjoyable.
Today, Year 4 celebrated the rise of the Roman Empire in true fashion. Armed with shields, swords and Roman legion attire, the excitement from the students entering school was palpable.
To begin with, the Year group were greeted with Roman army commands: Consiste! (Halt!), Laxate (at ease), silentiurm! (Silence!) and Sin/ Dex (Left/ Right!), which would come in hand later on in the day.
Next, both classes were thrown into the melee and had to use their best codebreaking skills in order to crack a hidden message written by the emperor himself, Julius Caesar. The hidden message revealed one of Caesar’s greates quotes to date:
“It is better to create than to learn! Creating is the essence of life.” Julius Caesar
After exploring this quote and thinking deeper into what Caesar’s quote means, creating is exactly what the students did next. After having designed mosaics the day before, the students were tasked with creating a Roman mosaic. This proved lots of fun and the results are already looking promising.
The grand finale, however, had to be experiencing what it was like to march like a Roman. Led by Mr Wise’s booming commands, Classes’ 9 and 10 both marched up and down the hall, to embed their understanding of Roman commands. Next, the students practised forming the defence shape, which is the ‘testudo’, or the tortoise. This proved an effective barrier against incoming missiles aimed by the teachers, as you can witness in the video below.
All in all, the children had an excellent morning immersing themselves in the Roman life and learning first hand how the Roman army worked.
Today, Class 9 took their Maths lesson outside and, it has to be said, they have embraced the outdoors despite the change of weather!
The lesson today was a recap of what they have been learning about this term – Place value. The students showed great teamwork and were able to confidently partition 4 digit numbers, as well as round their chosen number to the nearest 10, 100 and 1,000.
In addition, our Topic this term is ‘Romans on the Rampage.’ The class have been busy learning about who exactly the Romans were and what they have done for us. For DT, each of the students were tasked with creating a Roman helmet using paper mache, balloons, cardboard and, of course, the red and gold paint! This was a great success, with all students now learning Latin salutes in anticipation of a Roman Legion army drill in the coming weeks. ‘Dextrum sinistrum!
Finally, the good weather so far was not wasted, with many of our Guided Reading sessions taking place outside in the Gazebo and our first session of Tag Rugby taking place in glorious sunshine.
Class 6 have had a great start to the new term. They are really enjoying taking their learning outside where they have been able to calculate a variety of number problems and then discuss their reasoning.
The children have also been busy collecting and recording facts about polar bears and discovering who built the first castles in the U.K.
Well done Class 6, I am very proud of you all for making a great start to the new term

A letter from Lola
Hi this morning Lola and her brother Caio went to visit their friend James who keeps Bees.
First we put on the Bee Suits so the Bees didn’t sting us and get into our faces. Then James lit some material to make smoke. So the Bees think there is a fire coming so they gather as much honey as they can and get ready to leave home, this makes them slower. We then looked inside the Bee Hive all the Bees flew out . We found some honey comb. Then we looked for the queen bee. She likes to hide in the dark. We knew she was the queen because she was quite big and fat compared to the other bees. Her job is to lay eggs and have babies. We saw the baby bees ,which are grubs and some eggs. The worker bees were busy looking after them. All the other bees look after the babies and they are all female. Some of the bees go out to collect nectar and pollen. We saw the yellow pollen on the bees legs. James was stood in the way of the bees entrance and he had thousands on his leg! When we put the hive back together and walked away the bees stopped flying around us.
From Lola
