Wishing you all an exciting summer.

Week 6

This week the children performed their final Bamboo Tamboo ‘Cuckoo’ piece. They were absolutely fantastic!
They have also put their bread making skills to the test by cooking garlic bead and bread twists on the campfire and they were delicious. The children have also woven bracelets using para-cord- very trendy.
The bushcraft area also has some lovely new clay guardians.
A huge well done to our children who completed their learning log task about Queen Elizabeth I this half term, we were very impressed with their effort and knowledge.

For the final part of our art topic we have designed and made our own Terracotta Army warriors.

Week 3

Week 2

Continuing with our Chinese Art theme, this week we have make our own Chinese dragons out of clay. Clay is a very difficult material to work with and some of our dragons came off a little worse for wear, losing some limbs in the drying out process.

We have been learning to draw Chinese dragons as part of our Chinese art topic. We had our first bamboo Tamboo lesson, learning to play on different beats within a bar and keeping in time. The Year 6 children were treated at a visit from the ice cream van as a well done reward for all of their hard work this year leading up to the SATs. In this week’s Bush Craft session we had delicious sausage sandwiches- yummy!
