Our Orca and Dolphin classes have been diving into Tudor portraits in art! We explored the work of Hans Holbein, famous for painting Tudor Kings and Queens, and we tried out some pencil sketches inspired by his style. We can't wait to turn these into full portraits soon and share them with you.

What a day! Starfish, Angelfish, and Jellyfish classes had an unforgettable trip to Porthpean Beach this week, soaking up the sunshine and exploring the shoreline! We had so much fun discovering crabs, winkles, sea anemones and even a few blenny fish in the rockpools It was the perfect chance to see the microhabitats we've been learning about in science come to life. We also put our geography skills into action, spotting human and physical features around the Porthpean environment Of course, no beach day is complete without sandcastles! We used natural materials to build, design, and work together with our partners. A brilliant day of learning, exploring, and enjoying our beautiful local area

Year 3 have been busy becoming skeleton experts! We had a special visit from Mr Skelly, who helped us learn the names of key bones like the femur, radius, and cranium. We explored real X-ray images of humans and animals to discover how our skeletons help us move and protect vital organs. We've also been blown away by the amazing skeleton-themed home learningthank you for sharing your creativity! Fantastic work, Year 3!
