Today is the feast day of the martyrs St John Fisher and St Thomas More. Both men were executed in 1535 for refusing to assent to King Henry VIII's supreme headship of the Church. 'I die the King's good servant, but God's first.' - Last words of St Thomas More. @LawrenceOP https://t.co/juGuaFRj8G

Y3 had a science lesson experimenting in Chromatology. Most coloured inks are made up of lots of different colours, the children cut up a filter, drew a line with a felt tip pen then dipped the paper in water. The ink dissolves, spreads out, separating into different colours. https://t.co/nWhweXqWkM
Y5 delved deep into history and took an imaginary journey back into the past they explored the Ancient Greeks with the Freshwater Theatre they travelled back to Ancient Greece to persuade Zeus a rich Athenian and a Spartan slave to help them.

Today Year 3 were involved in a science lesson experimenting in Chromatology. Most coloured inks are actually made up of lots of different colours, so the children cut up a coffee filter and had to draw a line on it a little above the bottom with a felt tip pen, they dipped the bottom of the paper in a saucer of water, making sure the pen line stays above the water. The ink then dissolves, spreading out and separating into different colours.
Year 5 delved deep into history and took an imaginary journey back into the past, they explored the Ancient Greeks with the Freshwater Theatre, they travelled back to Ancient Greece to persuade Zeus, a rich Athenian and a Spartan slave to help them. There were many interactive elements and the students were involved in solving Greek-related activities, a study of Greek life and achievements and their influence on the western world they also explored everyday Athenian life and society and celebrated the legacy of the Ancient Greeks, discussing philosophy and recreating an original Olympic Games. They all had a great day!
The feast of the Sacred Heart.
Friday was the feast of the Sacred Heart. Year 6 created their own mini Sacred Heart statues and prayer books for home. They will make a special effort to pray to the Sacred Heart during the month of June.
Year 5 have been studying life cycles and have been caring for caterpillars. They released the beautiful butterflies on Friday afternoon here are some of the pictures
