We have been looking and the world famous composer, John Williams during Music Week.
John Williams has created some of the most iconic film scores of all time, scoring more than a hundred films, many of which were directed by Steven Spielberg.
We listened to some famous film scores to see if we were able to recognise them, all composed by John Williams.
We developed a new appreciation of how music affects films and how it impacts on our emotions.
We had a great time competing in our sports day. During the afternoon, we competed in races, javelin and hurdles.
Well done everybody!
Well done to the green and yellow team who came joint first!
In our art lessons, we have been sketching patterns based on William Morris artwork and have explored and used a variety of whittling, rolling and pressing techniques.
William Morris believed that art should be present in everyday objects such as textiles and homeware and everyone should be able to have arts and crafts in their life.
We designed our very own wallpaper designs to showcase our understanding of the types of patterns he created.
This week, we have been gathering information and vocabulary about life in a Victorian workhouse.
We wrote a letter from a child in a workhouse explaining the living conditions there.
The aim of The Daily Mile is to improve the physical,emotional,social and mental health and well-being of children.
