Our pupils had a very informative assembly from Helen, from Oases, about how to become energy supersavers.
They learnt about global warming and climate change, including what is causing it to happen. They then learnt about what they can do, at home and in school, to help to stop it from happening.

On Tuesday 20th February, Class 3 went on a visit to Durham Cathedral. The sun was shining for their morning of geography fieldwork skills on the riverbanks. The children were given compasses and a map. We walked along the riverbanks, with our guide pointing out key ‘landmarks’ that the children would then include on their map when we were back in the education building. They learnt about bridges, the corn and fulling mills and the counts house.[Slideshow "geography-fieldtrip" not found]

Amy, from Oases, came into school at the end of January to work with our Green Leaders group for the second time. They learnt about non-renewable materials and the impact that power stations are having on our planet.
They then went outside and played a game pretending to be polar bears. Through the game, the children learnt about the polar bear’s home melting and what we can do to help stop this happening.
The Secret Behind Christmas was a KS2 extravaganza. The children wowed and thrilled the audience for the entirety of the show. All the children loved the disney songs and there were some excellent singing performances including solos and a fabulous trio. The audience waited in anticipation to find out whether Mrs Claus and her feisty elves could solve the problem of the missing reindeers. During their quest they met a range of characters from Simba to Aladdin to Elsa and Olaf. Then finally Buzz and Woody succeeded in helping Mrs Claus retrieve the reindeers from the wicked Cruella Deville and her henchmen, with the help of the cunning Puss in Boots. Well done to all the children for their hard work.
