Making Picture Frames!

In 3C we did some Design and Technology and made our own picture frames. We measured the size of our artwork and used saws to cut the wood to the correct shape. Miss Cooper helped us stick it together using a glue gun. We practised using new skills and had lots of fun! 

Recycling Competition Winners!

We were very excited to have an email last week saying:

"I am writing to let you know that pupils from your school have won a prize in our creative competition ‘The Unusual Suspects’

J is the winner for the photographic category

G is the runner up  for the creative writing category

  

As J is a category winner, we will also present the school with a prize.  This will be a bench made from recycled plastic bottles, see below."

J and G will meet the mayor in a special ceremony, and we will take a picture of them sitting on our new bench when it is installed by the school.

Rainforest Appliqué

Year 4K are sewing this afternoon. We have dyed our fabric using natural dyes such as spinach, turmeric and beetroot. We are now using embroidery thread to appliqué our designs. They are looking fab! 

Zinger Zebra

Marwell Zoo has sent us some professional shots of our Zebra! Watch this space for details of the summer trail where you will be able to see Zinger at one with nature!

Shirley Warren Zany Zebra

Well done to Caylan in Year 4 for winning the Zany Zebra competition. His design was chosen as it represented Shirley Warren through the colours, symbols and words he chose. 

Our zebra has now been delivered to the people at Marwell Zoo and will be put on display later this year as part of the Zany Zebra trail.  We will send details of this nearer the time. 

Well done to all the children that took part in the project, either by entering the competition or painting the design!

Thank you also to Green Council for choosing the winning design. 

Go Shirley Warren!
