Head, Shoulders, Knees and Toes

We have been learning all about different topics in science to do with exercise, healthy eating and how to live a healthy lifestyle. Also, we have been learning about flowering plants and seed dispersal. Everyone in year 5 is looking forward to showing all of our learning on this topic in an assembly this Friday, 9th January. Photo's to follow.

Cinderella And Rockerfeller

The year 5 production "Cinderella and Rockerfeller" went down a storm with parents, staff and children. This production boasted great singing and fantastic acting and proved to be one of the best productions Fryern has produced. "Broadway here we come!" said one year 5 pupil.

Robots Run Wild At Fryern

Well, they weren't running wild but there were plenty of fantastic robots produced at home for the year 3/4 home learning project. The children obviously worked hard to produce their robots as the quality was outstanding. Thank you to everyone who supported their children with this task.

Sparsholt Visit

On a very cold day in November, year 3/4 visited Sparsholt. The children studied different properties of rocks and soils and had fun digging up samples from the cold, hard ground. They then visited the pigs and learnt how to recycle the waste from their lunch boxes to round off a fun and educational visit.

A Visit From The Twits

Our very talented teachers, Mr Firkin and Mr Smith visited the school in the form of Mr and Mrs Twit. Looking fabulous and sporting a long, black beard covered in cereal, worms and fish bones, Mr Twit made us laugh with his obviously talented acting skills! The shrieking voice of Mrs Twit, telling off Mr Twit for his appalling antics was the highlight of the show. The children enjoyed the Twits and created some excellent writing following the show.

Bags of Fun

Year 3/4 designed different bags for different purposes, such as carrying something heavy or holding a gift, to lauch our new topic "material world". We had great fun creating the bags. The finished products were bright, colourful, practical and successful.
