During our first week back, we have been read The Barnabus Project by the Fan brothers. In a world built for Perfect Pets, Barnabus is a Failed Project, half mouse, half elephant, kept out of sight until his dreams of freedom lead him and his misfit friends on a adventure. This story, led to the creation of our own failed projects. We used clay and moulded, pinched and prodded till our creations were complete. Here are some examples.
We've had a great start to 2026 in Sapphire Class! I asked children to share their hopes for 2026 and their answers were inspiring. We also finished our science topic of 'forces' by experimenting with Newton meters.
After sketching and resketching our landscape images, today we have added colour. We attempted to create the foreground, middle ground and back depth and used our previous skills of shade to alter our paint tones. We are very pleased we our results.
Have a look at our photos from our trip out to day to Bewdley Museum. We were able to showcase our WWII knowledge, learn some new facts, handle artefacts and try out some gas masks.
