RA had a fantastic day visiting Twycross Zoo! The excitement had been building for the past couple of weeks and today was finally the day we had all been waiting for! The children were fascinated by all of the animals they saw and showed great enthusiasm as they learnt lots of new facts. We were lucky enough to see lots of animals including giant turtles, zebras, giraffes, elephants, monkeys, gorillas and leopards!
After all the excitement, the children were exhausted. Needless to say the coach back to school was very quiet with lots of sleepy children (and grown-ups)!
A big thank you to the lovely parents who came with us and helped to make the visit such a success!
On Monday, Reception went on a fabulous trip to Twycross Zoo. It was a lovely sunny day, so all the animals were out to play! We saw lots of different monkeys, great, big gorillas, tall giraffes and enormous elephants. Our favourite animals were the gibbons and the penguins! Thank you to the parents who joined us. Take a look at what we saw!

Thank you to all parents for making such an effort with the children’s clothes. Have a look at what we got up to!
The children in Reception at Bierton Road had a fantastic day learning all about life in Mexico! There was lots of excitement as the children showcased their colourful clothes during a fashion show.

As part of culture day, years five and six are celebrating Japanese culture and traditions. The pupils were taught how to multiply using an old traditional Japanese method of lines and intersections (visual representation) to find the answer. 
For the past 2 weeks we have been artists! This year for art fortnight year one have studied and take inspiration from Bridget Riley. Bridget Riley is an English artist who creates optical illusions and artwork using tessellation. In the first week we researched, experimented with different mediums and created a piece of 2D artwork in the style of Bridget Riley. This week we have focused on 3D art and used clay to produce 3D artwork again which was inspired by Bridget Riley.
WEEK 1 – Using paints to create our Bridget Riley inspired piece of art.
WEEK 1 – Using oil pastels to create our Bridget Riley inspired piece of art.
WEEK 2 – Creating our 3D artwork.
During the course of the fortnight we have learnt lots of new skills and fun facts about Bridget Riley, but the best thing of all we had lots of fun doing it! Year one have created some fantastic pieces of art – well done!
