Strange happenings at The Pastures!

On Tuesday we had an incident at school. Something very mysterious landed on the playground near our classroom.  Children in year 3/4 had to go to the hall for registration.  After the scientists had carried out their investigations, they gave us the all-clear and we were allowed to return to our classroom.  At playtime we watched one scientist move some pieces of metal from the inside of the tent (some of which was covered in orange slime!).  Smoke was billowing out and some very peculiar noises could be heard from within!
Here are some photos of what we saw!









What do you remember about this exciting day? Post any comments!

Welcome back to school! We hope you had a lovely Christmas and New Year and have had a nice rest.

Our topic’s for Spring term are:

History -World War 2 (finding out about the most famous characters such as Neville Chamberlain, Winston Churchill, Adolf Hitler and Anne Frank).

Science -Moving and growing (finding out about skeletons in humans and animals, organs protected by the skeleton, how muscles help us move).

ICT – continuing work on how to create a PowerPoint and then making a poster in Publisher.

PE – gymnastics and swimming.

Music – learning songs from World War 2 for our concert at the end of the term.

This would be much appreciated!!

We hope you’re as excited to start the term as we are J !
