Rocket!!!!

In Reception, a corner has been converted into a rocket ship

Here are some views, inside and out

There are plenty of costumes, to get into character

The exterior

Really stimulating the imagination.   

Well done to the staff who spent the time making and equipping it. Your work makes a difference to our children and their learning!

Is this a load of rubbish?!?!!??

Class 2W made monsters from rubbish

Here they are proudly showing the results

It was fun working together

The children designed them all.

They are really quite inventive

Not rubbish at all!!

Fantastic, I'd say.

Well done, children.

More pictures from A Night at the Oscars

Fusion (in black and white), and Jubilate (pink)

The finish of a big number. Mr Jackson (guitar) looks across to see what is coming next, while Mr Hayward looks quite relaxed! (No music to find for a drummer!)

The glowsticks.

I haven't got pictures of everyone yet, so apologies to anyone who is not on these, but there will be more pictures to follow - plus a slideshow on the school website

Vivo

Jesson's organised a Choir Festival, Vivo, for primary schools on Thursday and Friday, at the Town Hall

This is Old Park School Makaton Choir: they started off the whole thing

They perform on a special stage, because of the number of wheelchairs 

The comperes came from Jesson's

Checking their notes

Thursday morning's comperes

Friday's comperes

Vocalize performing their Disney medley

Jubilate also performed.

Afterwards, Jubilate posed for a photo.

At first, sensibly, and then less so. (Well, it was a long day!)

There were 32 choirs - from Dudley and Sandwell - performing over the two days. That was more than 1000 children, and all organised by us!
Sorry about the quality of some of the pictures

Art in the sun

Year 5 again - this time doing art outside

Here are some of the results

Beautiful

All the children enjoyed it

The peaceful tranquillity made it easy to concentrate

Outdoor maths

Year 5 have been making good use of the weather to study maths outside

Shape in the environment was the topic

There were plenty of good examples
