Friday lunch time fun at Allhallows. The children had a fantastic game with the parachute, so many joined in that there was hardly any space left around the edge. It was lovely to see the sun shining too. @LA_Trust
A great afternoon with our visitors from The Guildhall Museum. Rowan Class continued to learn about Charles Dickens and the Victorians. They really enjoyed crafting plates and napkin rings to join the rest of the banqueting table. I hope the Queen approves. @LA_Trust
Rowan Class discovered just how clean their hands were. By using a digital microscope they looked under and around their nails. After a few ooooooos and yuks, it became clear that extra washing power was needed. Keep those hands clean and stay safe everyone. @LA_Trust
Oak Class have been estimating length in metres. We used our outside space to draw heights and widths of dinosaurs. The children were surprised how small some were and amazed that some were the length of half the playground. Their behaviour was impeccable outside. @LA_Trust
During Science week the children experienced what it was like to be visually impaired. They considered a number of different sports and the barriers that disabled people could face. Playing catch and football blindfolded was very challenging. How is that overcome? @LA_Trust
Oak Class discovered facilities in their local area and Chestnut Class search for countries that we trade with. They used Google Earth to zoom in to see industrial areas and where you can visit in Medway. An informative PYP session.

Rowan Class were puzzled! How did this digger follow the black line? After trialing various other colours, they discovered that it would only work on black. What super fun they had creating a brilliant map from their trail, it now hangs proudly on display. @LA_Trust

What sort of music would accompany a world natural disaster? Rowan Class were thrilled to use our new iPads to compose sequences of sounds to match these devastating catastrophes. They searched for Chrome Music Lab and fully immersed themselves in the exciting music. @LA_Trust
Rowan Class prepare to read the news. They are taking their reports very seriously, with ‘specialists’ to answer key questions too. Followed by the evening’s weather forecast. They loved watching their films back and evaluating their performance. @LA_Trust
Year 6 planning their newscast. They’ve chosen to report on important environment issues, ‘what’s happening to the world’s water, plastic pollution and climate change. Using technology to research, writing play scripts and finally filming for a great computing project. @LA_Trust
