🎨🎨Our creative Year 5 children have been diving into the world of installation art in Art & Design!
They have been exploring how artists use space, scale and materials to create powerful installation pieces that convey ideas, transform spaces and shape the viewer’s experience. The children were fascinated to learn how art doesn’t just hang on a wall – it can completely change how we see and feel within a space.
As part of their learning, they studied the work of Cai Guo-Qiang, exploring how he uses unusual materials and dramatic scale to create impactful installations.
Inspired by his work, the children worked collaboratively in groups to design and create their own imaginative art installations.
The children finished the unit by creating an Oracy performance evaluating their work. 🎨🎨

For Mental Health Day this year, we focused on the theme of Belonging – what it means to feel accepted, valued and included.
Our wonderful children took part in a special activity where they worked together to create a beautiful Belonging Mosaic. Each child designed their own unique piece, showing that while we are all different, we come together to make something truly special. 🧩✨
They also created a thoughtful poster filled with ideas about how we can help others feel like they belong – through kindness, listening, inviting others to join in, using kind words and celebrating our differences

Thank you to the PTFA for organising for us. It's been so fun to bust a move with our friends and teachers.

🎶 Soundtrack Your Story 🎶
Our Year 4, 5 & 6 children enjoyed a storytelling workshop for National Storytelling Week 2026, creating rap lyrics inspired by sound, rhythm and personal experience.
They now have the chance to enter a national writing competition, with winning work published in an anthology and some pieces performed by rapper Alim Kamara 🎤.
We cannot wait to see what they create ✨.

Yesterday, we visited Newcastle Fire Station with Year 5 and had an action-packed day full of learning and fun!
We took part in a road safety workshop where we learned how to stay safe around lorries, followed by a HSBC workshop all about how a debit card works. In the fire safety session, we discovered how quickly fire can spread from even the smallest hazards – a real eye-opener! We also met the police, tried on their uniform (which is seriously heavy!), and talked about what it means to be a good citizen.
A huge thank you to everyone involved for such an amazing set of workshops!

There was lots of singing, laughing and full-on pop-star energy throughout – a brilliant treat and a fantastic shared experience for the children. A huge thank you to our wonderful PTFA for organising the event and for providing the popcorn and drinks. #ptfastm #year4stm #year5stm #year6stm … See MoreSee Less
