Red nose day

Last Friday was red nose day. Unfortunately Mrs Thorpe did not see us in our super hero costumes, but we took lots of pictures to show her how fabulous we all looked!

Our Maths week

The activities included 'George's marvelous measures', making rain gauges and foraging for items to measure and order.Although it was very cold, it was fun and we learned a lot of new skills!

Our design and technology project

This week we have been designing and making a healthy sandwich snack. We started by tasting a range of shop bought sandwiches and evaluating what we liked and didn't like about them. Mrs Thorpe then brought lots of different breads and spreads for us to try. There was pate, salmon paste, cheese and pepper spread, egg mayonnaise, humous and blueberry jam! We got to pick whether we spread them on wraps, pitta bread, onion bagels or warmed ciabatta! (some of us were not very keen on trying new flavours - although lots of us found we really enjoyed humous!)After all these tasting sessions we got to decide what filling we wanted to use to make our own sandwich.....

Year 3 and 4 Christmas Play

Make your own slide show at Animoto.

This week Beech class have been performing our Christmas Play to the rest of the school and our families. Our version of Hansel and Gretel included jiving birds, talking trees and robbers who like to tango! All the children did a fabulous job learning their lines, songs and dances - Well done Beech Class

Our Tudor Walk

Hi, This is Beech Class. On Wednesday 21st of November, we went on a walk through Shrewsbury Town to look at Tudor Houses. We were identifying Tudor and Mock Tudor houses, but there were lots of both. Fish Street and Butchers Row were quite close together and they sold fish and meat (It must have been very stinky!) When Elizabeth I came she decided to paint the wattle and daub white, because she didn't like brown! In 'Bear Steps', bears and dogs had fights. We saw lots of different houses, some were built by rich people, some by poor. Grope Lane is very close together because of the jetty's sticking out of the houses. We found out that they built Shrewsbury Castle, because of the battle of Bosworth and the Monarch wanted to protect England
