"The single most important skill you must have to lead is the ability to tell your own story." - Bo Eason
Year 4 have been working together to create posters about the solar system. They researched the different planets and moons in our solar system and created fun fact-files that they presented to their classmates.
Year 5 have had a blast interviewing each other. They worked together to create bar charts depicting the class’s favourite animals, food and planets. Interviewing each other made them realise just how much in common they all have with each other. They also learnt about each other’s achievements and history, and constructed biographies about one another. It was quite an eye-opener learning how many accomplished Taekwondo practitioners and musicians we have!

Year 4 recently embarked on a thought-provoking unit of work, stepping into the shoes of Rainforest Detectives to solve a serious environmental mystery, in the hope of changing the future of the rainforest.
Storytelling is at the heart of everything we do, and it extends far beyond literacy. It is transdisciplinary, meaning children naturally integrate their knowledge of phonics into storytelling, create maths stories, and weave in elements of science, curiosity, and their understanding of the world.
