LKS2 Curriculum

Summer 2nd 2024
 

Our recent topic on Extreme Earth has been an incredible journey filled with hands-on learning and exciting discoveries. We delved into the fascinating world of geology, investigating different types of rocks using Starburst and creating edible soil models to illustrate the various soil layers. We also learned about the formation of fossils, uncovering the secrets of Earth's ancient past.  To understand the power of nature, we recreated tsunamis in the forest and made mini tornadoes in plastic bottles.

We had an amazing Activities Week filled with a variety of exciting adventures. We kicked things off by cooking in the forest and setting up shelters, where we also enjoyed some bug hunting and making giant bubbles. Our Sports Day was a hit, packed with energetic games and friendly competition. One of the highlights of the week was our trip to Brandon Country Park. Here, we got the chance to try out archery, build catapults, and tackle a climbing wall. Additionally, we showed off our skills in a dodgeball competition and had a thrilling game of scatter ball against the parallel class. Overall, it was a week full of fun, learning, and memorable experiences!

As we move into the new academic year,  our next topic will focus on the Anglo-Saxons. We will explore their history and culture, with a special emphasis on the local connections to Bury St Edmunds. This promises to be another engaging and educational journey for our children with a visit planned to West Stow.
