Class 1

The holiday is here!

admin on: Class 1

22nd March 2024

What a brilliant end to a fabulous half term!  On behalf of the whole Year 1 team, I would like to thank you all again for your continued support that you have given the children.

Sadly, we said goodbye to Mrs McLoughlin in assembly as she is leaving us to become a head teacher at another shool. We are especially sad in Year One as she taught us every Wednesday! We created cards for her where we wrote all about her and what we have remembered in our time with her. We are going to miss her terribly but wish her well for the future! 

   

In history, we have been learning about the battle for the crown in 1066 after King Edward the Confessor died. We studied the Battle of Stamford Bridge, the deadly war fought between Harold Godwinson and Harold Hardrada. We recreated the battle on our field, with half of us pretending to be the Nords and the other half pretending to be the English. What fun we had bringing history to life! 

   

   

   

We had an exciting design and technolody session today. We planned our structure of a motte and bailey castles in our groups. We thought about how we are going to make our freestanding structure and which additions we were going to add to the bailey. We are going to be creating these after Easter so keep your eyes peeled! 

Have a fantastic weekend and holiday everyone, get lots of rest ready to start school again in 2 weeks!

22.3.24 Week in Review

admin on: Class 2

Happy Easter! 

I hope everyone has a great Easter Break!

We have had lots of fun in class two this week with everyone heading out to do a whole class outdoor learning session in the warm spring sunshine.

The class have produced some utterly amazing Great Fire of London diaries, recounting their own fictional experiences based on their learning of the topic in history.

During our math lessons, Miss Chadwick has led the class in using different strategies to multiply, divide, subtract and add in a variety of math games.

Thanks everyone,

Mr. H.

Matilda : Dahl, Roald, Blake, Quentin: Amazon.co.uk: Books

I have really enjoyed reading Matilda to you in class.  I love doing the shouty voice for Miss Trunchbull and seeing your faces.  Thank goodness that we have lovely teachers here at Netherthong.


You have all worked so hard on your assessments this week.  Struck record time - You Make Me Proud!!!

We celebrated British Science Week (thank you to Mr Kershaw for organising).  All of the children got to complete lots of different activities and investigations.  It was lots of fun and the children were amazing.

We have loved working on our double page spreads all about the Vikings.  You have so many facts written down, it is like we have a class encyclopaedia.

Fingers crossed that we have a weekend of wellness after last week.  Enjoy your weekend and see you all for the last week of term on Monday.

Good evening all!

We've had a very exciting week here in school; we all took part in National Science Week and on Monday and Wednesday the children in KS2 were all treated to a wide variety of science investigations and activities run by all the staff; a super event and very well organised by Mr Kershaw! The children loved every minute!

The children have been busily completing their wonderful recounts of their visit to Cliffe House this week; below is the 2nd collection of wonderful photos for you to enjoy!

Have a lovely weekend everyone!

See you all on Monday,

Mrs Matthews, Miss Nipe and Mrs Pearce

We have had a fabulous final week in Class 5.

In English we have been completing our very own Rainforest themed stories complete with magical trees and talking animals. The children spent time breaking the story down, chapter by chapter, paragraph by paragraph and really fine tuning their writing skills to create fantastically detailed and descriptive pieces of writing. It has been an absolute please reading them.

Maths this week has focussed on revising 3D shapes and their properties. We spent a lot of time making different nets for multiple 3D shapes and then completed a full unit review to consolidate learning. The children did amazingly well and showed that they have really understood the topic!

In our History lessons we looked at architecture and archaeologists. We learned what these words mean and then spent time looking at different Mayan building, using what we could see to try to work out what the buildings may have been used for. I was really impressed with the children’s archaeological skills!

Of course, we have also been practicing an awful lot of singing this week. In a couple of months, Class 5 will be invited to sing at the Huddersfield Town Hall as part of the Kirklees Primary Music Festival. We have a whole booklet of songs that we need to learn before then so we really sunk our teeth into practicing this week and my word, I was blown away with the musical talent in this class! I can’t wait to be sitting on stage with them whilst they perform on the big night!

I hope you all have a wonderful Easter break!

Geography in Class 6

admin on: Class 6

Here are some photos of some of the geography we have been up to in the last couple of weeks. The children recreated how fold mountains are formed by plate tectonics using large pieces of card. Then, later in the geography topic, the children went out on a 'field trip'... to the school field! They sketched the landscape they could see and then labelled it with physical features of geography.

Have a lovely Easter every one.

We have had a short but fun filled five weeks of learning.

This week we have learnt about the Christian Festival of Easter and the traditions that go along with it.

We had a super egg rolling competition in our forest school sessions and make Easter cards.

Here are a few photos.

Thank you for all your support at home.

We have put in extra reading books for them over Easter.Keep it up!
