Year 5 – Together We Can Poems

We used Michael Rosen’s poems Car Trip and Hot Food to inspire us. The children enjoyed the way he used his voice and expressions to make everyday things comical and interesting. They then thought about what together we can meant to them and what it might look like everyday before they wrote their own poems using some of the features we identified and performed them in the style of Michael Rosen.

Year 1 – Marwell Trip

As part of our Enquiry ‘Should zoos exist?’, on Tuesday 15th June Year 1 went to Marwell zoo. We were able to look at all the enclosures and had in depth discussions about them. We all attended some interesting workshops, where we had the opportunity to see the different skulls from the classification groups such as bird, reptile etc.

It was a scorching hot day, but we all learnt a lot and enjoyed every minute!

Thank you to all the children that held Shamblehurst’s name high!

You are all superstars!
