This half term, the artists of Oak class have been researching, designing and making an item of clothing to fit the design brief: If I was living in Indigenous Canada what would I wear which combines what I like about our fashion, with their traditional clothing?

Here are their creations!

Yesterday afternoon Oak class welcomed Dr Simon Nightingale, a member of the Humanist Society, to Bicton. He very kindly came to talk to us about Humanism, to support our RE question- What matters most to Humanists and Christians?
He explained how Humanists know about the world and how they know what is right and wrong.
The children then had the opportunity to ask him questions to deepen their understanding of Humanism.

Oak class have been exploring balances on the benches, ropes and wall apparatus.

Last Thursday, the year 6s were luckily enough to be invited to join the black history month workshop at Shrewsbury Town Football club. We completed team building activities, learnt about famous black sportsmen and women and even got to meet some of the players.

Oak class have had a great day at Shrewsbury Flaxmill Maltings! We have learnt about the building, also known as ‘The Grandfather of Skyscrapers’, and how its purpose has changed since it was built in 1797. The children have heard what life would have been like for children their age, who were employed as apprentices by Mr Marshall.
