Autumn 1
This half term, we’ve been lucky to have our PE sessions led by Mr. Elliott from the Newcastle United Foundation. During these lessons, we’ve worked hard to develop our aiming, learn different types of passes, and strengthen our teamwork skills. We’ve also enjoyed playing some fantastic basketball matches! In gymnastics, we’ve focused on improving our balance and practising a variety of jumps using different pieces of equipment. We were even brave enough to jump off the highest bench!
For European Day of Languages, we enjoyed learning all about Italy — its famous landmarks, delicious food, and some simple Italian greetings. We then created some fantastic artwork, using tissue paper to make our very own Italian flags!
We were fortunate to have a visit from Nissan Sunderland, where we learned about the cars made at the Sunderland plant, the history of how Nissan began, and their most popular models. We then put our imaginations to the test by designing and building our own cars using LEGO. We carefully identified the parts needed to make our cars work and added our own creative modifications!
