James and the Giant Peach characters come to life in 3rd Class

This week, Mr Smyth’s 3rd Class completed their clay creations of characters from their novel “James and the Giant Peach”. They made 3-D representations of Earthworm, Miss Spider, Sponge, Spider, the Peach, Centipede and many more. Today, they added a splash of colour to their clay work using bright acrylic paints. Check out some pictures below.

Coding in 2nd Class

We had lots of fun using Scratch coding platform as part of STEM in 2nd Class to explore the basics of computer programming. We hope to cover a few lessons to keep developing our skills. Scratch is free to sign up to and use. Maybe the children can show you at home what they can do!
