Food in DT, by Miss Kyte

In our DT lessons we have been looking at preparing different snacks and meals. This half term we have made jam sandwiches, cheese sandwiches and fruit kebabs. We have also looked at the preparations that are necessary before handling food. We wrote instructions and discussed the importance of hygiene, making sure our hands and the equipment we were using are all safe and clean.

Remembrance Day 2016, by Mr Whelan

Date: 11th Nov 2016 @ 11:43am

On 11th November at 11am we held a Remembrance Assembly so we could remember all those who have died, especially in wars. The Year 6 children had made poppy wreaths and we all listened to some poems, prayed and had a two minute silence.

We were very lucky to have Mr Murray lead our 2 minute silence by playing the 'Last Post' on the cornet. The "Last Post" is a cavalry trumpet call used in military funerals and ceremonies commemorating those who have been killed in war. He then finished the two minute silence by playing 'Reveille'. The two tunes symbolise sunset and sunrise respectively, and therefore, death and resurrection. Thank you Mr Murray!
