Haringey Shed worked with year 3 to create a show based on ‘Light and Shadows’ because that is what our Science topic was. The children paired up and one child was the other childs shadow. Their shadow played tricks on them when they weren’t looking and then they lost them. So they used a torch […]

We have been reading The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe by C S Lewis.

This week Year 6 have done an experiment to see what would happen if a piece of dry bread and a piece of wet bread were left for three weeks. The dry bread went hard and stale with a little bit of blue mould whereas the wet bread decomposed, had black mould and, quite frankly, stunk.
Orange Class had an amazing time at London Zoo learning about different animal groups. It was difficult to choose a favourite animal but the Penguin Show was big hit with everyone.
Do children get faster as they get older?First children put the stages of a human life in order on a timeline. We discussed what changes to our bodies at each stage.
