πβ¨ Our Year 5 writers are bringing history to life! β¨π Our Year 5 students are researching, imagining, planning and crafting powerful historical narratives that transport readers straight into the past! With pens racing across the page, ideas bursting with energy and determination shining in every face, our young authors are creating characters who dash through crowded streets, scramble for safety, whisper urgent messages and battle against impossible odds. They are carefully weaving historical facts into dramatic stories filled with tension, courage and adventure. Year 5 is proving that history is not just something we read about, it is something we can feel, see and experience through the power of words! π₯βοΈπ

Biblical Micrography in Year 2! Our Year 2 students have been exploring, 'The Great Commission' (Matthew 28:16β20) as part of our learning about the Sacraments and Godβs grace. Students first chose a symbol or image connected to the Scripture, then carefully created their design with a word or phrase from the scripture that was important to them. This process encouraged them to slow down, reflect on the meaning of the Scripture and creatively represent their understanding. Jesus reminds his disciples to go out and share the Good News, promising that he will be with us always. This connects beautifully with our learning that Godβs grace is a gift, made visible and celebrated through the Sacraments. It was wonderful to see our students combine faith, scripture, creativity and reflection in their beautiful artwork! π
