OASIS 3MP & 3D - Matt Butcher

Students will focus on to the features that living things share and how this compares to non-living things and things that are no longer living.

DigiTech 3BH & 3R - Cam Taylor

Students will explore a range of digital systems and how they use peripheral devices for different purposes, and they will learn ways to transmit different types of data between users and devices.

Students will look at different types of data and how the same data can be represented in different ways.

Art – Lauren Nankervis

Students will discuss how artists express ideas using a variety of materials from different places. They will be creating images with repeated patterns and colour.

Music – Stacie Mason

Students will learn new rhythms – ti-tika and tika-ti (combinations of quavers and semiquavers), using the rhythms to sing, play instruments and write their own composition.

Science – Emma Jensen

Students will learn that heat comes from different sources, can be measured, and moves from one object to another through conduction, convection, and radiation.

PE – Luke Freeman and Class Teachers

Our PE program will begin with swimming lessons, leading into our school swimming sports. Students will then revise the fundamental movement skills of throwing and catching, before moving on to our focus for the term: the forehand strike.

This will be explored through net and wall games, such as tennis and bat tennis. Students will also prepare for and participate in the school cross country.
