    Fri 29 Aug 2025

    Base 3 have had an arty start to the year. All the wonderful art that the children did over the holidays is now on display in the classroom and today we were learning about typography.

  • Tag Rugby

    Mon 30 Jun 2025

    A team of eight Y5 & Y6 children attended the local rugby tournament at the ever-welcoming Melton Rugby Club today. Despite never having played as a team before, they did exceptionally well and quickly came together as a very efficient team, winning nearly all of their games and coming second in the competition overall. What's more, our team won the coveted 'Spirit of the Games' award for the side that showed the best attitude, sportsmanship and honesty. Well done!

  • Sculpture

    Wed 18 Jun 2025

    In Base 3 we have been exploring two big questions recently:

    • What makes art art?
    • Does the way in which objects are presented affect our perception of them?

    As part of this work, we looked for small objects to present as sculptures and we even made plinths for them. We tried to imagine what it would be like if these objects were enormous and so we made minifigures of ourselves to help us visualise this. 

  • Bradgate Park

    Wed 18 Jun 2025

    Base 1 and Base 2 enjoyed a lovely sunny day at Bradgate Park, enjoying the wildlife and learning about stone age people.
