On Wednesday we had a special visit from Mr Olteneau who works for the Land Rover company. He taught us about how cars work – we learned about dampers and shock absorbers.

This week is Science Week so on Wednesday we brought in our science projects to show to some younger children and our parents.  We also did a class investigation about the wing length of helicopters.

Today is red nose day so we all were asked to wear silly socks. On Thursday we brought in 50p so we could buy a red nose.

In maths we have just finished learning about perimeters. First we calculated them then we measured them. You can see our perimeters drawing on the playground if the rain has not washed them away!

This afternoon, we ended the week with an exciting talk about ENGINEERING by Mrs Helen Burbidge.  Her job sounds very exciting and we learned lots about the sorts of things engineers do every day.  

Have a lovely weekend,
