Easter Service

The whole school conducted a beautiful Easter service at Holy Trinity Church, yesterday morning.

The service started with Mr Barnes and his choir, singing their song ‘From Now On’ from the musical ‘The Greatest Showman’- which they sang in the Oswestry Music Festival, earlier in the year; placing third.

Haughmond sang ‘Hosanna’ with Longmynd class.

Stiperstones sang ‘Were you there’ with Hawkstone class

 

 

Our week in Haughmond

We have had a busy few weeks since the start of our new Spring term 1

Haughmond have started our new book the Selfish Giant and have already written some fantastic letters and poems.

The children seem to be really enjoying this new book.

In RE this week we have been learning about the pillars of Islam and we have used the pillars to connect with our school value of Hope and how the pillars can help us connect with hope for our friends, our school, ourselves, our family and others around the world.

In PE we have started our gymnastic lessons and will now be having this lesson on a Friday instead of a Thursday.

In Science this  week we were able to study a real heart and learn more about the circulatory system. We were able to learn about how our blood cells collect oxygen from the lungs and travels all around our body.

Finally, we had a visit from PC Katie Le Clere – who is the Youth Engagement Officer – West  Erica Police. She gave us lots of information on how we can keep ourselves safe with particular emphasis on drugs and knife crime.

 

It’s beginning to look like Christmas in Haughmond

December has arrived and we have put up the Christmas tree and are getting into the Christmas spirit.

We have enjoyed making some stained glass windows which reflected in our RE learning ~ looking at are through religious education, we focussed on the Christmas theme.

We continued to work on our chassis for our moving vehicles and this week attached our wheels to an axil.

Finally, we are still enjoying our Music on Jazz  and our work on Web pages in ICT

 

Our week in Haughmond

What another busy week we have had in Haughmond this week.

We really enjoyed making our circuits and investigated what would happen adding more cells and bulbs.

We also celebrated Anti bullying Week with Odd Sock Day.

We have started a new Music unit of Jass and played a very tricky piece on our glockenspiels.

Our class took part in a special Picture News on the Protected Characteristics. These characteristics are part of our British Values and help us understand respect and tolerance.

Finally, we really enjoyed celebrating Children in Need

 

 

What a great first week back of our new Autumn Term

Good afternoon everyone.

Just wanted to say what a wonderful and busy first week back we have had.

We have started our new Electricity topic and will be getting all the components out next week.  We have written some amazing poems about tigers and learnt a range of vocabulary. We have also started our new topic on Early Islamic Civilization and have put some of the early events into chronological order.

We have all been working hard at fractions this week in maths.

Finally we said thank you to our soldiers that have fought for us during past centuries.

 

Haughmond take on Picasso and show off their Happy music skills.

We have had another busy week in Haughmond.

The children have all been learning about the artist of Picasso and have made some excellent fact files. This week they decided to look more carefully about the Cubist Movement of Picasso and wanted to draw their own Picasso faces.

Can you perhaps guess who they belong to?

In music – they have been learning how to put their percussion instruments to Happy

What a talented class we have.
