*Doves navigate using angles and degree turns

Today, the children have navigated a partner to reach a goal. They had to use directions including quarter, half and full turns and their corresponding angles. The children really enjoyed 'programming' their partner to reach their destination whilst avoiding obstacles.

The children have loved exploring obtuse, acute and right angles. They worked in teams to draw their own examples on the playground and labelled them accordingly.

This year the focus is 'Impact' with the symbol a flame. We created stained glass window candles to help us think about what we can do to have an impact on others.

Our trip on the Naughty bus

What beautiful weather we had for our ride out on the Naughty Bus! We saw lots of different features of our local environment on our bus ride, but because it was such a clear day we could see the snow capped mountains of the Lake District too! The children were brilliant at paying for their bus tickets!
