Wow - watch our videos and you will gain an understanding of the cultural diversity in our classroom. Students explain the significance of the mask they have made - either a direct link to their ancestors or a significant figure from their cultural heritage. What a diverse group of students we have and what marvellous masks they have created - such a wide range of materials and techniques were used to create their masks!

 

 

 

 

 

Please view and comment on our FIRST EVER MOVIE!!
 We composed this movie to enter the HP Technology Upgrade Competition - three minutes was not a lot of time to get our message across and next time we will experiment with adding sounds! We cant wait to make more movies what do you think?

How would you describe your family in a poem? Students have used metaphors to describe each member of their family on a common theme.

 

 

 

Cardboard tubes, old drawers, curtain rail, hosing, ball cocks, boxes and wood found new life in the Senior Room this week as they became marvellous marble rolling 'machines'. The Seniors third Creativity Challenge of the year was to create a marble roller within the dimensions 1 metre X 1 metre x 1/2 metre using recycled materials. Rollers were tested by timing the marbles path from top to bottom. Olly’s roller was declared the winner with a cunning combination of ball cock vortexes and ramps - the marble took 21 seconds to complete its course. Second equal were Dylan, who cleverly converted a chest of drawers into a series of ramps, and Gemma whose creation looked similar to the hydro-slide at the Aquatic Centre!  Unity created a stunning three layered platform roller with a combination of mazes which unfortunately was not within specifications but took out third place. Congratulations to all students who completed the Challenge all rollers were a testament to student's perseverance and problem solving skills.  

Its hard to learn the difference between a simile and a metaphor but we think we have done a great job! Our efforts have been enhanced with selected photos for visual imagery.

 

More magnificent emotions poems - 'Stressed' by Bryn, 'Devastated' by Dylan, 'Cunning' by Gemma and 'Delighted' by Madi.

 

 

Senior Students have explored the them 'Emotions' to create some effective emotions poems which they have published with visual imagery for increased impact
