Well, he has been taking some lovely photos with it and he sent a few to share with us.
Well done Declan!

Mrs Branch’s Easter Challenge
Hello everybody! I have been decorating some eggs for Easter and though that you might like to see what the Reception teachers look like in egg form! I hope that you all have a lovely Easter. If anyone else decorates any eggs, we would love to see your pictures of them!
The Howard’s Week!
Lewis and Jamie have been very creative this week. They have made a model of the solar system, baked some very tasty chocolate cookies, painted pictures & made some frog cushions!
They have also been practicing their tennis skills and Jamie is learning how to play the keyboard!
For music appreciation this week we have been listening to The Beatles, Queen, 80’s dance classics, Smashing Pumpkins and 90’s indie as well as singing along to all the Disney greats of course!
Hello Lewis and Jamie – sounds like a good week to me!

Seren and Alex Home Learning
Seren is in Year 6 and Alex is in Year Two. Together they have carried out a project on oceans and sea life. They’ve done lots of research and art work linked to this theme.
Every morning they join in with the Joe Wicks lesson and had lots of fun.
Well done Seren and Alex this all looks really good and interesting. The children in school and lots of children at home are all doing the Joe Wicks workout too so Mrs Harvey is very pleased!

Science Experiment Year 5
Harry has been carrying out an experiment at home (under close supervision of his Mum and Dad) and I asked him to write down how he did it.
Harry has a hot wire set and this is how he did it:
LEDs in Parallel
In a parallel both LEDs receive 3V each from the battery and they both light up.It seems as if you are getting more out of the batteries as only 3V is lighting both LEDs, but in reality the batteries will only last half as long as they would if both LEDs were touching each other
Testing Electrical Conductivity
Some materials can conduct electricity (this means that electricity can pass through them), and other materials can’t conduct electricity.
This circuit can test whether different materials are conductors, or non-conductors.
I built the circuit, then I held a spoon across the two terminals A and B. I pressed the button and the light bulb turned on!
From Harry Matthews
Well done Harry! We are all really pleased to see your good work!
We have a video of the experiment on Twitter . Just click on the link. It’s worth a watch!
