Manor Park

The children have been enjoying the enrichment curriculum on Friday afternoons.

This week in D&T, Year 3 have been designing and creating their own chocolate packaging. We created nets with tabs and scored and folded each side to create 3D shapes.

Well done to our upper phase SOAR Superstars this week!

This week, Year 1 enjoyed adding to their learning about seasons with their walk to The Memorial Park to explore the different signs of Spring! We saw blossom coming out on the trees and lots of daffodils!

In Year 2 this week we have been taking inspiration from the Baptistry window in Coventry Cathedral and have painted our own stained glass windows

In The Hive we created some independent art work based on the book 'Dear Zoo'. We also enjoyed doing some baking and went to visit the chicks in Nursery!

Class 6 had a mechanical afternoon on Wednesday, designing and building sliders. We thought about the movements our sliders would make, and carefully used our scissors to cut out the space for the handle. They looked brilliant, and moved fantastically!

Year 5 thoroughly enjoyed planting trees within the Cheylesmore community this week! Together we planted 600 trees and we cannot wait to see them grow!🌳

Our Junior PCSOs have been out this morning monitoring the traffic outside of school. Great job everyone 👍

On Tuesday, Year 2 learnt about Amelia Earhart and her famous solo trip across the Atlantic. The children conducted eyewitness interviews around what they saw when she landed on a farm in Northern Ireland. 🛩️

Year 3 had a visit from the police this week! We learnt all about their roles and their uniform and equipment! 🚓

Last week, we were so impressed by the number of entries for our science week competition! All of the projects were of such a high standard & we are very proud to have so many hard workers at Manor Park! Well done to our super scientists who were awarded their prize in assembly🌟

Year 1 had fun exploring at All Things Wild yesterday, learning about and interacting with lots of different animals 🦕🐇

In Reception we have started our Kings & Queens topic. For the first part of our learning, we learnt all about the capital of England, London! We have drawn a map of London which included lots of famous landmarks, wrote a letter to the King and even made some London landmarks🇬🇧👑

On Monday, Year 3 had a fabulous day out at Cadbury World where they learnt about the history of chocolate and the process cocoa goes through to become chocolate 🍫

Well done to our Upper Phase SOAR superstars. Super learning this week - well done

Congratulations to the Manor Park netball team who won their netball match yesterday against Stivichall Primary. The score was 1-13! Well done!🏐

This week in Nursery the children have continued their learning about farm animals. Over the week the children have watched chicks hatch from eggs. They have learned how chicks grow and how to look after them. 🐣

Children across the school have loved celebrating all things reading on Thursday. Children visited the book fair, battled against each other to decide which book character was the best, swapped year groups to complete fantastic creative activities & had an exciting live lesson!📚

A huge congratulations to one of our Year 4 pupils who won the 'Coventry Building Society Young Writer of the Year' competition. What a fantastic achievement; we are all very proud of you.
