The Netball champions!




The netball team in Ladygrove park primary school have done very well in the matches this year. We have played 5 games and we have won 3. Unfortunatly we lost against Hagbourne and Blewbury. The Hagbourne score being 7-4 to them, and the Blewbury score being 5-1 to them.




But luckily we have won against South Morten, Fir Tree and Cholsey. The South Morten score was 10 -1 to us, the Fir Tree score was 5-1 to us and the Cholsey score was 15 nil. But all the players from Cholsey who were playing in the match were either in year 4 or year 5. Also most of them had never played before so we all felt rather bad when we found that out.




On Saturday 1st of March we are playing in the Manor tournament against all different around Didcot. We are all very excited about this and are all hoping for the best!!

The sun in our school!


Two people, called jo & chris, came to our school from culham science center. They brought an inflateable dome (Shown in picture above) with a projector shining in the inside. We watched a documentry about the sun on the projector (we had to lie down because it was shining on the cieling). It felt like we were there! It was about how the sun made energy by fusing atoms together. Then we played a game to show how atoms act by following one person and running away from another. Then we watched a second film about how thay were going to make a mini sun. It was all explained in afun and interesting way.They also explaned about the other planets and how stars are formed. It was really fun and interesting! :)

Class 15 - Term 2 Week 4

We have had a very busy week this week.

On Tuesday we made our European Pizzas that we planned linked to our topic of 'Euroquest'. We chose toppings that orginate in different european countries. The most popular choices were: Mozarella. Chorizo, Salami and Frankfurters.







On Wednesday we were lucky to have a visit from Marcel who organised a music workshop for us based on the computer software 'O-Generator'. We all became budding songwriters and learnt how to put music together using drums, guitars
and voices.


This linked nicely into Friday when Ms Brooks helped us to prepare for our Year 6 Eurovision Song Contest. We looked at some previous Eurovision contestants and voted for our favourite in the style of the Eurovision Song Contest based on costume, song and dance.

We then chose a well known song and changed the lyrics to a more European theme and made our singing and dancing as cheesy as possible. Some of our costumes were quite spectacular. The Weathermen proved to be clear winners at the end of the competition with their own 'european' rendition of 'It's raining men.'
