IN PE year 5/6 (or Eagle Class) have been playing ball games. It is to improve our team and ball skills. Games such as dodge ball, bench ball, football etc.

IN YEAR 3 we have been learning about The Great Fire of London. We have enjoyed learning about it and it is very fun. We have written newspaper articles about what happened on the 2nd of September 1666 in Pudding Lane. We have also drawn and painted pic-tures of the fi re. The writ-ing and painting was hard

but I still enjoyed it. The fi re started when the baker went outside and he forgot to check on his bread, the fi re spread quickly because the buildings were made of wood and really close together. Many buildings were destroyed, including St Paul’s Cathedral.

Lego Review

I like collecting and play-ing Lego. My favourite Lego characters are the skeletons, I have 4 regular skeletons, 6 training skel-etons and 9 Ninjago skel-etons’, which all have hats and weapons. I have been playing with Lego for four years and it is my favourite thing to do. If you want to buy Lego I would suggest the skeleton figures.

JokesMiss! Miss! Tommy stole my ruler. How?I smashed it over his head.

On 16 March 2012, year 4 had to get to school

on time. This was to make sure they were in school to get the coach to London. Year 4 went to the Royal Albert Hall for a concert. It took the children about two and half hour to get to London. It was very excit-ing; there was a thousand children and teachers, who were there to listen to the concert.

Year Four to the Royal Albert Hall

LENT IS Is a time when we remember the time when Jesus stayed in the des-ert for forty days and forty nights. While Jesus was in the desert the Devil ar-rived and tried to tempt Jesus with nice things if he stopped loving God and loved the Devil. Jesus re-fused to listen to the Devil and stayed in the des-ert with nothing to eat or drink, but God protected him. In lent we try to give up

IN SCHOOL have been preparing for Easter. The lessons we are learning in R.E are all about the impor-tance of Lent. During Lent I gave up crisps and Ribena. The reason for us giving up our favourite things is to help us remember that Jesus died on the cross to forgive us of our sins. Joseph Nash

Film Review: Star Wars - Episode III-VI

I LIKE this fi lm because it has spaceships and it reveals that Anakin Sky-walker is DarthVader. This is very exciting because it only happens at the end so it makes you really want to watch Episode 4. The only thing missing from Episode 3 is the Millen-nium Falcon, which is my favourite spaceship and is Episode 4. I also like Episode 6 be-cause Luke Skywalker is a Jedi and Episode 5 because Han Solo got trapped in carbonite. This is scary be-cause Han Solo is a good guy. And Han Solo was put in Jaba’s Palace.

Toy Review: Monster high dolls

THERE ARE a lot of monster high dolls to collect such as Cleo Di Nile, Operetta, Toralei and Abby Abomi-nable. We think that Cleo is the best. They all have a special skull. We wish we could go to monster high. They are very popular so get them quick because they will be fl ying off the shelves.

LOOK CAREFULLY at the center circles on both the left and right. Which circle is bigger? Are you sure they aren’t both the same size?

This relative size illusion is called the Ebbinghaus il-lusion. It was discovered by Hermann Ebbinghaus, a German psychologist, in the early 1900s.
