We had so much fun raising money for Children in Need. We found out all about the charity behind Pudsey bear, came into school in our own clothes, loved our Pudsey biscuits and took part in lots of Pudsey activities.
In Year 3, we have been thoroughly enjoying our Thursday Tranquil Treehouse sessions. We have been learning lots about how our brain works. In addition to this, we have learnt many useful techniques to relax and calm ourselves down when we feel angry and stressed. Here is some of us enjoying some of our favourite yoga moves!
Check out our amazing odd socks to celebrate Odd Socks Day 2021.
It has been an opportunity to encourage all of us to express ourselves, celebrate our individuality and what makes us all unique and special.
Monday will be Odd Socks Day in school. Children are to come to school in uniform but are allowed to wear ‘odd socks’. It’s a great way to celebrate what makes us all unique in Anti-Bullying Week!
Anti-Bullying Week is coordinated In England and Wales by the Anti-Bullying Alliance and takes place from 15 to 19 November 2021 and it has the theme One Kind Word. The week will begin with Odd Socks Day on Monday 15th.
Kindness is more important today than it has ever been. The isolation of the last year has underlined how little acts of consideration can break down barriers and brighten the lives of the people around us. This is one of the reasons, that ‘One Kind Word’ has been chosen as the theme of Anti-Bullying Week taking place from 15 to 19 of November 2021.
At Harton Primary, we will be embracing the ‘One Kind Word’ theme and celebrating the week with a range of activities. We are looking forward to a kindness filled week.
Last week, the children in year 4 carried out research all about Katherine Johnson. She was a black American mathematician who was responsible for calculating some of the most important and famous space flight routes including the Project Mercury missions and the Apollo missions. We used our research to create biographies all about this inspiring figure in history.
During Black History Week in school, Y6 have learned all about Nelson Mandela.
Did you know that Nelson Mandela was the first black president of South Africa? He became a President after serving 27 years in prison. He was imprisoned for trying to end apartheid in South Africa which segregated white and black people and meant that white people had more rights than black people.
We have enjoyed researching and writing a biography about this very influential man.
We are planting wildflower seeds to create more areas for our pollinators, and reusing water from our water butt, and milk containers as watering cans.
With children and adults spending more and more time online, here are some guides to help support both parents and children online.

Some of our allotment club helped to pull up and pick some vegetables. They will be used by our school cook to offer tasters to pupils. It’s good to find out where our food comes from.
