Where children come first Marlfields is a very special school. It is small enough to allow all staff to know all the pupils, whether they teach them or not.

The staff are highly committed to the aims and ethos of the School, dedicated to developing the full potential of all. We are committed to focusing on the individual and allowing pupils to grow in a pleasant and friendly atmosphere. The School has a non-selective entry but achieves a great deal. HMI inspector for Ofsted report was very favourable and commented most positively on not only the acade

Today Year 5 learnt how to kayak. We played games like Colour Domination where you had to tap the back of your opponents kayak 3 times. It was tricky when we had to line up and hold each others’ kayaks. Some children over came their initial fear and built up quite a speed! Alice was really proud of herself because she didn’t think she could do it but by the end of the session she was a whizz!

https://blog.marlfieldsprimary.co.uk/year-4-science-switches/

During our exploration and investigations of electricity we have learnt about direct current and static electricity, complete circuits, bulbs, motors, wires, conductors and insulators.
This week we have asked ourselves why we use switches, what kinds of switches we know of and use and what would happen if we didn’t have the use of switches.
The children then attempted to make their own switches. Creating circuits and using a buzzer the children had to creat a switch for a science quiz at the end of the day.
