Christ Church CE Primary School - Birkenhead

Year 2 have had a fabulous afternoon. came into school and delivered a workshop on pond dipping with us which linked beautifully to two of our science topics: animals including humans and living things and their habitats. We explored pond water using pipettes and a digital microscope. We observed lots of interesting creatures and are happy to hear that they will be returned to their natural habitats.

Year 1 and year 4 had a brilliant time at their OPAL stay and play yesterday! They loved showing their parents all of our lovely new playground features and enjoying some extra playtime with their friends. Thank you to all of the parents who came!

What an amazing opportunity for Year 5 & 6. We visited Future Yard and experienced some live music. We then split into groups to master song writing, producing music, and market design. The absolute highlight of the trip was learning to become light technicians to set the vibe for the studio! 🎸🎤🎵🎶

Earlier this week, year 6 enjoyed testing out a homemade seismograph when learning about how earthquakes are measured! We also thought carefully about the primary and secondary effects of earthquakes, before finding out how engineers design earthquakes-proof buildings

Year 5 enjoyed a writing workshop at the library this week. We discovered lots of facts about the exhibition ‘Black British Ballet’ coming to the library soon. We found about some inspirational ballet dancers who strived to reach their goals even when they encountered prejudice and discrimination. To conclude our learning, we enjoyed writing about what we had learnt and thinking about our own goals for the future.

Year 4 showed excellent resilience and hope in their sports day trials!

Year 2 have had the best morning at Birkenhead Library. We were invited to a workshop all about the book, ‘Onisere and the Ballet Queen’. We got to do lots of dancing and learnt all about the history of black British dancers in the ballet.

What a lovely afternoon we had in year 4🥰 we learned all about the Pentecost and made fans to ‘fan the flame of the holy spirit’ followed by a refreshing ice pop outside (and a great game of duck, duck, goose!)
