North Hinksey Primary School

Corvus and Draco have been keeping cool in the heat with their watercolour painting. They created their own version of ‘Hilda’ from the book series by Luke Pearson

Today Draco and Corvus, had a great time at the Museum of Oxford. They learnt how rivers, railways and roads helped build the city we live in today. They also thought of what transport could exist in 100 years time that could solve some of the problems of today. They then enjoyed a calm visit to Christchurch Meadow where they used watercolours to capture the boats on the river.

This morning Aquila took part in primary PE day as part of a transition activity. We had a great time in the sun and getting to know new people!

Ursa took a local visit to learn about road safety. Stop. Look. Listen. Think.

We won! Well done to Team North Hinksey for winning the West Oxford Spring Sprint Challenge! We travelled more km than the other schools locally! Thank you for all of the travel logged by parents and children over the month of May!

Delphinus had the best time focusing on improving their agility, hand eye coordination in dodgeball. These skills are so important and are transferable to many aspects of the curriculum! 👏🏼🏃🏼‍♀️

🎶 Delphinus have learnt about the orchestra and how instruments are grouped. We listened to lots of great music and enjoyed practising being conductors. 🎶

Quote of the day: “Living my best plant life indoors!” In Science, Draco enjoyed carrying out an experiment to show the way in which water is transported within plants! 🌱 learning

Cricket practise for Reception class today.

It’s Reception places day! We’re excited to welcome our new Reception class and will be sending out details of our transition plans later this term when places have been accepted. We’ve got a few spaces and so if you’re wondering what we’re about or didn’t think you’d get a place, get in touch and we’ve got a space for your child.
