Forest School is all about teamwork and today Grebes worked together to saw branches and build dens. Some children chose to clear brambles with the loppers to make the Forest School area safer.

Grebes – Predators and Prey
In Science Year 4 played a game to learn about the relationship between predator and prey populations. They took on the roles of lynxes and snowshoe hares living in the Arctic tundra to see how nature exists in a balance: if there are too many lynxes, they end up starving due to lack of prey; not enough lynxes and the snowshoe hares end up consuming the vegetation… And starving!
Grebes/Herons – Cluster Football Tournament
Our Year 5/6 football team did us proud this week in the Cluster Tournament, finishing 3rd of 8 teams. The players will have a more detailed update coming just after half-term. The next event will be Cluster Cross Country so get training!
