Year Six have been very busy this week, taking part in a range of Book Week activities. Though the circumstances of Book Week this year have been different to previous years, the engagement has been just as impressive, with children going to enormous effort with their work. Some entries to the book competition have already come […]
A little bit of a different one today, but just as important! This career could be for those of you that are good with technology and enjoy working with machines!
Are you amazing at spelling? Are you able to use punctuation in different ways? The proof reader works with the author checking for any mistakes. This is such an important job to make the book the best it can be before it goes on sale.
Do you have fantastic drawing skills? Have you ever wondered where they could be used? An illustrator could be the perfect career for you, allowing your imagination and drawing skills work together to create images for different books. Next time you read a book pay attention to all of the images and notice the work […]

Keep up the amazing […]
Year Four had lots of fun last week creating new creatures as a stimulus for their non-chronological report writing in English. After watching the Marshmallow monster, they each had to create a new monster/creature, think about it’s appearance, habitat, diet, movements etc, before recording all of this information in a report. Well done Year Four, […]
