Already into March
We are already into March - my how the year is flying. We have had heat and floods but we enjoy school where we get to do some amazing things, thanks to Sue (art), Jane (drama), Pete (music) and of course all the sfaff in Rooms 6 and 7.
Dance Mat Typing - click here to link you to a touch typing program that will help you increase your keyboard skills.

Science in Room 7
This week we made our own version of a Lava Lamp using oil and water and some drops of food colour. We made the blobs of colour move by adding a fizzing Aspro Clear tablet......great fun.
