Welcome to Lostledan

Snuggling up with a blanket and a good book makes me happy! I love to read Julia Donaldson stories to others and I think they are always so beautifully written, with very clever rhymes! The illustrations are always very interesting to look at, sometimes you find characters from other Julia Donaldson stories hiding in them! I love the story of The Gruffalo as the smallest character saves the day and shows how brave they can be regardless of size!
I am a big fan of Roald Dahl as I grew up listening to my teachers and parents reading them to me as a child. My favourite Roald Dahl story has to be Matilda and I loved it so much that I have seen the London Theatre performance of it!

Miss Evens

My favourite book is the Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. I first read this book when I was 11 years old and subsequently read the sequels. Although I love the trilogy, my favourite just has to be The Fellowship of the Ring, where I was first introduced to Frodo Baggins, Samwise Gamgee, Meriadoc Merry Brandybuck and Peregrin Pippin Took. I have since read the books multiple times and have always loved their friendship from the onset and how they are cheeky, yet innocent hobbits that have their world turned upside down because of their bravery and pride to do the right thing. J. R. R. Tolkein is fantastic at creating imagery that transports you from The Shire to Mount Doom. He makes me feel like I am one of the hobbits on their journey with them, going through the trials and tribulations.

Portraits of Monarchs
 
After looking at photographs and paintings of different monarchs, we decided to make our own portraits! We used paint and gems to create our very own crowns! What do you think of our designs?
Snack Packs
 
After learning about healthy and balanced diets, we spent time designing, costing and creating our very own 'snack packs'. We advertised and sold our healthy snack packs to pupils across the school and raised £22.00! We have decided to buy a wooden plaque for the school's new herb garden.
Burps, Bottoms and Bile!
 
We have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Year 4s for our topic 'Burps, Bottoms and Bile'! As well as conducting some hands-on experiments, we created our own t-shirts of the digestive system! What do you think?
Tudor Times
 
Since revealing the next monarch on our timeline as Henry VIII, we have been learning all about his six wives! This morning, we painted portraits of Catherine of Aragon, Anne Boleyn, Jane Seymour, Anne of Cleves, Catherine Howard and Catherine Parr. Check out our work! 
The Battle of Hastings
 
Today, we learned all about the first Norman King of England, William the Conqueror. We made our own swords and shields and re-enacted The Battle of Hastings in our playground - it was fantastic! 
Happy Fathers' Day!
 
We decided to design and create some Ancient Egyptian coasters from clay, as Fathers' Day gifts. We used hieroglyphics to create secret messages for our Dads - we hope you liked them!
Pasta Pyramids
 
Miss Molden set us a challenge to complete with a buddy! We made pyramids from pasta and card. We persevered and the finished products looked great...!
Planting Story Boxes
 
We have been thinking about what plants need to grow and recently had a wonderful opportunity to take part in a planting competition! We had so much fun planting story boxes, based on the traditional tales 'The Ugly Duckling', 'Beauty and the Beast' and 'Humpty Dumpty'.
Red Nose Day 2019
 
We raised £100.00 for Comic Relief this year; dressing up in red and holding a bake sale! 
Thank you to all the staff, parents and pupils who supported this cause - it is much appreciated.

Kenya!
 
After learning about Mount Kenya and realising it is an inactive volcano, we designed and conducted our own experiments, thinking about what causes a volcanic eruption! We were so surprised to see the reaction that occurred when vinegar was mixed with bicarbonate of soda!
