The annual museum day was a huge success with children across the trust displaying artistic and design skills in abundance.
It was lovely to see the creative efforts of the children today during Museum Day.
Year 6 have had a fabulous week, concluding their work on Ancient Egypt.
We have had a wonderfully creative week. Year 6 have been creating death masks and learning about mummification, the process of preserving bodies ready for the afterlife.
Wow! What a feast for the eyes- Museum Day has arrived.
EPS’s football teams have been celebrating after a pair of fantastic victories.
This week we have been thinking about our most important Pegasus value, -‘we care’, thinking carefully about how we show that to others, and ourselves.
The Whitehorse and Cypress football teams have both been training hard in anticipation for the long awaited rematch.
This week we have continued thinking about ‘reciprocity’ and in particular, listening and speaking in pairs or a group.
As part of our thematic learning, Year 6 have been studying the Ancient Egyptian irrigation mechanism for taking water from the River Nile to irrigate their crops.
Years 5 and 6 were treated to a very informative presentation by Natalie from the Idling Project, an initiative which aims to teach everyone about the impact of idling cars on air pollution.
This half-term we are working hard to develop our oracy skills; we have been thinking about oracy carefully and have decided that good listening skills are a prerequisite to good speaking skills.
Following the success of the Whitehorse Year 5 and 6 Indoor Athletics Team at the qualifying event in December, the team attended the finals event on Wednesday to compete against the other qualifying schools.
Happy New Year to all of our Cypress families! We hope you have had a restful holiday.
