Shout out to Sienna in Year 5! Sienna has taken part in a number of local competitions and festivals, where she has had a very successful season. She has been awarded both silver and gold medals across multiple categories! Looking ahead, Sienna and her dance group will be attending the Regional Finals during the May half term. This is a significant accomplishment in itself, and the group has been working extremely hard together to reach this stage. Even more excitingly, the Sienna and her dance group has also qualified for the Dance World Cup this summer, which will take place in Dublin. This is a huge accolade and a fantastic opportunity for them. Well done to Sienna and her team!
As part of their Art learning, Year 6 have been exploring different styles of graffiti and learning about famous graffiti artists, such as Banksy. They have been experimenting with creating their own tags using bubble writing and wildstyle lettering techniques. The children have thoroughly enjoyed expressing their creativity and developing their own unique artistic styles.
