Science

Brundall Primary School believes science is valuable as it can help prepare the children for their later life. In science we learn about lots of things including gasses, light and dark, plants, space and a lot more. At our school we think that science gives children a good hand for what they do in their further life. The children here have great back ups like our schools interactive whiteboard and we also have a model of the human skeleton. We don’t use any dangerous chemicals at our school so your child will not be under any risks. Chemicals are a risk to children so we think they should be banned from primary schools, do you agree?

Languages

In languages we learn German, French and Latin. In Latin you learn songs; you will also learn how to say your name and lots more speech. The way we learn speech is we read stories from that time.

German is a language that pupils learn in year four .Children learns how to say sports, animals, songs, colours and speech. You learn how to say different sports like football, tennis and lots more. Speech is the most important as you learn how to say hello, bye and how are you, with lots more. This also happens in French.

When your child does french, they sing songs like frere Jacques. They also will make up songs using colours and other words that they know. They will watch videos of real French people having conversations.

This also happens in German. Learning French helps children to understand that everyone speaks differently and it is extremely fun in class to watch the videos and listen to the pronunciation. Your child will enjoy playing games as it helps them remember different speech and they are superb.

P.E

During indoor P.E, we learn a combination of dancing routines, related to our learning and perform gymnastic sequences. In these lessons the children cover similar objectives by performing counter balance, counter tension and gymnastic things like cartwheels, bridges and headstands.

In outside PE, the pupils do lots of sports on the field. I will start with rugby. In rugby we learn to pass and shoot. You need to run with the ball and touch it on the floor in a certain area to score a try.

Swimming is based at Thorpe high school. We are taught by different teachers and the pupils do it on days like Tuesday and Friday also Wednesday. The people who swim learn lots of things like kick and all four strokes.

Art

Art is an enriching lesson. It is one of the most creative lessons in Brundall School.

Clay is the most used materials’ here. We make lots of different things like animals, people and pots. Also, we have shaving foam for KS1, so they can draw and make pictures in the foam. The reason why we do art is because it lets their imagination go wild like a monkey in the jungle. It helps them get a good hand for what they do in their later life. They’re passionate about their work and by the end of their time here they are all master drawers.
