Tuesday 1 April 2025 Science Fair! On Tuesday 18th March, over 50 children from across both our schools took place in the inaugural 10:10 Federation Science Extravaganza! We had over 150 visitors to see exhibitions ranging from exploding volcanoes to strawberry DNA extraction! What was so impressive was the huge amount of work that had gone in to each and every single display, with the children able to explain the science behind their investigation too. The judges had an extremely difficult time - thank you so much to them for donating their time and energy. The exhibition really did embody all of our school values, especially as there were children joining in from every class from YR to Y6. Thank you to all of those children who took part, their parents and carers for supporting them and coming into school for the afternoon and to everyone who helped with the organisation, especially Mr Emmett. What a fantastic celebration of British Science Week at our wonderful federation.

Thursday 27 March 2025 Knight School We had a great time at knight school today. We spent the morning making our hobby horses which was really enjoyable, all the children really engaged with it and it was brilliant hearing the range of names children chose for their noble steed, from Sparkles to Derek! In the afternoon we had a puppet show telling the story of ‘The Worst Princess’ by Anna Kemp. We then went into the hall where the children learnt to ride and race their horses, joust, save courtiers from a dragon and then at the end they all got knighted. They are now officially knights of Goudhurst!

Live learning in action, resulting in some of the children opting to carry out their own independent research into birds of prey.

Thursday 20 March 2025 Hippo Class this week This week we welcomed the start of spring and have enjoyed lots of time in the sunshine. In maths this week we have begun a 2 week unit on patterns and the children have really impressed me on how quickly they have picked up completing repeating patterns. In phonics we have learnt the trigraph ‘air’ and in writing they have wowed me yet again with their writing on castles. Our story of the week is ‘The very last castle’ and the children have really engaged with this story, all about a girl who wants to explore the last castle in her town. In PSHE this week we talk about how to care for our world and in RE we are continuing our learning on the Easter Story. In PE we continued to develop our jumping skills, remembering to use our arms and bend our knees to help us. Every week in our music lesson we listen and respond to a song or piece of music; we dance to it and then talk about it afterwards. We then play a game where we listen to the pulse of a
